On my design wall – plans for April – 2013.04.03

 

I have several projects in the works right now, all very different techniques.

I’ll be teaching a workshop on freezer paper piecing at the end of the month, and I’m working on a class sample.  I’m going to make bright red leaves on a light taupe background.

I’m starting a dog portrait of this Airedale Terrier.  Her name is Courtenay.

Last June the Vancouver Modern Quilt Guild challenged members to make blocks with our guild colors.  I volunteered to piece the blocks into a guild quilt.

On top of all that, there are four quilt shows with entry deadlines in April that I’d like to enter, and for at least one of them, I was thinking of starting a new quilt!

 

As always, I’m linking up with these blogs for WiP Wednesday.  Click on the buttons below to see all the people participating and check out their projects.

  1. I wish I lived close by so I attend your freezer paper piecing workshop! I’m going to give it a try later this month. Love the fabrics you have pulled!

    Can’t wait to see the Terrier done! She’s adorable!

    I too would like to live closer to you! That red on taupe is going to be vibrant! I want to see it when it is finished! The Terrier portrait intrigues me too. I’m thinking that you have already quit your day job ;).

    Busy, as usual! We’re going to have to get you to teach a workshop for the VMQG! Looking forward to seeing the magic you work on the VMQG quilt!

    You’re busy — and it sounds like you’re having fun, which is always a Good Thing. 🙂 Now about those leaves….I’ve seen them green, and I’ve seen them dried and rolled up in thin paper…but I’ve never seen ’em done in red. 😉

  6. And I wish I was close enough to take your freezer paper piecing course. I’d love to try it! I’ve seen quilts with a similar technique and wished I knew how to do it.
