Quilting Frenzy

For the last few weeks I was in a quilting frenzy getting quilts done for a local store Cabin Creations by Marina.  They offer very cool log furniture for the rustic home or log cabin.  I had already created the "My Deer" quilt and a small bear lap quilt for the store.  So for the last few weeks I completed two additional quilts, a queen bear quilt, "River Rock Bear" and a queen wolf quilt, "Wolves on the Run".  These quilts are also available for sale on my Etsy site, https://www.etsy.com/shop/QuiltingBeis

Here are few pictures:

This week I will be working on my first mystery quilt "Celtic Solstice".  I will be posting pictures as I receive clues and add progress.  

Yay - Finally on Etsy!!!

So I finally opened my Etsy account.  I have posted 6 quilted items today.  Wish me luck world!!!

So today's project, after I run and get cat food (before they attack me),

Chloe my sweet quilting buddy.

Diagora my crazy little cat.

is to complete redoing the studio to make room for my new sewing machine and cutting table woo hoo can't wait.

So I guess for the third time I am going to try to blog. . .   

I have been doing a lot of quilting.  I am so addicted to beautiful fabric.  I feel like a kid in a toy store when I go into a fabric store.  I have to touch and feel all the fabrics.

I have just set up my Etsy account to sell some of my quilts.  It is strange but I am going to have a hard time letting them go.

These two quilts I made are currently for sale in a log furniture store.  

Back From Stampin' Up Convention

Back from the convention.  What a great experience.  I was on the run from the minute I dropped my bags at the hotel.  It was a whirlwind of classes, inspiration and lots of fun.  But I am back, and I am hitting the ground running.  So I am making a commitement to myself to post every day. 

Well I will be back soon to post a new card that I am working on.  Until then click the picture below to see how you can earn an extra $25 when hosting an August workshop.

Bloomin' Beautiful

I am a new Stampin' Up Demonstrator.   These two cards were created using a new set of stamps I just received.  It's called Bloomin' Beautiful.  The first card was stamped with one flower, colored with Prisma markers and then clear embosed.  I stamped the second flower, the embossed image resisted the ink from the second impression.  I repeated for the 3rd flower. I did them one a time, to be able to have the purple flower sit in front.

 

The second card I stamped the image and embossed.  I sponged the background first blocking off the top half of the image to make a table, then blocking off the table and sponging the top. 

Bird In Tree

Today's card is a brayer technique that I learned from my Stampin' Up - upline Michelle Zindorf.  She is the ultimate in using a brayer.  This actually turned out, at least to me, with a very Asian feel.
