...with Angela Walters

there is one more post!

(because you have to go back to yesterday's post!)

...with Angela Walters

head back to Angela's post and leave a comment

for a chance to have your own copy of

A Modern Twist

random number generator drawing will take place March 15 

for a signed copy of the book A Modern Twist (US) or ebook (International)

 

...with Angela Walters

I think of Angela as a revolutionary quilter

that really changed how we look at finishing a quilt

 

it's important that we all know about quilting our finished tops

turning them in to quilts

and not just leaving them as tops

and it's important to quilt our tops in a manner that enhances the quilt

it's important to think about

color + contrast + composition

in quilting

thank you, Angela, for adding that concept to

A Modern Twist

 

if you can't attend a conference and take one of Angela's classes in person

there are a lot of ways that she makes her ideas available to us

 on a more personal note

I have enjoyed Angela's work - quilting, fabrics, books, lectures

for quite some time now

(how many of you remember this quilt on the cover of Quilters Newsletter Magazine?)

 so it would be an understatement to say that

A Modern Twist

was a joy to create with Angela's contributions to the book

not only the beautiful quilting

but the beautiful spirit 

that is Angela.

mother, wife, quilter, teacher

thank you so very much....

....with Angela

means the world to me!

Rose Hughes.

if you are lucky enough to have taken one of her classes

or seen any of her exhibited work

you will understand what I mean

when I say that I am thankful to be able to call her

f r i e n d 

what a great time it is to go fabric shopping with rose

or to sketch on paper napkins over breakfast

don't get me started about getting anywhere near

beads

or

yarn

yes, I am a very lucky girl.

this post is to introduce you to Rose Hughes' new book

 it was difficult to share only a few projects from the book

you all knew this one below would be one of my favorites

 one of the great things that Rose has done

for this book blog tour

is to design a series of blocks

based upon four letter words that her fans suggested

and then she let each of us select our own word from that list

**addendum:  pattern is available now!

by leaving a comment below

you will be entered in a drawing to win an e-book

from Martingale/TPP

and a pattern for this block

from Rose Hughes!

just leave me a note telling me one

soul-filled

story

something you've experienced

during the December holidays, or the New Year celebration

you know

some random act of kindness

or something that touched

your

soul

and on January 20

the random number generator will select a winner

from the comments
