Have you heard? The Studio is offering one kid’s class per month until the end of the year. Tomorrow our theme is Landscape and they will be painting a large canvas with a beautiful scene. I can’t wait to see the results. We are SOLD OUT! Don’t let your young artist miss the next one. Check out the schedule and themes here and register them now so they can’t paint with us at the October session.

We learned to make the “Tree Farm” quilt block on Thursday afternoon. Can’t wait to see what these ladies come up with based on this block. It is based on the quilt I made last year.

Stitch & Bitch V was the best retreat we have ever had. I don’t know if it was the combination of people, the projects we were working on, the food and games, or just what led to it but this was by far the most fun we have had at a retreat. And we CAN NOT WAIT to do it again. We will on Feb 2-6, 2023. I think most everyone will return but just in case they can’t be sure to let me know if you want to be added to the wait list. We always give the people who were at the last retreat the first right of refusal for the next but if they can’t attend we open it to the wait list. And trust me, you don’t want to miss this!!!!!

The “Color Wheel Star” Quilt is completed. This is a Quilt as You Go project and we will be offering this project as a workshop soon. Watch for the date. The best part is this can be done in just a couple of days….and you can make the star in a variety of ways. Here is another version that we are working on that is made with Christmas fabrics.
