Travel got in the way of posting Sunday for the Around the Block – US Tour – week 17 – North Dakota. So, following along with the tour we go to North Dakota. You can find it HERE. Have fun with the block by KISSed Quilts.

Tips this week will be short and sweet…

This being Thanksgiving week, I look back over the year and it has been disappointing because of all the quilt shows and events that have been cancelled. I can be thankful that the technology that allows us virtual classes and shows. It is not the same as in person, but better than nothing. I did mention my website is getting a redo, that will be longer than planned but it is being worked on! The Zoom classes will be up as soon as I can. I have tried to see the good in all this and hope you have enjoyed my Winter Tree-Land on AQS blog. I have seen a few finished trees on the Christmas Countdown Facebook page and appreciate the support of the project!

What are you thankful for? In looking at this through my quilting eyes. I am thankful for the ability to have turned my passion for sewing into my quilt business. I like to learn new techniques and share my knowledge and teach quilting.

#1 – Use good fabric and good designs that you love. It makes for a more rewarding finish.

#2 – Find tools that work for you! The basics tools and techniques you trust, will give confidence.

THANKS for your continued support of my small quilting business. If you use the word THANKS, I am giving you a 20% discount on my website. (The Shabby Chic Tree kit is not eligible for any discount.) Due to the Thanksgiving holiday, any orders received through Sunday will be shipped by Dec. 1st.

in quilting,
