I have been able to destash a lot of books and magazines lately and I still have more to destash. I am serious about making space!!!⁣
⁣
These are all great materials from a smoke free, pet free home. ⁣
The destash will include current art and textile/quilt magazines and books. (Photo is a sample group—selection will change as materials are claimed.)⁣
⁣
HOW WILL IT WORK? Periodically, I will randomly select two or three newsletter readers with a USA address. I will contact those subscribers by email and let them know what is available in my destash. If they accept, then I will mail it to them FREE--nothing to buy, etc. If they decline, that's fine because they might be drawn randomly for the next destash.⁣

We celebrate the life and work of an artist who opened doors for herself and so many others.

Study her work—she was a revolutionary.

We remember.
We mourn.
We sing praise songs.
We honor her.

Starting my fabric pull for the April 2024 Quilts

Starting my fabric pull for the April 2024 Quilts Unscripted blocks for Charles @feltlikesweets⁣
⁣
My first step in the process is mark my color card with bits of masking tape, and then go to my stash to gather fabrics. ⁣
⁣
I will take this project with me to sew during our Sarasota MQG retreat next week. ⁣
