Back to sewing & classes

I  hope everyone is enjoying this time with Friends & Family 

It is that time to get back on the sewing machine and get busy sewing. I hope to finish up all the gifts. I am going to pick up New sewing machine to show to my students. Classes in Feb 8 + 15 March 8 + 15 for $28 ea month. So pass on to your friends that need that new sewing machine or want help with their new machine. I will have the Bernette 46 at my classes so everyone can try it out.  Talk to you soon,   Tish

Wall Quilt Kit

I received a wall quilt pattern for someone needing a sample of the pattern. It is a heart Wall hanging with machine applique. Looks fun
I think I am going to put some Texture Magic in it for interest. I will post pics as I work on it. I seriously need to get a New iPod or iPhone so I can post pics faster. So for now I will do it with my phone.

Sorry I was gone so long

I have had a very busy life and a bit stressful with grankids & family, a few emergencies. I have this blog to help my students, friends, and TextureMagic & Thread clients. So I am trying to get my sewing room in order along with my life. I was given the MOST wonderful gift of a Treadle sewing machine. A Singer I will be posting pics soon I hope, it a bit fancy. The same wonderful woman, my DaughInLaw's grandmother Betty Craze. I hope I can be like her and she is a beautiful woman, and SO giving to everyone. You can see her on FB. She also gave me some old quilts. I am going to find out there story.

To students feel free to comment and email me questions. I will be trying to set a regular time to meet. Everyone in Vancouver, WA is invited to come sew.

Expo

Had a good time at the Portland Quilt Expo. I volunteered 2 days so I got in for Free and took 2 classes. The Notions class, always good, and I got to take Brazilian Embroidery. I love hand embroidery and Brazilian looks even cooler. I white gloved a couple of times so I got a chance to talk to people. I found out that Superior Threads didn't have there sample book so I directed 2 people to a couple of quilts that had Texture Magic in them. So now I was thinking that I needed to do a Texture Magic class at Expo next year.


Now off to Retreat.
