Kathi Dineen sent me the story that goes with these 7 wonderful quilts…

I have a Hand Appliquetion class every month. Last December I asked the ladies to bring a Christmas project—quilt table runner—pillow etc. I brought my Slice of Christmas quilt and all fell into “let’s do, it”

Here you go 7 quilts finished this year!! Thank you for all you do-love your work!!

Birds in Toyland, Show and Tell…

Connie Werner sent me a photo of her completed Birds in Toyland quilt and it is fantastic! She changed the design of the top, center, block making the tree bend over with the big ornament. That is super cute and I wish I had thought of it myself!

Connie was in one of the original live Birds in Toyland classes that I taught on Creative Spark during the pandemic. She wrote: “This is my finished Birds in Toyland. Your class made COVID shutdown much happier. Thank you for all your wonderful teaching.“

Connie, you are very welcome. This quilt made lots of us happy during that long, trying time—and if you haven’t made it yet, it can still make you happy! You can find the online class here, or the book here. Happy stitching!

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.
