Patterns and Blocks<\/strong><\/p>\n

Camille Roskelly posted about Market<\/a> and included some info about a new Scraps Inc book. She contributed a quilt, parts of which look like inside out Flying Geese.<\/p>\n

Starting in January, you can help raise money for St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital and get a quilt pattern. Read about it on Camille Roskelley’s blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n

EQ held a BlockBase Sew-along<\/a> back in 2012. In writing a review<\/a> for you, I found it and thought I would share. I would probably get overly ambitious and do something like make all the blocks in a smaller size a la Dear Jane, but this Sew-along is a good start.<\/p>\n

You can always use my pillowcase guidelines<\/a>, but if you want a different experience, take a look at A Spoonful of Sugar’s pillowcase design<\/a>. This is a really pretty post as well.<\/p>\n

Exhibits and Such<\/strong><\/p>\n

BAMQG members have quilts inspired by Amish quilts at the San Jose Museum of Quilts & Textiles. There is a recent, interesting article<\/a> in the San Jose Mercury News, which a friend from Chicago sent me!<\/p>\n

Primal Green 2 is on at the San Francisco Public Library. This is the main branch and the exhibit is on the 5th floor. I have three quilts, Beach Town<\/a>, Flower Garden<\/a> and the Whole Cloth Quilt<\/a> in the show.<\/p>\n

Social Media<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is such a tough time of year to write a blog. I sometimes wonder why I do it and I realized that I wonder that more during this time of year than other times. I get myself back in a right place in my head and remind myself that I do this writing for myself and my blog has become a great resource for myself! I know you are busy, but take a moment to comment on the blog. I get a lot out of your comments and am glad you are reading.<\/p>\n

Tools, Supplies and Fabric<\/strong><\/p>\n

I found out from Alyssa Lichner that she has updatedthe Kona\u00ae Cotton to Aurifil Thread Conversion Chart and you can find it by going to her site<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Media<\/strong><\/p>\n

I heard from Ms. Lottie<\/a> that Linda and Laura Kemshall have a new magazine out, Through Our Hands<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Electric Quilt Company will soon have online classes. Keep checking their website for start dates and titles of classes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
