Quiltcon from home

Quiltcon is in full swing in Pasadena at the moment. I had to cancel my trip to California but hopefully I am enjoying the event somewhat through social medias. Thank you so much everyone who shared pictures of my two quilts hanging at the show and who sent me such lovely comments. Quiltcon bat son plein à Pasadena en ce moment. J’ai dû annuler mon voyage en Californie mais heureusement je profite un peu de l’événement via les réseaux sociaux. Un grand merci à toutes les personnes qui ont partagé des photos de mes deux quilts exposés et qui m’ont… +

Improv curves – Top finished

Earlier this month the goal I set for January One Monthly Goal was to complete a top with my improv curves blocks. Not only my goal is achieved, I am thrilled about the result ! :-)) Au début du mois, le but que je m’étais fixé pour le One Monthly Goal de janvier était de terminer un top avec mes blocs courbes improvisées. Non seulement mon but est atteint, mais je suis super contente du résultat ! :-)) At that moment only nine blocks were pieced and I had envisioned the two plain borders in Essex Linen fabric. I finally settled on… +

Plus Quilt – Top finished

I don’t make very often a quilt from a pattern. Not because I don’t find any interesting patterns on the market but rather because I like designing and working in my own way. When I saw Paige’s mini quilt, Positively Transparent, last year on her blog Quilted Blooms I loved it at first sight. So I didn’t hesitate too long when she offered a lap quilt version pattern for Modern Quilt Guild members  … Je ne réalise pas souvent un quilt à partir d’un modèle. Pas parce que je ne trouve pas de modèles intéressants sur le marché mais plutôt parce que j’aime créer et travailler à… +

First quilt trunk show and class teaching

Blogging is very convenient … You can speak about what you love to do while being behind the scenes.

Your public is right in front of you and you can’t hide behind your computer screen ! Bloguer est très pratique … Vous pouvez parler de votre passion tout en restant derrière la scène. Si vos lecteurs s’ennuient, ils peuvent simplement passer à l’article de blog suivant… +

Quilty 365 – Top #4 finished

The fourth and last quilt for my Quilty 365 project progressed at last ! Le quatrième et dernier quilt pour mon projet Quilty 365 a enfin progressé ! I finally went for a print designed by Carolyn Friedlander, Crosshatch white on white, for the background fabric. J’ai finalement opté pour un imprimé de Carolyn Friedlander, Crosshatch blanc sur blanc, pour le tissu de fond. I started to quilt it earlier this week and chose an even grid quilting design. It isn’t worth a picture at the moment but I hope to make some progress in the afternoon and be able… +

How to baste a quilt – tutorial

I am back from a whole week of quilting retreat in South of France with my friend of Patchmania group. Unfortunately I can’t share with you what I have been making during the week … I worked on two secret projects I planned to submit to next year France Patchwork competition on the theme Modern Quilt. I managed to sew a first top and almost completely the second one. I’d have time to finish it but … as it often happens to me … I ran out of fabric ! If I wasn’t so optimistic I would have admit even… +
