Quilting Arts Magazine, Feb. March 2015, Inspiration.....

Quilting Arts Magazine, Feb. March 2015 issue..

Article by Jane LaFazio,



 Jane LaFazio, a great teacher and amazing artist, was published in Quilting Arts, Feb. March 2015. Her article is about her quilt series, Poke Salad Annie. She writes about inspiration and her technique, so cool. One of my dreams is to be able to take one of her classes.
I also remembered my best quilting friend, Louise, and how she gave me this vintage treasure; Stitches with Variations, by Jacqueline Enthoven. That little handbook is the best reference book ever.
Friends are like that, they give because that is what is in their heart.




My best quilting friend ever gave me this vintage stitch handbook, a classic.
This handbook was published in 1976, by Sunset Designs.

You are indeed blessed with a good friend, and many embroidery books now out of print contain stitches, techniques and patterns that we have forgotten or never used. They are so valuable. Jane LaFazio is really inspiring the readers to stitch! Let's hope you will one day be able to take her class.
