My curved EPP kits proved pretty popular, especially the Hoop Art kits which I had hanging on the end of the stand - a couple of years into doing these shows and I'm still learning how best to display my items :)
Within the first hour, I had some very enthusiastic ladies come to the stand asking about my curved EPP cushion that was being demoed on the Quilter's Guild stand - this was news to me! Eventually I discovered it was the lovely Hilary from Region 14 who has fallen for this technique in a BIG way! Thank you Hilary for sharing the love ;)
On the Sunday, I had a chance to walk around the show and see some of the quilts - I was very happy to see Abigail of Cut & Alter had an exhibit of her work. I was especially blown away by her On The Plus Side quilt - just look at that amazing ruler work and free motion quilting! And who doesn't love a little Alison Glass, just stunning!
Back to curved EPP for a minute, my Hoop Art project is featured in the current issue (71) of Love Patchwork & Quilting magazine. This hand-pieced flower ring in Alison Glass's Road Trip fabrics is mounted onto a 16" hoop - I do love this way of displaying mini quilts, and must make more!
Wishing you all a happy and creative week, linking up with Midweek Makers and Needle & Thread Thursday
I have never been to a quilt show (shocker!!) I blog with my mom and she has but not me - yet! I love your hoop - featured in a magazine that is SO AWESOME! Way to go!
ReplyDeleteI love Alison Glass fabric as well and have some of hers in my new quilt!
Thank you so much Amber, you must get to a show, they're so inspiring if a little overwhelming at first, best to take it slowly. I walk around first, then have a sit and a cuppa, then start again once I've taken it all in :) Thanks for stopping by x
DeleteSo much loveliness -- no wonder everyone was smitten with your curved EPP as it's BEAUTIFUL!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Rebecca Grace, I do love my curved EPP and so happy others do to :)
