Katie's quilt, Check-Mate, is made up of Mandalas based on traditional quilt patterns. For example, the one in the center of the quilt is created from a wedding ring pattern.

Did you miss out on the AQUA Yazzii Bags?

A little while ago we had a sale on Yazzii Bags and we quickly sold out of the aqua organizers. So we made sure to order plenty of aqua and pink this time.

Now you can get that special carry all, mat carrier, or sewing machine mat that you have been wanting - or any of the other wonderful colors. Each bag is over 50% handmade, finished with a domestic sewing machine and uniquely free-motion quilted.

This Mini Supply Organizer by Yazzii is ideal for every-day, and its small size allows you to carry it by itself or slip it into a larger handbag or a tote bag.

The Yazzii Quilting Carry-All is just the right size for gatherings and retreats, and the extra-long handles make it easy to carry on a shoulder when your arms are full.

The Large Mat Carrier by Yazzii is a great solution for toting those unwieldy cutting mats and rulers to gatherings, classes and retreats

The Yazzii Sewing Machine Mat keeps all of your tools organized and in easy reach. When you are ready to go to a class or retreat, slip the mat out from under your sewing machine, fold it up, and fasten with the velcro tab. Voila - your tools are neatly packed and ready to go.

Katie took a picture of her "The Color of Infinity" quilt (you remember, the one she cut up on Show 1807: Fearless Quilting) and ran it through a software program to create this latest iteration of her original design that she calls "Mandelbrot in Wonderland."

Tiffany talks about her quilt and how it was inspired through the Facebook group, "Quilt Design a Day."

Here's what Facebook says about the group:

The challenge is to spend a little time (15-30 minutes) every day designing a quilt. To help with getting started, choose one of the two daily design-seeds.com inspiration images and make a top inspired by the photo, using the palette that goes with it.

"Go Tell It at the Quilt Show!" is a Quilt Alliance project designed to capture the stories of quilts where quiltmakers gather. This interview was filmed at QuiltCon in Savannah, Georgia in February 2017.

Are you a Quilt Alliance member? You should be! Join, renew or make a $30 donation to help support the Quilt Alliance and you’re on your way to winning a beautiful Aurifil thread collection! Drawing on April 30.

We love this quilt by Cheryl Kerestes called "Pear Drops". The quality of the work is impressive, there are a variety of techniques, and it just isn't anything we expected. It is 80"x80" and has Hand Appliqué, Beading, Hand Embroidery, & Machine Piecing. It was quilted on a Stationary Machine using Free-Motion Quilting.  You will love the close ups of this quilt. Take a look...
