BadAss x 2

This week, I'm featured as the quilter of the week at BadAss Quilters Society!  I'm excited and honored!  Yes, there are pictures of things that I only sewed, but, hey, it was hard work, too!  Thank you, Maddie for featuring me!

 

Speaking of BAQS, Maddie Kertay and Nicole Riveria are hosting a networking gala called The Big Wing Ding, if you are in the Houston area on October 27 (Quilt Market time), the event is 7-9 p.m.  I am a speaker as well Sara Lawson, Megan Frock, Bari J, Ebony Love, and so many more talented ladies!  There is a lot to learn there, we are speaking on our particular interests/expertise, I will speak about building a local sewing community and a little about modern quilting (as an interest, not expertise).  Buy a ticket and come to see us, we could all use the support!

from The Big Wing Ding's event page:

"If your business centers around the rapidly growing and changing quilting market I really encourage you to find time to join us and hear what these industry visionaries have to say! I think we all can agree that a change is in the air and there is no better way to see which way the wind is blowing than to hear people like."

Tickets are for sale here:  The Big Wing Ding

Share with anyone in Houston--friends, guilds, etc.!

Thank you!

Dog Tired

I'm on a roll with pillows and pillowcases these days, our home needs sprucing and pillows have magic powers to liven a room.

           To protect and serve, the pillows

A friend came to a sewcial at Je's Bend and had an awesome pillow form for her pup, I bought 2 and whipped up some covers! We keep one in our bedroom and the other bed in the front of the house, also, I can wash one while he uses one.

 

Bobbin sleeps a lot, he's like a newborn baby with the loose stools.

 

I had a few people ask and I scheduled a class to teach how to sew a dog bed. The class is scheduled for October 19, 2013. E-mail if you would like to enroll and impress your pet.

It's fall break now and I've got a few kids to teach this week, I'm excited and already tired.

Fabrics:
Pillowcases- Cloud 9 fabrics (available at Je's Bend)
