Featured Quilt - Glamorous Geometric Gyrations
Cum et Irisby Sandra Ruano Navarro was featured at the Houston International Quilt Festival in 2017 and
features so many swirling designs you won't know where to look first. Sandra says, "The design is original and uses a combination of geometric forms and optical effects to simulate the swirling motion of a twister. The quilt represents the sight of a twister, with the rainbow color flashes, as seen through a window."
Return to sets past of The Quilt Show with Alex and Ricky as they meet up with our next group of Handwork Masters from our second Handwork Masterclass, which is all about all varieties of stitches, featuring Rosie de Leon McCrady, Anna Bates, Sandra Leichner, Amy McClellan, and Meg Hawkey.

WeAllSew Tutorial: Serging 101 - Understanding Your Serger
Do You Know How to Use Your Serger?
We get it, the Serger can be a little bit scary if you've never used one before. But fear not, because Silvia Sutters over at WeAllSew has
the inside track to the basic knowledge you need to turn your serger from enemy to ally in no time flat. Plus, we couldn't get through Serger Month without at least addressing the basics at some point (get it?).
The big
day is tomorrow! Join Joe Cunningham, Alex Anderson, Sheila Frampton Cooper, Katie Pasquini Masopust, and more as they present a lightning round of quilt demos to support
United Help Ukraine. It will be a fun day like no other, with lots of great tricks, tips, and techniques. You don't want to miss this. Most of these 10-15 minute segments will be recorded and available if you can't make the class.
It all starts TOMORROW, Saturday, April 23, 2022, and runs from 9 AM to 12 PM PST.
The Quilt Show Puzzle: There's A "Tail" To Tell Here
"Folk-Tails" by Sue Spargo
Sue Spargo celebrated childhood memories of Africa using her signature hand embroidery with her quilt, Folk-Tails. It must have been a wonderful childhood as the quilt is filled with interesting animals and beautiful flowers, embellished and embroidered in Sue's enchanting way.
