Dream Weaver and Extra Fabric

Hello Fellow Quilters!

I recently bought Tula Pinks book Quilts from the House of Tula Pink from her website.  When I got the book I also got all the fabric to make the Dream Weaver quilt that is in the book.  This has to be the biggest quilt I have ever made.  Damn  thing is huge...well huge to me...

It is a nice sunny day here in Texas and I was able to get some good outside shots of it by the pool.

Finished Size: 80" x 96"
Fabric:  Prince Charming
Quilting and Piecing by ME!

Quiltcon: Day One

DAMN!  Quiltcon is the shit!  It is so fucking awesome!  Sorry make the folks who aren't here feel bad but it is jammin'.  My first day was spent taking a class but the AWESOME Angela Walters.  I learned a lot!  We were quilting on white fabric and that made me a little self-conscious about my quilting but, hey, I have only been quilting for a little over a year, so I need to recognize!

Here are a few pictures from the class:

Kimono Wallhanging

Second project of the year.  I feel alright about this.  I think the Mrs. had the right idea and I should have broken up the blocks with some solid color.  The tabs are too long too but that was my first time making tabs so it is a learning process.  Overall it isn't too bad.

First Quilt of the Year

Nothing like starting off the new year right!  First quilt finished on New Years Day.  The design I did in EQ 7.  Just have square triangles put together to make a zig zag pattern.  The Fabric is designed by Sheri McCulley Studios and called Woodland Tails.  It is put out by Riley Blake Designs.

Another year down....

I have not written on this blog in a while.  I have been busy sewing and writing weekly reviews of this season's Ink Master for the Tattoo Artist Magazine Blog. If you do not mind reading a foul mouthed Italian expounding on the world of reality television, then feel free to check it out.

I did manage to get 3 Holiday Quilts completed.

The Doctor...

The Mrs. and I made a Dr. Who quilt some friends of ours up in live deep in the frostbitten Pennsylvania Woods...well not really in the woods...more like Harrisburg.  The Mrs. did the piecing and I did the quilting.
