Glowing Hearts

Just released, the Glowing Hearts Fabric!!!!!!


In a rush for an idea I pieced 5" squares and then fused "Glorious & Free."  Probably my favourite words from our national anthem .  The picture was taken before the binding was finished so it could go on the road earlier this year with my favourite Trend-Tex sales rep.


The fabric was designed by Grace Noel (Canadian Designer) for Trend-Tex Fabrics.  Moda printed the fabric so you know the quality is great.

Trend-Tex is sponsoring a contest to design and make a quilt from the collection.  There will be prizes and the lucky winner will have their quilt displayed at Quilt Festival in Chicago next May. All this in celebration of Canada's 150th Anniversary in 2017.  Check with your local quilt store for more details.


Number 8 of my Moda Be My Neighbor quilt along is finished.  The fabric is Grand Canal by Kate Spain.

That's it for production this week.  Last weekend was spent in Valemount with a lovely group of local quilters teaching "Kaleido-Design" and "Wonky Houses."  Each time I go to Valemount I feel like I'm coming home.  Pat and Don are the best hosts, and the whole group is so welcoming.  This weekend I'm in Houston for Quilt Market.  Another place that has become very familiar.  More pictures to come of that next week.
