I am still working on the hand quilting of the Mod Mood quilt and am about 90% complete. I am beginning to lose my focus somewhat on this quilt. Don't get me wrong, I am totally lovin it, but there are so many other projects floating around in my mind right now.
I think it started when I ran some errands last Saturday. I dropped books off at the library and I stopped to check out one of the books on the "New Books" shelf - "Fresh Quilting" by Malka Dubrawsky. I later stopped by my LQS and they had just received "a stitch in color" by Malka Dubrawsky for Moda. So I picked up a couple charm packs (since they did not have a fat quarter bundle). I really do love the bright colors and simple lines of this fabric line.
I started playing around with quilt ideas and did a web search and found that Malka would be speaking at the Tri-county Quilt Guild on Tuesday. Yesterday, I took off work a bit early, picked up my mom, and we went to the guild's meeting.
The presentation was about the fabric dying process using stamps and wax resist. It was quite interesting and my mom and I both enjoyed it. I think I will be going back to the LQS this weekend to buy my mom some of this fabric for her projects.
JUST for your mother? or maybe "a bit" may stick to the sides of your bag? be honest now!! xx lol

ReplyDeleteYour quilt is amazing.....like a pianist gone mad at a crayon factory. I love it and keep trying to imagine what the music would sound like.
ReplyDelete"A Stitch in Color" is oh so fun to work with. I'm getting ready to quilt my own creation with it.
Love. Love. Love your mod mood quilt! Your hand stitching adds a nice touch. What a treat to hear Malka in person! What are you going to make with the charms?
