Snow Dye Giveaway!

-
Are you tired of winter?
Ready for spring?
Or maybe you live on the other side of the world from me and you are wishing for some cool weather? Either way it's time to cheer up and have a giveaway!
I'm joining The Quilting Gallery's Blog Hop Party. . .
Blog Hop Party with Give-Aways
. . .and giving away this generously sized fat quarter piece of snow-dyed fabric!
 Here's a little close up of it's lusciousness.
I love the funky designs that come about in snow dyes.
Would it make your day to win this fabric?
If so, then lets take a minute to stretch our right brains a little and take a  Rorschach test (ink blob test) and tell me what you see in the close up image above.  For example, among other things, I see a little sideway alien face. I've probably been watching too much sci fi lately.  
So, to win, leave a comment telling me what you see (and it can't be the same thing I mentioned) and you are entered to win this lovely piece of fabric!  I will ship anywhere in the world.
Have a great day and be sure to hop on over to the blog hop and see what else you can win.
I will announce a winner on March 16th.  
Make sure you have are linked to an email address where I can contact you or leave it in your comment.  I'd hate for you to win and then I can't find you!

Gelli Plate Tutorial with Leaves

-
Image
Here's the Gelli Plate Tutorial you asked for! My Gelli plate has been well used and well loved. 1. Place Gelli Plate on a flat, covered working surface, and place small dots of paint onto the plate.  My demo photos are with me using acrylics and paper but it works exactly the same with fabric paint and fabric.  I like using Jacquard Textile paint when I make fabric prints. 2. Use a brayer to spread the paint evenly across the plate. 3.  I used the leaves as a resist for the first print. 4. Place the paper/fabric on top of the printing plate and smooth it out nicely to get an even print. 5.  Carefully lift up the paper/fabric. Found a photo from when I printed the fabric - see same process. This is a first print. 5.  I know that MONOprinting means ONE print but seriously, when you remove the leaves from the plate there are these beautifully textured leaves left on the plate just dying to be printed.  I couldn't ignore them!  So this is wher

Autumn is for the Birds

I was thrilled when my friend Jamie Fingal ask me to create something using her new fabric line, Autumn is for the Birds, from Hoffman Fabrics. I decided to use my favorite method of creating: free form piecing.  When I create a quilt with this method I rarely plan anything out, other than perhaps a general size and a few elements.  The problem with this method is that I often have to rearrange as I go.  And sometimes I need to unpick - a LOT.  I took a few photos as I went to help me get an idea of where things were going and then based upon those photos I added or changed.  I put the photos together in a short power point so that you could see a little bit of my process.  I apologize for the dark photos as my design wall is in a dark hallway but I think it still gives you a good idea of how things went. The final quilt is approximately 30"x 37". I love the focus fabrics!  There are a lot of textures in all of the fabrics.  Honestly, I could have quilted

It's Giveaway Day over on Sew Mama Sew.   I love entering all the giveaways and seeing what is out there.  I also LOVE giving stuff away.  This year I am going to giveaway a copy of Quilt Scene magazine and a piece of my ice dyed fabric! Lots and lots of gorgeous quilts and great projects to make inside this magazine, including my article for the quilt "Unexpected Treasure" and a notebook cover called "Renegade Chevron." Sadly I don't have any jelly rolls to giveaway so you could make my quilt but I thought you might enjoy a fat quarter of my ice dyed fabric. Lots of beautiful colors mixed together ready for appliqué, piecing or it could be used as is. Now I'm sure you are wondering what to do to win these fabulous prizes! Just leave a comment for me telling me what your favorite holiday treat is. I know it's not quilt related but I really want to know! I LOVE TREATS. The giveaway will be left open until Midnight Pacific Stand
