Last weekend I went to my LQS where Tula Pink was doing a presentation on her quilts. I got to see some absolutely gorgeous quilts and she explained her design process from drawing to the actual fabric being printed.
I also got to see her City Sampler quilt that features in her new book 100 Modern Quilt Blocks, which comes out in May,she also had a different colour version to the one on the front cover on the book, they are both gorgeous and I have already ordered my copy of the book.
The local shop also made up some kits for her VW Pillow, so I bought one and I finished making it the other day. I am loving this pillow and plan on making a couple more of them. If you want to make one yourself the pattern is free online, just Google it.
I love your pillow! It turned out great! I wish I had a kit for it. That would help me get it done! I also want to make her anchor quilt for my brother, who has a lake cabin, sometime. That would be awesome for him. How great you got to go to her trunk show. Totally jealous!
ReplyDeleteAnd your dogs in your header are gorgeous. I used to have a beautiful yellow lab who looked like the one on the left in you header. I miss her so.....
ReplyDeleteLove the campervan pillow.
ReplyDeleteCan definitely see why you have pre-ordered the book, her quilts are always gorgeous.
WOW!!! How fun that you got to go! I love her anchor quilt, and your minibus pillow turned out so cute! Thanks for sharing!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing experience. I love the VW pillow. You did a great job, it is absolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm envious of your day learning from Tula! She's so inventive, I want to be her when I grow up!
ReplyDeleteI love the VW pillow, thanks for sharing about it! My sisters and I are very sentimental about the VW van and bug we grew up with. I think I'll have to make this pillow for Christmas gifts!
