Today if the last day of the tutorial all about recovering a lampshade with Mont Marte fabric paints at www.quiltsocial.com. I'll be discussing how I outlined each of the designs on the lampshade with free motion stitching. The free motion stitching really makes the floral designs come to life. Check out the post and be sure to comment below & let me know what you think and/or leave me any questions you may have. Tomorrow, I am embellishing the easiest tote ever at QUILTsocial as well so check back often to see what I am up to with these amazing fabric paints. Happy Wednesday!

This is a creative look at how to recover a lampshade and it could be very customizable with any design or theme your creative mind can think of.
It was so much fun to paint with these paints, they are bold, non bleeding, gorgeous colours and oh so easy to work with on fabric.

Today is all about fun & sewing with your sewing machine & finishing up the Valentines Ear Bud Pouch. The prep work is behind us! I’m using my Bernina 350 sewing machine, the #37- ¼” foot & the #4 zipper foot. Check out yesterday’s post below if you missed the cutting instructions. Sewing

Tip: Remove pins, engage needle down function & move the zipper open as you go, this helps to allow for a straight line of sewing.
Your Valentines Ear Bud Pouch project is complete. Think about your fabric stash & what colours you have to make a Valentines gift for someone special. A ¼” foot, zipper foot & a Bernina sewing machine is all you need to make someone’s day. A little chocolate would'nt hurt either!❤️ Wishing you a Happy Valentines Day, I hope someone is sweet to you! Do you need a small Valentines Day gift suitable for young & young at heart? You can create one of these heart shaped mini pouches, they’re fast, easy & so useful. These pouches are fantastic for the storage of ear buds (earplugs), jewellery, lip balm, coins &/or pop some chocolates in it for treats on the go. I used my Bernina 350 sewing machine & found myself addicted to making these! Note: This is part 1 of a 2 part series of blog posts. Make sure you visit again tomorrow for part 2. For today’s post we will be making the dark green one as shown. What Will Be Needed

I'm excited to announce I dusted off my video/tech fears (they were growing dust elephants!) and I started a YouTube Channel with the assistance of my daughter Mallory. I have been asked many times over the last 12 months to provide video classes. I'm starting out in JK (not literally, but you get it) with YouTube video tutorials and working on classes! Hang in there for all those who have been asking. I'm hoping for the wait to be over soon. That being said there is a lot of work that goes into the videos/ demos so please add your comments (good or bad) and subscribe so I know you are interested and it's worth your time! The video below explains what I have happening for May and each month I will announce what is going on for video tutorials. Sometimes there will be free pattern downloads as well. My you tube channel is Quilting In The Loft. The first video comes out May 3 and the second May 17th. Have a look, I'll look forward to your comments and ANY suggestions you might have. Have a great weekend! Yes it's true you can make your own textiles with Sulky Ultra Solvy and the tiniest of fabric scraps you've been hanging on to!
