Aloft, a SAQA Exhibit

March 19, 2020

Once upon a time, a long time ago, before Covid 19 really hit the US, the SAQA show Aloft premiered at AQS Daytona Beach (late Feb). I was able to see its debut. I didn’t have a lot of time to ponder the quilts as I was sneaking in time at lunch and after teaching. […]

The Santa Barbara Quilt Retreat and Betty Busby

March 5, 2020

I had a grand time at the Santa Barbara Quilting Retreat a few weeks ago when I studied with Betty Busby. Betty is a very popular teacher and I knew her a little bit from SAQA, so I was pretty sure I was going to enjoy the class. It exceeded my expectations for several reasons. […]

Reviews: Generic ruler foot and Acorn Easy Press Fabric Treatment

January 9, 2020

  I’m working now on a large trapunto, almost-wholecloth quilt with some random piecing inserts and I’ll be using ruler work for the trapuntoed circles. Here’s a test piece, a trial run on which I’ve tested the circles and played with various fills: I also took a great ruler work class at the Folsom Meissner […]
