The news cycle is so totally bonkers. I am deeply grateful for the quilting community, and the sanctuary of my creative space, to keep my sanity. My B790 machine had a ‘spa day’ while I was in the UK, and my Q20 has been cleaned and oiled as well, so it is time to put the pedal to the metal.

Rosie our 2 year old pup has been wearing a cotton jersey jacket (recovery suit) for almost 2 weeks, instead of the cone of shame. It has been a reminder of the cottage industries out there, many of whom are our customers, who solve day-to-day problems with fabric and a sewing machine.

We have a beautiful new issue of Quilting Arts Magazine<\/a><\/strong>, with the theme of COLOR. One of my favorite topics! I have recently sent in an article for QA magazine about our new group of artists who will have a premier in Houston in October….just around the corner now! That article will come out in the next issue in early November.

In the meantime if you follow us on Facebook<\/a><\/strong>, I have just posted the article about Soul Stories that came out yesterday in the International Quilt Festival e-zine.

sharing your love for fabric,
Luana and Paul
