Featured Quilt - Best Use of Negative Space

Many quilts feature patches of fabric that aren't utilized to their best ability. But there are some quilters who have turned these empty spaces into works of art on their own. Life's Paths XXVI by Barbara Triscari won Best Use of Negative Space - Mid-Century Mod at 2021 Spring Quilt Festival for this very reason. Barbara says of the name, "We plan and try to make our path become what we dream, but circumstances vary the path." "An event that doesn't cause much of an effect on one path may completely veer another. Life is unpredictable."

New Colors In The Store - Quilters Select Bobbin Sets

So Many Colors!

Available in Multicolored, Neutral, and (New in the store!) Black & White.

While they are convenient for machine sewing, they are truly great for hand appliqué (Alex recommends 80 wt. thread for this), and are a good way to ensure that you always have the color you need!

The Quilt Show Puzzle: Accomplished Fabric Work

"Las Cruces" by Gale Carson

Having a traditional patchwork feel that many of her other quilts give off upon first glance, Gale's Las Cruces quilt uses her specialty fabrics to enhance its appliqué trim and allow the mitered corners to stand out.

See more of Gale's quilts in How to Work with One-Of-A-Kind Fabrics Including Thai Silk with Gale Carson.
