New Crazy Quilt Book by Kathy Shaw

For anyone who just can't get enough information on the art of Crazy Quilting (that's all of us right?),
Kathy Shaw is now taking pre-orders for her new book, "Crazy Quilting - Beyond The Basics".

This is Volume 1 of a set of four.  Kathy is taking pre-orders on Etsy...at a 30% discount from what Amazon will list it for.  The launch date is 1 December...so the price will go up on Etsy on that date too.   You can "reserve a copy" at the discounted rate now.

Please hop over to Kathy's blog to learn more.

2016 Crazy Quilt Calendar Cover Block For Sale

I am offering the cover block from the 2016 Crazy Quilt Calendar for sale:

I just can't keep everything that I make!  The block is entirely handmade and hand embroidered by me.  It is approx. 8 inches high X 11 inches wide.  This piece is heavily embroidered and embellished.  It features Broidery Perse, shibori silk ribbon, lace appliques, beadwork, and lots of pretty little embellishments.  The swan is hand appliqued.  There is a little beetle brooch and a flower brooch on this piece.

It is not finished into anything.  It is just the block.  I am asking $150.00 for this piece and that includes the postage.

If you would like to purchase this block, please email me and I will send you a Paypal invoice.
