Learn to make the one block which will be featured in Barbara’s new book Amazingly Simple Triangle Stars. This triangle block is easy to sew, but can transform using countless intricate designs when you experiment with color and value. Stunning triangle-star quilts are perfect for adventurous beginners looking to try something new or intermediate quilters who’d like to put their skills to use in a creative way. This table runner class features how to work with a triangle block layout and an “easy way” method for template cutting.

About Julia
Julia loves the challenge of taking an image, whether from a photograph, nature, or in her mind, and creating it with fabric and thread. Her work is representational and often minimizes detail. Julia enjoys and appreciates art quilts with a new twist to the old and traditional.
Julia is encouraged when viewers study her work and discover with delight that it is not just another quilt but an expressive and compelling piece of fiber art.

October


 
Last weekend my good friend and co-worker, Linda invited me to join her at the Extra Ordinary Women's Conference in Lynchburg.
 

We had a lot of fun and were inspired by well known Christian artists.  In the end we got to see and hear Sarah Palin.


Here are a few of the Quilters Guild of the Bluegrass ladies in Lexington Ky. who took my class Chinese Checkers this summer.  It is always a delight to see finished quilts.


Carla is working on "Star Spin" quilt at Patchwork Plus.   

Autumn has done a lot of the mowing this summer.  I am amazed at how fast the yard can be mowed with the zero turn.


Benjamin and Autumn tuning up.


Next weekend I will be doing an open house in my home for the Virginia Quilt Museum.
 On Saturday, October 22, 1-4 pm I will open my home for a show
of  quilts. There will be quilts that have been featured at the

Paducah Quilt Show, Quilt Odyssey, Mid-Atlantic and Hoffman

Challenge as well as quilts from my book “Star Struck

Quilts.” 
The tour includes refreshments and
the cost is $15 per person.
