So I have some news... I'm going to be exhibiting at this year's International Quilt Market where I'll be showing/selling my alphabet animal embroidery patterns and kits! Eeek, it's my first trade show that I've exhibited at and I have a crazy amount of work to get done (designing a booth space, updating web and print materials, making samples, etc). But I'm hoping it'll all come together. For my display I wanted to make a quilt that featured the entire embroidered alphabet, but if I was going to make a quilt I also wanted to make my own fabric for it. Last week I designed like crazy, and above is the collection and a diagram of what the quilt will look like finished. I'm so excited! Ordered the fabric yesterday and sent it to my quilty mom to start cutting all the pieces. We'll be making the quilt in a few weeks, and I'll be sure to share some progress pics. I can't wait to see it finished! Spread the word, tell your favorite quilting, needlework, yarn, crafty store that you want them to carry Penguin & Fish products. :-)
How exciting! Can't wait to see the finished quilt.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Your fabric is adorable! We are also going to be at Quilt Market for the first time and are going crazy with preparations, there is so much to be done! We'll have to stop by your booth!
ReplyDeleteThis idea is excactly what I planned to do with all your fabulous embroidery patterns.
ReplyDeleteI think it must be a wonderful thing for a child to have...something that warms you and teaches you the letters. ;))
I must say that the quilt you are about to make, looks so stunning. The fact that you designed fabrics to match the embroideries makes it perfect. So perfect!
And lots of congratulations to you as well. You definitely deserve to go to the Quilt Exhibition - you are very talented, but I have said that before. :))
I'm sure that pepole at the exhibiton will embrace your animals and patterns...
I LOVE THIS IDEA!!! Fantastic colors- can't WAIT to see the whole thing finished. Good luck at the IQM. :D
ReplyDeleteThis is so exciting! I love your work and the embroideries I made (lion and elephant) get so many compliments. I will most definitely look for your booth.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful quilt design! Your animals are so full of personality - I love them. Can't wait to see the finished product :)
ReplyDeletegorgeous quilt patters, I was looking for some nice ideas for making a quilt for my grandsons and this blog entry just saved me thank you a lot!

I recently stumbled upon the blog post "Making a quilt from my embroidery patterns," and I must say, it's a delightful idea! Transforming embroidery patterns into a quilt adds a charming and personal touch to your home decor. For those looking to digitize their embroidery patterns with precision and expertise, I highly recommend Digitizing for Embroidery by Absolute Digitizing. Their professional digitizing services ensure that your embroidery designs are accurately translated into digital files, ready to be stitched onto fabric for your beautiful quilt.
