Earlier this month I flew out to Denver for Babylock to film a segment for QuiltMaker magazine! They are doing a video series that coincides with the release of a new 100 Quilt Block magazine issue! I was super excited (and honored!) to be included! Lets just say that sewing at home and sewing under studio lights while the sound guy yells, "Ready? Big smiles! Go!" is a big change. I felt like a huge dork and kept tripping over what to say. *face palm* I wasn't nervous, there were just a lot of things I had to remember: look here, keep your mic clear, don't move this, be sure the camera can see the fabric here, etc. Not to mention I felt like my hair and make up were melting under those lights! Anywho! I'll keep you guys posted on when my segment goes up--no laughing at me!
We finished shooting in time for McKenzie (my favorite Babylock gal!) and I to hit up Fancy Tiger Crafts in downtown Denver!
They had lots of awesome fabric!
I wanted to hug these shelves!
Even their sign was adorable!
Mmmm, Liberty!
I don't knit, but this wall was pretty too!
In quilting news, I whipped up with voile quilt top the other day. I've been hoarding my collection of Anna Maria Horner voile for a while and I just decided to keep it easy and make a patchwork top. I realized later that this is my THIRD 10" patchwork AMH quilt top! LOL! I guess I have an addiction--Katie B. says it's an addiction to awesome so I'm sticking with that theory!

Wow, what a neat opportunity to be a part of that! I can totally imagine how distracting it is to be recorded =). Your AMH patchwork is gorgeous. Wise choice!
I stand by my theory. :)
