Stella Bella Appliqué: June 2013
http://stellabellaapplique.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 30, 2013. I got a real surprise on Wednesday night! My quilt, "Love's Horizon," won two ribbons at the National Quilting Association's show in Columbus, Ohio: a first place in the duet category (it was beautifully quilted by Anita Shackelford) and a special recognition award, "Traditional: Remarkable Achievement in Classic Patterning." I wasn't there, but Anita Shackelford sent this photo of the quilt at preview night. It was very exciting! Links to this post. Wednesday, June 26, 2013. It to...

Saturday, March 1, 2014. Home, sweet home! I have just returned from a wonderful week at The Elly Sienkiewicz Appliqué Academy. Which was held at the lovely Kingsmill Resort in Williamsburg, Virginia. Without a doubt, I had the most wonderful students ever in a full and then some class. These women were attentive, focused, funny, and kind. We had a blast! Here they are with their blocks in progress. That was a bunch of stuff to absorb! Now, they're ready to complete their blocks at home. I'm in love with...

http://stellabellaapplique.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 22, 2013. Fun at Appliqué Academy! Elly Sienkiewicz and I are standing in front of my quilt, "Love's Horizon,". A valentine for my niece, Emerson. It was expertly quilted by Anita Shackelford. I spent this past week in my version of quilter’s heaven at The Elly Sienkiewicz Appliqué Academy. This was my second year as a faculty member and it was a blast! My students were all devoted needle artists focused on learning new skills and working on their beautiful blocks. And we had lots of fun.

Saturday, March 23, 2013. More Little Red Baskets. Here are the rest of the little red baskets for the small quilt I’m making. The fabrics are all Daiwabo taupes. I think they're looking really cute and they are super fast! Using the prepared edge technique for appliqué, it only takes a couple of hours to do one of the more complicated baskets. The easy ones are even faster! Taupey color called "twig" from Mary Jo Hiney Designs. The feather stitch on the basket is done in silk floss from Gloriana Threads.
