HiĀ ,
Picking Fabric Colors: If pink and purple are just not your thing, definitely check out this colorful post to
find loads of inspiration for alternative color ideas. I've shared a few new colorways for the quilt as well as photos from members of the Dancing Butterfly Facebook Group as well! I HATE Butterflies - Actually I don't hate butterflies, but
I've heard from many quilters that aren't really into this shape so I've prepared a few alternatives for you to check out.
Many quilters are changing up the design to incorporate an applique shape that better fits their style or needs for this new quilt. I've so far seen elephants, leaves, and spools of thread, but there are many other versions being created and shared in this quilt along!
So if the butterflies have been putting you off,
just remember that you're always welcome to change them up and do your own thing. It's YOUR quilt after all and you'll learn even more if you challenge yourself to think outside the box and make it your own.

Introducing The Quilter's Back Support
|
Josh and I have just added an awesome new quilting tool to the Quilt Shop.The Quilting Back
Support is an adjustable back support brace that comfortably improves your posture while quilting and sewing.
When adjusted properly, a two pound weight rests at your low back, and acts like a gentle counter weight to your body's natural tendency to curl forward.
I've struggled with bad posture for most of my life, but after finding this new tool, I'm seeing and feeling a huge improvement in my back and
neck.
New Class - Fill with Feathers
|
This class focuses on how to use different feather designs in the major spaces of a quilt and how to plan your quilting designs using both marked designs and free hand (unmarked) quilting. This class is designed for quilters who have some experience with free motion quilting, or who have taken a class with me previously in
person.
Yep, I've been bitten by the bug
