SEW EXCITED>>>

I am sew excited for a couple of my customers I had the honor of quilting for not long ago.  I am very happy for them and their quilt wins!

This quilt belongs to a wonderful quilter I met in the wonderful world of quilters on facebook, Kathi Martin. Kathy is a quilt shop owner in Safford, Arizona and her shop is called, The Jack Of Arts Quilt Shop. Don't you just love that name any way if your ever in her area stop in and tell her Tina sent ya  Kathy is a quilting rock star.  The quilt I quilted for her was a round robin, I have to say I've seen some round robins quilts before but nothing as amazing as this one.







When you see Kathy at her shop congratulate her on a her win at the Quilt Arizona Jewels of the Desert 2019 win.  Kathy won third place!


Next: Got to give my friend I've never met but feel like we've known each other forever a shout out!

Edie Elliott another great quilter I've met via facebook!  Like I said above I feel like I've known her forever and can call her my friend.Edie made this beauty and I had to privilege of quilting it for her.  OOOOooooo the doodle fun I got to do.  Took me over a week to complete the quilting and sew very   fun!  Read her story on the photo about this quilt top she made, it was indeed a labor of love!  

By "Reaching for the Stars"  Edie won First Place as Viewers Choice!!!  So happy for her!



Keep reaching for the stars my friend!

Good morning!  I'm enjoying a cup of coffee and sitting by the fire place.  Its a electric one but it gives you warmth and feel of a real one and I love it.  I like to use it as a focal point while I do my morning meditation.  Clearing my mind and thinking about my day and what I hope to accomplish. So I finished the Round Robin quilt I'd been working on yesterday.  It was a custom and they do take me a lil longer then the edge to edge or the stipple ones.  But I love doing them!  Especially ones that allow me to cut loose and try some new idea's.  Allowing me to do my doodle thing on them.  Yesterday I showed you the before photo, this is the finished! I'm very please with how this one turned out.  It took me almost two weeks to complete it, but remember in that two week time period we had two holidays.  So it was two weeks but not really.  I enjoyed some down time over the past two weeks.  But now its time to hit it and get it again!

Today is the first work day for me of the year.  I have a custom quilt on the frame I intend to finish up today.  It's a beautiful quilt I absolutely love.  A round robin quilt. This is one of they best and most outstanding round robins I've seen to date.  The details and care that went into it is beyond amazing and created a stunning quilt.  I have done a couple of round robin quilts in a quilt guild I belong to and they can be a challenge but fun.  A round robin quilt is where a quilter starts the quilt out with a center block, usually ranges in size of 12" up to 18" and is better if it is a square.  After your center block it completed it is then put in a bag that you can not see though, if you want it to be completed in certain fabrics you also place those in that bag along with any wishes of likes or dislikes on a quilt.  Then it has a name of the people on a form on the outside of the bag and it is passed around to each in a group.  Each person it reaches w

Last day of 2018

I hope you all had a amazing and Quilty year! My year was definitely a year of changes and new adventures and above all a very quilty year.  I ventured out and decided to quit my job and take my dream by the horns.  Starting my quilt business!  Scary yes!  But well worth it !   A year filled with many lessons, some learned the hard way some were a Aaaahaaa lesson.  All of which I needed to learn! My year was full of quilting and I've loved every minute of it..... even the boo boo's!  Ok we all make them we are human. I had the opportunity to go on some fabulous quilty adventures... such as going to Paducah for the fall APQ quilt show.  Took hundreds of photos and met a quilting icon, Elenor Burns.  I adore her energy and left feeling inspired.  I enjoyed her trunk show and love her new book.  Oh yeah and did some serious shopping at her store. I enjoyed a few other quilty adventures though out the year, Shipsawana, a few One stop shop hops in Ohio.  I was intro
