Join us in Episode 708 as Alex and Ricky teach you how to “plant your fabric stash with interest” using colorful window boxes from Alden Lane Nursery. Florals take the place of fabrics as they demonstrate the concept of visual texture, and how mixing the patterns and print scale in the fabrics you choose can add interest and personality to your quilts. Then, TQS welcomes quilt artist Marcia Stein, who talks about developing a personal style, and demonstrates how she builds a quilt based on a photograph. Lots of juicy details here, including “the skinny” on needles, thread weight and color, stitch length, and Marcia’s virtually invisible, super-tiny zigzag, machine-appliqué technique.

The Pacific International Quilt Festival, www.quiltfest.com, awards over 40 prizes in many different categories. Here are just a few of those award-winning quilts, you'll recognize some familiar names and be surprised by some new ones. Our very own TQS member, Sherry Reynolds, wyomingquilter, took home one of the top awards, along with Viewer's Choice. One of the best things about Sherry's quilts is that she quilts them on her 20-year old Bernina.
