WooHoo! Natalie Barnes #handmakerfabrics Blog Tour
Just about a year ago my friend Natalie Barnes or Beyond the Reef Patterns asked me to be part of the rollout of her first fabric line for Windham fabrics. To say I was excited to be part of this celebration of Natalie and her accomplishments would be an understatement, and I jumped on board to have a bunch of her quilting buds create a wall of smaller quilts - 30"x30" for her quilt market booth promoting the new fabric line.
Each of us on the wall created a quilt especially designed for Natalie and her wonderful #handmakerfabrics. When I received my fabrics I just had to make flowers -- the colors are vibrant and fun, and I loved the simple (yet complex) patterning.
Below is the quilt: Flowers for Natalie
Meanwhile, take this opportunity to leave me (in the comments) the name and city of the quilt shop where you plan to check out Nat's wonderful new fabric.
That's all you need to do -- You could be the winner selected next Wed.
For more fun, don't miss out on more patterns and other giveaways by following the blog tour stopping at all the cyber stops noted below:

Mark-Making Opportunities in the Works
Lots of creating going on -- though not a lot of quilt works happening.
This past summer I wanted to start playing with paper mache --
Building 3 dimensionally
Getting dirty
and basically having fun.
these 3D playthings have turned into a new place to try out some of my mark-making ideas. It all begins with balloons - newspaper - cardboard - masking tape - and homemade paper-mache glue....
Then they can turn into things like these.
