We're thrilled to kick off our 1400 series with a visit from quilt designer and award-winning quilter Janet Stone. Ever since childhood, Janet has been intrigued by typography, and her wonderfully original designs - including A-Z for Ewe and Me, our 2014 TQS Block of the Month quilt - clearly demonstrate this lifelong passion for all things "alphabet." In this show, Janet shares a "flock" of tips for stitching accurate and easy flying-geese and half-square-triangle units, as well as some terrific ideas for creating machine-appliquéd letters . . . all useful techniques for making your own version of the BOM quilt. Also, Ricky demonstrates how to spice up your bindings with a scalloped detail.

The Quiltmaker by Jennifer Bowker won Honorable Mention at IQF Houston 2013 in the Art-People, Portraits, and Figures category.
Artist's Statement:
I wanted to honor Margaret Rolfe, the founder of the first Australian Quilt Guild, Canberra Quilters, and author of many books on quilting. Her designs for Australian flowers, houses, and animals brought Australia into the quilting world. She views a quilt landscape that melds traditional blocks with her designs.
