Hi everybody,<br />
<br />
Thanks for stopping by my blog for my date with the Playground Showcase!! My name is Cristi Cooper and I've owned and run a fabric shop called "Whimsy Quilts & Fabrics" for several years, but as I wind that down and close up shop, I'm ECSTATIC to be able to have more time to create! <br />
<br />
I love everything Amy Sinibaldi touches and I had an absolute blast playing with her new collection -- Playground -- for <a href="http://www.artgalleryfabrics.com/" target="_blank">Art Gallery Fabrics</a>. I've touched my fair share of fabric over the years and I've always loved the perfectly soft texture of AGF fabrics! I was ecstatic when these beauties arrived in my mail box!<br />

I have 3 little kids (Ellie - 10, Griffen - 7 and Gavin - 4) and these fabrics made me think about my favorite tiny humans ALOT. My kids love to play on the playground and during the summer, we try to go to a different one almost every day. I really felt inspired to make something that carried the whimsy and nostalgia and the feeling of the collection…. And after much thought and deliberation, I ended up inspired by this image:</div>

I've not appliquéd very much (maybe 2-3 times ever) and also haven't made children's clothing very much so this was a serious effort for me! Now I want to make a patchwork skirt of my very own! </div>

I overthought every detail (anyone else do that?) but now that it's all done, I'm so excited to put it on my kids' playroom wall!! I envision that this sweet girl is swinging barefoot, in her Sunday best, on a warm Fall day with a gentle breeze. Right now, I want to BE her. I hope I never forget what it's like to hear my kids' giggles as they play, when they are all grown up.</div>

Major props to the people who appliqué on a regular basis!! Particularly if you needle-turn appliqué. I thought about doing that and then realized that I think that form of appliqué will have to come after my kiddos have left for college. All of my patience is used on them. ;)</div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;">Dear fabric lovers! </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;"><br /><span style="color: #7d7d7d;">I hope this note finds you all well! I've been hinting at some big changes that are happening here at Whimsy Quilts & Fabrics on Instagram and this is the newsletter where I tell you allll about them. =) I've included both a short and long version because I know not all of you want to hear the nitty gritty details. ;)</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;"><span style="color: #7d7d7d;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;"> Short version: </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;"> We opened a fabric shop in 2012. It got too big (think 2-3 of your LQSs combined) and now it needs to get much smaller. To that end, we will have inventory reduction sales all month long, starting with 25% off all non-quilting cotton substrates (aka canvas, rayon, brushed cotton, lawn, voile, knits, double gauze & eyelet.) Use code "SAVE25" to save 25% off anything in this </span><a href="http://www.whimsyquiltsandfabrics.com/shop/fabrics/non-quilting-cotton-substrates" style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia;">catalog</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;">. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;">Long version (aka the really honest, behind the scenes story aka the ones the more "professional" people don't tell. I'm really transparent and want the people who support our shop to really know who they are supporting -- a real human family with a business owner wife/mommy who fails and learns and trys again.): </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;"> To tell you about the future, I (Cristi) think I need to give a little bit of history first. We started selling fabric in April of 2012 as a way to supplement our income as I left my job as a scientist. I loved it because I love fabric (!!!) and I could do it from home while my kiddos slept, freeing me up to be a SAHM. Our first purchase was just one collection of fabric. As that collection sold, it freed up funds to buy more fabric and over the past 3 years, our shop has grown in exactly that way. I am eager to please and as our business grew, I would get in any collection that a customer asked for and I loved it! I loved being able to be all about the customer. (Of course, that was within certain parameters -- I've never gotten in something that I hated. ;) )</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;">Then at a certain point about 1.5 years in it got way WAY too big... and I was honestly too busy working to ever really see it. For several months in a row, we were getting deliveries every day and over 5000+ yards of fabric a month. That's over 350 bolts of fabric a month. BOLTS. (Just let that image sink in for a second.) After about 6 months of that, we took a step back and asked ourselves "what do WE want this business to look like?" We had been working all day (16 hours a day) for 7 days in a row for a while. My hubby would work the shop when he got home from his job all day. My good friend Desiree helped out 1-2 days a week back then and that's when I would grocery shop and clean. And I would mother my 3 AMAZING children right in the middle of it all. We were exhausted! I mean like literally e.x.h.a.u.s.t.e.d. And fabric was in every room of our house (even our master bedroom). We asked for advice from our local bank's small business advisor (word to the wise: your bank probably has one and they are SO smart! They will help you for free if you have a business account!!) He told us the shop was driving us (and not vice versa) and we needed to stop buying so much fabric. (I suppose that should've been obvious!!) Anyways, we cut our buying in half. And then in half again. Now that's where we have been at most months since (unless Cotton + Steel releases, ha!). (I mean can we all just stop for a second and say these ladies are fabric geniuses??) However, I'm finding that we are still ordering too much and overall running too large of an operation such that I'm not accomplishing my goals. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;">This is the place in the story where I sat here and asked myself, what exactly are my goals? This is what I've come up with: </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;">1. I can't carry so much fabric that it creeps into our living space. Ever. This means that </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;">I need to sell about 1/3-1/2 of what we have (because it takes up too much space in our house). This bodes very well for you, my favorite fabric lovers!!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;">2. I can't financially hurt my family because I order too much fabric. This </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;">means I can't order anywhere in the vicinity of what I have ordered.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;">3. I can't work in the fabric shop so many hours that I can't be a good wife and mother. This </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;">means that I need to have designated hours where I respond to DMs, PMs, emails, & texts and that I put my phone in my purse more often. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;">4. I need to do this job in a way that serves YOU (the customer) well. This </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;">means that I respond to all of your questions/messages during that time frame so that you never wait a full 24 hours before hearing from me. And it </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;">means that we ship as fast as humanly possible. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;">5. I need to do this job in a way that makes me happy (& not stressed). What this means to me is that</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #7d7d7d; font-family: Georgia;"> I need to do this business smaller, but with more finesse. More customization. More ready-to-ship custom bundles, quilt kits & patterns (like the ones shown below). I'd love to be able to say "yes I have time to design a custom quilt kit!" every single time you ask. And then lastly, but maybe the most exciting, I want to design fabric. This is a dream that Desiree and I both share and we have started down the path towards designing fabric and hope to show our portfolio by Spring Market. </span></div>

This is awesome, so thanks!! But, I want to get your name added to the drawing the correct number of times, so I'm wondering if any of you referred those ladies (#1) and if they'd like to be added to the drawing (#2)... But, because the banner is for Halloween, I'm only going to wait to see if I hear from any of you or them by TONIGHT, Wed. midnight and if not, do the drawing right away in the morning. Then the banner & gift card will be overnighted. So sorry for the confusion!! Also, check back in late Nov./early Dec. for another giveaway!! xo, Cristi</span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'Lucida Grande', fantasy;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="white-space: pre-wrap; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium; "><br /></span></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'Lucida Grande', -webkit-fantasy;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="white-space: pre-wrap; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium; ">Here's some additional pics of the banner.

I personally love bobbing for apples (mostly knowing that in the end I get to dip it in caramel, mmmm, yummy!), going to Halloween parties where they stick out bowls of spaghetti and olives and you have to feel behind a curtain, all the while being told it's brains and eye balls!! (oooh, spooky). And finally, that my sweet kiddos are going to be a sweet little fairy and a very scary (21 month old) monster. </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Good luck!! </span></div>Cristihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07112821509024837175noreply@blogger.com17tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9114832747221383635.post-59949416459932683072010-10-13T20:45:00.000-07:002010-10-13T20:52:00.010-07:00Sweet Abby<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">I promise this is the last post showcasing a quilt for the next little bit because next will be a GIVEAWAY!

Not because I don't love her so, but because she required </span><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">just</span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"> the right fabrics to make her work. She definitely has more of a modern feel... modern, yet pretty. Kind of how I envision someone named "Olivia". Olivias usually have good hair though (at least all the ones I know). To her benefit, however, this Olivia comes without.

The window in my living room has taken up WAY too much brain space in the past year. I've made curtains for it... I've bought curtains for it... (Let me tell you how much my husband has LOVED this venture. ... Not.) Now I have white wooden blinds in it, which aren't incredibly offensive... so that's nice at least. BUT, I'm dreaming of curtains that change the room. Something unique, something you'd find in Anthro, if they made curtains like they make clothes. So be honest and give me your thoughts... This top fabric swatch is from <a href="http://annamariahorner.blogspot.com/">Anna Maria Horner</a>'s new line and I LOVE it! </span></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTZla0IJiN9Q5Ag6_kfVT5rqcH-KyP2I-DsM7TbftwzLPVkt9p-KPeKwwpKTmQqAY2dG2nvGpf5DHY5Kfpsyvm5hUgVVlsAeT-cZPGS2gZYDEUjYvO2A2TZjCFqEsR2NupPXVmodoBpQH7/s1600/yhst-10775676472182_2126_142245085.jpeg"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTZla0IJiN9Q5Ag6_kfVT5rqcH-KyP2I-DsM7TbftwzLPVkt9p-KPeKwwpKTmQqAY2dG2nvGpf5DHY5Kfpsyvm5hUgVVlsAeT-cZPGS2gZYDEUjYvO2A2TZjCFqEsR2NupPXVmodoBpQH7/s400/yhst-10775676472182_2126_142245085.jpeg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5522560782117290450" /></span></a><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTZla0IJiN9Q5Ag6_kfVT5rqcH-KyP2I-DsM7TbftwzLPVkt9p-KPeKwwpKTmQqAY2dG2nvGpf5DHY5Kfpsyvm5hUgVVlsAeT-cZPGS2gZYDEUjYvO2A2TZjCFqEsR2NupPXVmodoBpQH7/s1600/yhst-10775676472182_2126_142245085.jpeg"></a>And these lovely curtains are from <a href="http://www.potterybarn.com">Pottery Barn</a>.<br /></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrBNntUi1lnO4Pwn5UIQsfZppndbXQgaCP_9duuCQ7si5Bn-gRx6wi7NCGzdyMzvzHTFxTdzkoYrIwEop1GqygNdhLY5zqGJ8XXkKi3xKNSbqA1IROmeESPKJ-jeQUXTnv5HqudPF_SU1x/s1600/img96m.jpg"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 383px; height: 344px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrBNntUi1lnO4Pwn5UIQsfZppndbXQgaCP_9duuCQ7si5Bn-gRx6wi7NCGzdyMzvzHTFxTdzkoYrIwEop1GqygNdhLY5zqGJ8XXkKi3xKNSbqA1IROmeESPKJ-jeQUXTnv5HqudPF_SU1x/s400/img96m.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5522560773684780578" /></span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">The ladies at <a href="http://fabriccrush.com">Fabric Crush</a> in Wallingford, here in Seattle, inspired me with this apron... kind of Anthro, don't you think?

I'd love to make the PB curtains, but have the AMH fabric mixed in somehow. If the bottom of the curtains was more balloon-curtain-like, then the AMH fabric could be in the bottom... but I don't want it to disappear.

I feel that having nice soap in my home just makes everything nicer, takes life up one notch... know what I mean? What's nicer is if you know the lady making your soap and think she's just awesome. =) I met Glenda, owner of </span><a href="http://sudznthings.etsy.com/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">SudzNThings</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">, at the Great Falls Farmer's Market in August. She was SO welcoming and made my whole experience totally awesome. This is the type of person who helps her nearly blind and deaf elderly neighbor (whom she only recently met) every single day, what sounds like on and off all day long! The world could definitely benefit if there were more Glenda's around. =) </span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">So if you're in the market for nice soap, want to send a sweet gift to a friend for her birthday, bless your elderly neighbor with something that smells nice OR just make your own home a nice place to wash your hands, stop by her </span><a href="http://sudznthings.etsy.com/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">shop</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">. OH -- and I made this banner for her shop. (Not for free, I wish I was that nice, but in exchange for soap -- and I definitely WON! in that trade.)</span></div><div><br /><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></div>Cristihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07112821509024837175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9114832747221383635.post-62119377532051893842010-09-15T22:30:00.001-07:002010-09-15T22:38:52.427-07:00Banner Crazy!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitG5vtGRzNuzDwVR0Yd4CVUqzdRYQLKUcCuLcz5wmZAsovOb7xS5JzF-TnsOeChLQbdDuh6jpYg7PAWTMT6hgk-Aly2HSBgpegpULHtGhyphenhyphenYBzH4-xwhf862G4T_W0eGR7_p-L3wAcz66kI/s1600/orange2.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitG5vtGRzNuzDwVR0Yd4CVUqzdRYQLKUcCuLcz5wmZAsovOb7xS5JzF-TnsOeChLQbdDuh6jpYg7PAWTMT6hgk-Aly2HSBgpegpULHtGhyphenhyphenYBzH4-xwhf862G4T_W0eGR7_p-L3wAcz66kI/s400/orange2.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5517380239269201922" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiy8oDUXoZPReR2HI-IU795Ayuhcqj3JLUWtq8iRkFkJwoO_sSdVc26d0vQ-FlTmG0B-PWhPPeVZWyHXXcr6tkNOKsYiNdqv1dZMH6nmM90xCAMKad4wIFRT_-3_Yv2Tjholg2o4arJcuUn/s1600/red3.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiy8oDUXoZPReR2HI-IU795Ayuhcqj3JLUWtq8iRkFkJwoO_sSdVc26d0vQ-FlTmG0B-PWhPPeVZWyHXXcr6tkNOKsYiNdqv1dZMH6nmM90xCAMKad4wIFRT_-3_Yv2Tjholg2o4arJcuUn/s400/red3.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5517380232424580162" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgB8-U96d2jDcHKEMwr9TWrIs3f4y0NHJfcZ_jSQ57vJZpmQRo8vBmCzTVQxCYQK8KgeJUyC1Wh3rFEqlDwwM0NHsx4OPYYnvPuoLYB_cwUq3eJgCRM9YiUzoqIQ8fY2fLZ1lcheTyHfMOe/s1600/boy3.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgB8-U96d2jDcHKEMwr9TWrIs3f4y0NHJfcZ_jSQ57vJZpmQRo8vBmCzTVQxCYQK8KgeJUyC1Wh3rFEqlDwwM0NHsx4OPYYnvPuoLYB_cwUq3eJgCRM9YiUzoqIQ8fY2fLZ1lcheTyHfMOe/s400/boy3.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5517380227585216290" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglEW3iSNSeHmoKbA2Djr0s1IccF8d48I7IE4U-bLItT8j6FPFzyBWJV5_SjFuJ69KOZIavx5y0mVHiQVQSWmrFwdawF_Z9CSWAHRTbV613oWr0jnOFkKq5xQ5gjd298mFYrOV8JuxIF0sF/s1600/pink3.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglEW3iSNSeHmoKbA2Djr0s1IccF8d48I7IE4U-bLItT8j6FPFzyBWJV5_SjFuJ69KOZIavx5y0mVHiQVQSWmrFwdawF_Z9CSWAHRTbV613oWr0jnOFkKq5xQ5gjd298mFYrOV8JuxIF0sF/s400/pink3.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5517380213968491394" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0jeE6f2oKhY9CQmOcPFoFOn3guUXBuGlkaAtHS4f9-2a_eOdON0dPxgcgljImOxBQwFuZtVIAnAK5Pw6SFWKqBdkFu7-t9FWEn30FrwZQf865TZ31r4_siFjsPpANu0OrCXx6qlDDbEod/s1600/aqua2.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0jeE6f2oKhY9CQmOcPFoFOn3guUXBuGlkaAtHS4f9-2a_eOdON0dPxgcgljImOxBQwFuZtVIAnAK5Pw6SFWKqBdkFu7-t9FWEn30FrwZQf865TZ31r4_siFjsPpANu0OrCXx6qlDDbEod/s400/aqua2.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5517380198082685058" /></a><br /><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">These are SO much fun to make!!

Good question. I think I've been quilting in my head for probably about 10 years. That's when I asked my mom for a sewing machine for Christmas. My grand master plan was to make duvet covers that resembled quilts (ie had the patchwork thing going on... (which I still plan to do...) and for those of you that know me well, you probably know making a beautiful bed has always been high on my list of priorities... (B'c that's obviously, so... um, important? Yeah. Right.) But seriously, I've daydreamed about sheets, beautiful fabric and the like for years! Some college age girls bought new clothes. I bought new sheets. Now, I guess the truth is that I rarely actually MADE my bed, but man, when I did (ahem. DO.), it's really quite nice. (Except right now, while I have this momentary crisis of decorum, while I switch styles from very modern to more of the vintage/shabby chic look... maybe a post for another day.) </div><div><br /></div><div>But when did I actually start quilting and loving it so much so that now I'm attempting to sell them? And isn't quilting for old folks? (or at least the less hip? cool? ..... let's see ... where am I going with this? b'c I'm certainly not hip or cool, I'm just a dorky scientist....) Let's just start here: I decided one day that I really NEEDED to make a quilt for my daughter's bed. Like in the way that a mom yearns to nurse her baby... (some of you may get that??) ... I wanted to make, by hand, something my 3 year old would LOVE and that would make her feel loved as she cozied into her bed. And so it began. And now I'm so addicted to looking at and buying fabric, it's ridiculous. I have to really work on self-control to NOT look at fabric in an evening and to not. buy. anymore. for a little while. I also think that putting together pretty fabrics into a beautiful quilt is a bit like designing a home or painting or even maybe baking. It satisfies my creative side, in a way that science just isn't capable. So, when the kids are down and I've got Lost or Dancing with the Stars on, putting combos of fabric together and deciding on a quilt top is really one of my favorite things to do these days! And so, there you have it. So I'll be quilting if you need me. Oh and b'c online tutorials have been KEY to my learning process, I'll be posting tutorials on as many sewing & quilting related topics as I can come up with. If you have something you'd like to see or any questions, post a comment and I'll try to answer it!! </div><div><br /></div><div>OH, another HUGELY important thing for me to mention is that I'm not doing this alone... My good friend Desiree is not only the designer and quilter of 2 of the quilts already posted, she is also the photographer of any photo that looks fantastic. The one above was taken by ME and not meant to reflect on her photographing skills, b'c I tell you what, this lady is one heckuva photographer!! And quilter. </div>Cristihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07112821509024837175noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9114832747221383635.post-63133207158319921792010-05-13T11:10:00.000-07:002010-05-13T11:12:35.525-07:00Meet Claire<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhovVMH2Bv2TojdrCoBcs7ppIAKHLXPEMyVluXHjMtEkh_qXP_82Sli4RLtq5RVwHv3QY7wyeeBRbYo6d117VfLm5D4-1OWblJvBqU06trRG5LUmWTEY0Zz7QbG8EK-EYT8sMoGHzDtkk/s1600/web.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhovVMH2Bv2TojdrCoBcs7ppIAKHLXPEMyVluXHjMtEkh_qXP_82Sli4RLtq5RVwHv3QY7wyeeBRbYo6d117VfLm5D4-1OWblJvBqU06trRG5LUmWTEY0Zz7QbG8EK-EYT8sMoGHzDtkk/s800/web.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470818885919260882" border="0" /></a><br />This beautiful, handmade patchwork baby quilt is pieced with 8 different designer fabrics that are in blue, yellow and green floral patterns and coordinating polka dots.
