Long Beach Quilt Show Was GREAT

We had a great everything at the Quilt Show.  Saw many old friends and met new friends who know us from the website and Newsletters – FUN!  We worked all weekend with Carol and Alan, our “Satellite Studio” folks who take Bird Brain Designs to shows Robin and Tina don’t go to.

Every day we worked long hours at the show (until 7 o’clock!) and then ate wonderful food at the super restaurants along “The Pike”.  Almost (sort of) like a vacation after work – yummy.

The Quilt Show is over and we are in Las Vegas as shoppers at the Gift Show.  Finding lots of really fun stuff to decorate and sell in the new Studio/Store in Kelseyville, California.
Hope many more of you will be able to make a trip to our cute town to visit and shop at the Studio.

I’ll take photos of all the new stuff as it arrives at the Studio to tempt you to make a visit!

    We visited your Studio in Kelseyville about a month ago. After a fun time shopping in your store, and purchasing several items, we went across the street and had a yummy cookie at the bakery! Will definitely visit again.

New Christmas Freebie for you

It is now only 25 days to the BIG Christmas Day.  Whip up a few tea towels or make ornaments with our December Freebie design . I embroidered Santa holding a mini Christmas tree on a Sage Green striped tea towel.  He only took a couple of hours one night to complete.  A hint for you to speed your embroidery.  Thread a crewel embroidery needle for each of the colors in your design.  You won’t always be pulling the thread out and changing color.  This little cutie would make a great ornament too.  Just do the embroidery on muslin and finish in your favorite way.  FUN! I used our handy dandy Transfer-Eze to print the Freebie Santa and finger press on our Dunroven House tea towel.  The Freebie design can be put on your light box to trace directly onto the fabric – BUT – toweling is a little thicker and rougher than muslin.  Using Transfer-Eze solves the problem.  The smooth Transfer-Eze film put on your towel gives you a nice de...

Designing by Candle Light

Here is my new mode of designing – by candle light! A power outage for many hours in the middle of the night to late morning.  I gathered some nice brass candle sticks and got to work…..I’m an early bird!  When the sun began to rise over Clear Lake I was able to snap a picture. Not recommended for long sessions of thinking and drawing but OK at the time!   Got a couple of ideas down on paper to finalize and get stitching for the arrival of our new fabrics….they are due to arrive in December some time – YAY. Oh, by the way….remember our RedWork SALE continues today and is over tomorrow. Visit the RedWork Category and pick your BBD Pattern and make your RedWork Challenge design.  Enjoy some quality Embroidery time!
