Watch me tomorrow…

Oops! Sophie is having internet problems so the plan is that we will visit on Friday, same time. I’ll post the link when I have it.

I will be visiting with Sophie Scardaci live tomorrow on by YouTube and Facebook about my new Welcome to the North Pole class! The book has been in print since 1997 (amazing, right?!).

If you have the book but have not made the quilt because the blocks look a little scary, this class is for you! I walk you through all of the needle turn hand applique techniques you need to know to make this quilt.

There isn’t an ebook for Welcome to the North Pole so please be aware that you need to acquire the book separately from the class. There is a free digital table runner pattern included in the class that you can practice techniques on if you prefer.

Wednesday Giveaway – Love & Swear Words Goes to Barbara Patterson!

Some of us are definitely more verbal than others when working on a project. (Judy managed to sew completely through her index finger when making curtains for a friend and NOT say a swear word!) This week Barbara Patterson will be able to “keep it real” with a pack of “Made with Love and Swear Words” labels from Kylie and the Machine to add to her projects. Check out all our labels – Nana Made It, Perfectly Imperfect, Ta-Da! You Are Loved, Look After Me, Handmade, and Grandma Made It, as well as Made with Love and Swear Words.

(For an example of how the attached labels look, see the zipper bag project with the Handmade label.)
