A Short Visit to QuiltCon

Last week I had fun teaching a workshop on the Butterfly Orchids for the Greater Columbia Quilters in South Carolina.  I had a great time teaching and visiting with all the quilters there.  

I was home only one day, then turned right around to fly out to Nashville to visit #QuiltCon.  It was strange not being in a booth.  I could do whatever I wanted and even go back to the hotel before the show closed.  

I already posted some pictures on Facebook at the time, but am adding more pictures Last weekend I was lucky to fit in a visit to QuiltCon.  It was a lot of fun and I took many quilt pictures for anyone that wasn't able to go.

We arrived early Friday morning and flew back home Saturday night.

    Thanks for sharing all the photos. Wish I could have been there but your photos gave me a feel of the show.

Notion Commotion Blog Hop - Bias Binding Simplified Ruler

Good Morning - Today its our turn to blog about a Notion discovered at Quilt Market. My special featured tool is a ruler:    Bias Binding Simplified, designed by Janice Pope for Creative Grids . I can’t wait to show it to my students since it makes bias binding so easy .  Best of all, the ruler has all the instructions printed right on it, so there is never a question on how to use it.     It is 21” long on it’s longest side and has a 45° angle on one side, it is 2½” wide with an added 2¼” line for cutting binding in two sizes. Why even worry about Bias Binding? - Bias Binding is much stronger than straight-of-grain binding and absolutely essential to bind quilts with rounded corners or curvy edges.  Bias binding will smooth out around curves and make the binding lay flat and pucker free.  Once you use bias binding you will want to use it for most of your quilts -  I definitely do, even for small quilts and table runners. Here is another fun use for the ruler
