Sewing for Quilt Market












































































Some fun things have been going on lately.  I was asked by one of my favorite fabric companies, Lecien Corporation, to design some quilts using their new lines.  These quilts will be shown in their booth at International Quilt Market in Minneapolis May 15-17.  The first quilt uses their latest line of Retro Child Smile.  I picked a little dog from one of the fabrics to embroider.  This second quilt uses their L's Modern and L's Modern Mini line and one of their solids for background.  I love the riot of color!  I have always loved Japanese fabrics.  One of my very favorite Lecien lines is Flower Sugar.   It was a fun experience and I hope to do more in the future.
