I created a 2025 page<\/a> for the Gallery. I also updated the Gallery page<\/a>. It seemed like a good idea. Do you want to see ALL of my quilts? Go there<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Projects, Classes, Patterns, Techniques & Tutorials<\/strong><\/p>\n

I saw a bag<\/a> that looks like the UCAB<\/a>, but seems to be a better design. I WILL NOT buy the pattern! If you make it, tell me what you think.<\/p>\n

Cyndi showed me a thread catcher or clip holder that I thought was cool. I looked for a tutorial and found one<\/a>! The tutorial mimics the way I thought the item was put together. I think I will try one.<\/p>\n

Spencer Ogg has a pattern called the Curvalicious Zip Wallet<\/a>. I like the curve, but also the diagonal outside pocket. I notice that if I like the fabrics, I am more inclined to think about buying a pattern.<\/p>\n

I just received the Studio 180 Designs Technique Sheet for the Split Recs Ruler. This Technique Sheet has a variety of blocks and shapes you can make with the Split Recs Ruler<\/a>** in addition to HRTs<\/a>. THEN I saw that Mitzie over at Jittery Wings was working with the same shapes<\/a>!! Her blocks look amazing in the AGF solids. I was thinking of trying out this Technique Sheet and exploring the Split Recs Ruler a bit more, but now I HAVE to.<\/p>\n

This triangle thread catcher<\/a> is interesting. I’d like to make some of them.<\/p>\n

Tools, Books, Fabric, Notions, Services & Supplies<\/strong><\/p>\n

I wasn’t that excited about the new Kaffe Collective fabrics<\/a> that were released last month. They are vibrant and colorful, but somehow just didn’t excite me. <\/p>\n

Want to read a brief history of European sewing machines<\/a>?<\/p>\n

Some new fabric, supplies and gifts:<\/p>\n
