Movie Stars in the Making!

I spent a couple of hours this afternoon filming a few segments for Lapel Stick http://www.lapelstick.com/ and demonstrating how I use the product to temporarily fasten sheers and tulle to my background before stitching.


Nancy and Veronica came by from Lapel Stick and used the cutest little flip camera for filming.


Then it was Daphne's turn to demo with her little fabric collage and a nifty binding method.

Veronica told us she'd let us know when the demo would be posted on their website, so I'll be sure to post here as well. In the meantime, visit their website and see all the great things that the product can do.... http://www.lapelstick.com/

New Magazine Article

I just got my copy of the latest issue of "Quilt Life" from AQS. That's the magazine that features Ricky Tims and Alex Anderson with a wonderful array of articles, interviews and much more.
I was part of an article that featured Vancouver Island and all the wonderful ways that we enjoy life on the west coast.

Here's a page from the magazine:
