Rose Hughes

thank you

Rose

for your lovely post, written from the heart

 as the saying goes

if you are lucky enough to call Rose "friend"

you are lucky enough

you will find stories about Rose in the very first pages of A Modern Twist

and you will find her books noted in the Sources pages on the last pages of A Modern Twist

 because that's where friends are

they're there at the beginning, and they are there at the end

friendship is not a sometimes thing, it is an every page of the book thing

have you seen Rose's work?

I love her - well, I call it - Studio Work

 Poppy Dreamin'

she just returned from Island Quilter

where many of her pieces were in the gallery

(hope you were able to take her class)

 Mules Ears

one of the most lovely things about Rose

is how much of herself she gives

while her Gallery pieces are just incredible

what is also incredible is how much she shares of her techniques

the very tools she uses to create these masterpieces

 

simple things

mean so much

what needle to use for beading

how to fill up the spaces of a piece with quilting and decorative stitches

how do you do that thing that you do with color

I hope you all have a chance to take a class with Rose

but if you can't, I hope you will add a few of her books to your library

here is the most recent release

Rose Hughes

writes for Martingale/That Patchwork Place

and has a great new book out

right now!

thank you Rose, for being there every page of the book

and thank you for being a part of the BookBlog Tour!

remember to visit every stop along the way

you can leave a comment on every post

and each artist is giving their own ideas on the subjects of

color + contrast + composition
