While walking through my garden's today

I was reminded about my quilt
"Winter Garden" that I made last winter

I will be appearing on Sewing with Nancy "AGAIN"

The program #2420 Stress Free Zipper Creations with Mary Mulari will start airing on PBS starting December 26th.

I am in the Nancy's Corner segment of this program. It is a follow up to my 2 part program Decorative Stitch Thread Painting that was on in January 2010.

On the Nancy's Corner segment I talk about making needle felted note cards and post cards. I needle felted the background using fabric scraps then embellished the cards with decorative stitch thread painting.

The top photo is a sample of a Needle Felted/Decorative Stitched note card. The bottom photo is the cover of the Stress Free Zipper Creations CD.

This is my new book

"Your Machine's
Decorative Stitches"

It has 14 projects and tons of information. If you are interested in creating surface design and learning free form machine embroidered images from your built-in stitches, "this book is for you"!!! Pre-orders are being taken through American Quilt Society and Amazon.com
