1984_501_melinda_1.jpgRicky and Melinda Bula are our teachers as we start Series 5.  Yes, summer school is beginning, but all the tests are open book.

Color, luminosity, depth, thread detail, shading and more are covered to transform every quilt you make into a more interesting display that jumps off the wall.

Melinda's artistry has many facets.  Watch as Lilo and Angie model clothing designed by Melinda.

For those of you with short blocks of time, remember that in the bottom right wing of the remote you can watch the show a Chapter at a time.

Click here to see a tutorial on the remote and how to use the remote and make the picture full screen.

"Wow -- I loved this show!!! It was fun, informative, and happy. I think I smiled through the entire show." --JoJo

I was looking at Melinda's  (show 501 airs tomorrow) pictures in the gallery(we love photo man - Gregory Case) and I stumbled upon this snapshot of two of my favorite people - Anyone care to guess what the heck was going on? Being I am not in the shot makes me suspect...................not sure of what - LOL - We provide the snap you provide the story.

Also, if you are not set up for series 5 - do not delay, these shows ROCK! To re-up go here.

Enjoy the design, art and colors of The Republic of Turkey. TQS Member Mary Rapp (maryinwi) shares with us the inspirations that surrounded her on a trip to this amazing land.

We encourage you to stop the automatic changer and just step through manually so you can linger on particular designs.
