We have so many great events coming up at The Studio. Click here for descriptions of each event and to register We have something for everyone. Much awaited Kid’s painting and sewing classes are here! Don’t miss out. Register now.

A few weeks ago I introduced a new series of quilts that I had designed, all based on NOT including any half-square triangles. My good friend, Wilma, hates making half-square triangles so I designed this group of quilts with her in mind and decided to call it The Wilma Series. (See and read about that here.) I just finished one of the designs this afternoon. I love the colors and the modern feel to this quilt. It was put together using the Quilt As You Go method. It went really fast!

Here’s a little sample skirt we just worked up for the upcoming Kid’s Sewing Class on Saturday, September 23rd for ages 10+. Click here to get more info and to register.

We had a great time with a family paint party yesterday. They are here for a family reunion and while some played a golf tournament these creative ones came to paint. Nice work!!! Remember that you can book a private party at The Studio by contacting Kelly at kwalker@kellywalkerstudios.com .

Our Thursday Night Quilters completed their Sampler Quilts last night. Samantha, Shannon and Jillian are shown here with their amazing works. We missed Becky and Paula last night but look forward to seeing their finished quilts too. This was such a fun group of ladies…always eager to learn more and always ready to laugh. We had a great year quilting together! If you would like to learn more about quilting and sewing watch for our upcoming classes. We have a new garment series beginning soon.

I completed this “Fancy Diamond” quilt top last month and was pleased with how it turned out. I took it to my longarm quilter, Wendy Hughes. When I got it back I was thrilled. Just look at the beautiful stitching she did on the blocks and neutral space. Wendy made a quilt that I was pleased with into a quilt that I am so delighted to have! Don’t you agree that it’s amazing????!!!!! Thanks Wendy…beautiful work!

We had a great time yesterday painting the Rooster & Hen. Everyone did a FABULOUS job!!! Come join us soon to paint something just like these painters did. Check out the upcoming events here.

At yesterday’s Row Quilt class while some of our quilters finished up their blocks, Janet started assembling her quilt rows. Isn’t it gorgeous???!!!! I just love how it is turning out. And Janet is doing a beautiful job on it. Can you believe she has just started quilting recently while attending The Studio’s Quilt as You Go classes? I can’t wait to see it when she gets the other half on it along with the border and binding. The color and fabric choices are so nice. It’s going to be fabulous!!!! Great work Janet.

Last night I worked on the designs of a new quilt series. The thing that makes it special is that it has no half square triangles in it. My friend Wilma is NOT a fan of half square triangles so I am calling this collection Wilma…..just for her! LOL! Patterns will be available soon as well as a class to teach an “On Point” quilt using the Quilt as You Go method.

I’m still working on designs for our monthly Banner series. Here is one that might be our December banner. More to come.
