Craftsy Sale and Some New Additions

I got an email that Craftsy is having a huge sale!

Starting April 5th through April 8th,
a different set of Craftsy classes will be on sale each day,

 up to 75% off their normal price.

 Don't see the class you want on sale? 

Check back tomorrow - a fresh pick of courses will be on sale!

I've been taking a free-motion class taught by Angela Walters.
 I have both her books and while they are excellent,
you just don't get as much from them. 
If you're a visual learner like me,
than this platform is for you!
 

I also just got in some new fabrics!
Color Me Retro by Jeni Baker for Art Gallery Fabrics!!

I just love all the happy colors in this collection.
And as always Art Gallery's fabrics are so soft.
Besides making their way into a quilt or two
 i defiantly see a cute top being made from these great fabrics soon!

Making Pixel Quilts

 I am totally fascinated with the pixel quilts i saw at QuiltCon.  When i was driving home that night an idea popped into my head for my own pixel quilt.  Never before have i been so inspired  by a quilt technique.  I've already started the process of selecting the image and making a pattern for it.  I've even worked out how i'm going to quilt it (at least in my head).  For this quilt to come out the way i envision it, i will need to really practice my free motion skills.  Maybe even take a class or two.  I'm getting some help from this FREE online class on Craftsy.  

The class is called Pixels To Pictures Quilt by Caro Sheridan.  

She shows you how she made her Blink Quilt (pictured below) and how to use your own image.

Come and join me.  If you never used Craftsy before this free class is a great way to see if you like the format.  They also have put many of the lectures that were given at Quiltcon, also for free!
