The TQS project page is now open (also notice the link in the purple bar). Currently we are featuring projects that are shown on the shows or projects that use techniques demonstrated by our artists. However, we expect this new feature to have a growth in many directions. Some of the projects will be free and some will have a nominal cost. As a special thank you, Star members receive a 50% discount.
Lilo Bowman, our TQS Wizard has adapted two projects from recent shows. The quilt block project by Ricky Tims is from Show 211 and is from a quilt inspired by Ricky's Dad, Richard.
So, if you are stuck at home with no gas or are looking to learn techniques by quilting's top teachers, just take out your stash and have some fun.
