Picking Up a Neglected Project
How do you pick up a project you've put aside? It's so easy to abandon projects we haven't looked at in a while. However, if you have some time to dedicate to the project and really want to make progress, here are five tips to get you back on track.
Patchwork Heritage
I'm sharing with you some quilts that are quite ordinary, in a way, but also transcendent, even spiritual, thanks to their ability to communicate and inspire across generations.
The Connection Between Color and Well-being
When you feel that green soothes you or that red excites (or irritates) you, it's not just a feeling. Colors stimulate us, in both positive and negative ways.
Color: prints or solid color fabrics?
Do you prefer prints or solid color fabrics? If you're unsure, one solution is to stick with solid color fabrics and/or blenders where the color appears less uniform because the fabric has a "textured" look.
Embellishment in quilting and patchwork
If you think patchwork is only about fabric and thread, I encourage you to play with other materials to unleash your creativity! Why not try beads, ribbons, or sequins?
