Simply Moderne Issue No. 26

 I have exciting news to share.  

In January 2021, my pattern 'My Way' was chosen by Carol Veillon of Quilt Mania Inc. and now it is in the Simply Moderne Issue #26.  

 

And here it is.

 

 

I made this quilt in May 2020 during the pandemic lock down in LA, you can read about it here.  The idea for this quilt was based on the traditional disappearing nine-patch quilt but with a twist.  

Simply Moderne Issue #26 is out now and available in print or as a digital download with a subscription.  It's filled with great quilts with patterns and interesting articles.  The Simply Moderne magazine is beautifully done and I hope you will have a chance to pick up a copy to see for yourself.   

 

Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!!

A New Project and September OMG finished

 Hi Everyone,

We just came back from a road trip.  We drove over 2,000 miles to Idaho Falls, Salt Lake City and St. George to visit friends and family.  We had a wonderful time catching up with friends whom we haven't seen in a long time.  It's refreshing to be in a place that we didn't have to wear a mask all the time.  I had a first time experience of going to a State Fair in Idaho Falls.  Walking around at the Fair without a mask made life seem normal once again.  We also visited a place called Palisades, Idaho.  It's so beautiful, I took this picture.

Now back home, I got right back to work on the QuiltCon 2022 Fabric Challenge.  I set a goal to finish the top and basting in September.  Now both goals are done. 

Candy Box 3 - Front

Candy Box 3 - Back

Candy Box 3 - Basted

Next will be quilting it and here is the initial plan.  It looks messy because I hand drew it on my iPad with the Apple pencil.   It may change but you get the idea.

 

It's so good to be back.  No matter how much fun we had, it's always good to be back home.  

Don't forget to go to the OMG Finish Link-up to see all projects.

 

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!

Sneak Peek of the New Project and Sept. OMG

I'm participating in the 2022 MQG fabric challenge.  These are the fabrics from Windham Fabric that I'm using for this quilt.

I'm taking a 2-week vacation to Idaho Falls, Salt Lake City and St. George Utah to visit friends and family.  My goal for September is to finish the top and baste this quilt for quilting.   

 

Thanks for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day!
