What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

Sorry for the delay in this post. The last quarter of 2022 was so busy as I was transitioning my out of my job and the company I worked for, for 24 years. Also, in December I got to go Morocco and came back from traveling with COVID. It was a very interesting year end.

Just a reminder, this is what I have found or done on my journey moving from being a quilter to a textile artist. This may or may not be the best path for you. Let’s talk about how to get into an exhibition and ...

When I listed this at the facebook group: The Spiritual Co-Op Group online market, I dind't know it would sell within the first 7 minutes of listing!

A quick little series I did over the last week is called ‘Michael’s Roses’. It’s 16 pieces, and now I only have 11 of them because the titular Michael has piece number 12. One of these days I’ll get a scan of it, but for now, you can enjoy pieces 1 through 16 minus #12. They are 8 by 10 prints, and soon you’ll be able to see some of them at Promise You Art House in Highland, In!

Follow the jump for the rest of the pieces…

Today I have the great honor of giving the monthly Artist Spotlight to Maddie Ley! (Yes, it’s a new thing I’m doing. Monthly Artist Spotlights!) I met Maddie about a year ago, and I can tell you, she is one astounding talented human! I was there when she got that rigid heddle loom from a mutual friend. I can claim I saw parts of the beginning!

From the Amazing Maddie herself:

I’ve been absorbing and teaching myself fiber art for about a year and a half, and I didn’t start a consistent art practice until after ...

This is it folks! The last linkup for the Canadian Needle and Thread Network. Thank so much for joining us over the past eight years. I wish you all the best in future – may your needles be sharp and your thread never break, may you find inspiration everywhere, and have time to create. 

Sincerely, 

Nicole, Handwrought Quilts

Happy Tuesday friends! Whatcha working on right now? I'm procrastinating on stuff for other people, which feels about as good as you think it does. I did however do some tidying, to make it easy to start on those projects. 

Sounds like a good idea!

Hello friends! Right now I'm working on things for other people, a mini quilt for a swap and some banners I'm quilting for the SJSA Remembrance Project. Take a look, and maybe volunteer yourself?
