As we just announced we will begin our “Banner Year” soon featuring a quilted banner for each month of the year. This one with our patchwork acorn and pinwheels will be November’s banner. The hardest part of designing this year long class is narrowing down the ideas. But that will be good news for those who participate because they will get several patterns each month. WooHoo! We love bonus patterns, don’t you???!!!! The schedule for the first quarte should be ready today or tomorrow so be sure to watch for it on The Studio Facebook page. If you haven’t “liked” our page be sure to do that now.

I’ve been working on a series of quilted banners that will feature a different image to represent every month of the year. They can be used as banners…or with a few additions they can be made into a tablerunner. And you could even combine them all to make a great quilt. There will be an announcement soon for the first class in this series. And the first 6 to register will receive one of these really nice banner holders. Watch for the date of the upcoming class. And over the next few days we will feature on the blog the banners for the first few months in the series.

In my business we have to think ahead when we are doing classes that feature a holiday. So I just completed this Christmas quilt as a possible idea for a class…either as a quilt or maybe a table runner. I do love the mix of so many different Christmas fabrics. You know how I love a scrappy quilt! (NOTE: Pattern is Trees & Tops by Moda Fabrics.)

I just had to share this really neat mixed media art piece that Denise K gave me for my birthday. The little dog made out of rocks and the flowers from pottery pieces with the little line sketch is just amazing. It was such a wonderful surprise. I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!! Nice work Denise. You create the most beautiful artwork. Thanks for sharing it with me! If you don’t know Denise’s work check out her website, The Mud Peddler, here.
