National Quilt Museum curator gets her wish with new exhibit

Ever since Judy Schwender joined the National Quilt Museum as its curator, she has wanted to group the critter quilts together.

Check out Leah Day’s podcast! I’m on it this week …

I will do interviews with local media any day of the week. Our brick and mortar shop is kind of the weak link when it comes to net revenue in the Quilt Addicts Anonymous brand. It makes money, but barely, and I know every time I chat with a local reporter, that number goes up […]

Gain confidence with ‘The Quilter’s Palette’

When I teach quilting classes the biggest problem my students encounter is figuring out which fabrics will look best with their pattern. The difficulties range from picking a palette of busy prints with no neutral fabric, having trouble putting prints together when they don’t come in a neatly packaged fabric line, to just not being confident […]

Mrs. Lincoln’s Dressmaker provides historical insight

I finally finished “Mrs. Lincoln’s Dressmaker” by Jennifer Chiaverini over the weekend. It took me a year to get through it, partly because I was sent the book for review right before my life got very busy, and partly because it just didn’t have the same I just can’t put it down qualities as some […]

Review: ‘Let’s Get Creative with Quilt Labels’ offers inspiration, tutorials

Let’s face it. We love our quilts and hope those we give them to or inherit them after we’re gone, will cherish the quilts and always remember the occasion for which they were made.

Virtual shop hop: Quiltology in Chicago

Update: Sadly this quilt shop has closed, although to can still shop its online selection.  I went to Chicago last week on business and just couldn’t leave the city without checking out Quiltology, the urban quilt space.

I am absolutely in love with Color Play by Patti Carey for Northcott Fabrics. The bright, super saturated rainbow is absolutely perfect for anyone who appreciates color and would work well for kids quilts as well. The collection features several panels and running yardage where the rainbow ombre extends across the width of fabric. If you […]
