Virtual Stitch-In with The Stitch TV Show!
I had SO much fun joining Lynn and Pam on Friday for their once-a-month Virtual Stitch-In! These ladies are full of talent, kindness, good humor, and integrity. I'm happy to count them among my friends. Doesn't hurt that they make super fun quilt patterns, either. Grab yourself some hand sewing and a cat (or 3), and have a sit down to watch and get to know us.... They share great tips and tricks in their regular quilting talk show, and it's always chill at The Stitch. On the Calendar! September 3rd > I'm speaking with the Allatoona Quilters' Guild! They meet at the Roberts School in Acworth, GA at 10:00 am. September 6th > I'll be hanging out...Read More
Folding Fabric onto Comic Book Boards
Hiya! Last weekend I shared on Instagram that I was reorganizing my sewing room/studio and folding my fabric onto comic book boards. Several of you asked to see a video, so here it is! I hope you find it helpful. (p.s. that delicious fabric is St. John by Jennifer Paganelli for FreeSpirit Fabrics) xoxo, ~Tara
The Evie – A Scrappy Vintage Beauty
I ADORE vintage quilts. This quilt made by Eveler Blankenship begged me to make her again. It's a controlled riot of scraps and strings and bits. Here's my version just before I finished putting her together (please excuse the night time studio lighting): We had a fabulous time making The Evie in my June 22nd class at the Sewing Doc! My friend Pam Cobb of The Stitch TV Show joined us and made these lovelies! (Check out The Stitch on YouTube!!) We're doing it again on August 18th. Sign up to come sew The Evie with me! Hope to see you soon! xoxo ~Tara
