Summer's Gone, Time for Fall Planning!

 I can't believe it's already September and my favorite time of year!  Summer seemed to fly by this year!  I stayed busy with quilt retreats, my first vendor experience at a quilt show, and lots of sewing and tumbler making!  I previously posted about the quilt cruise and how much fun I had!  My next quilting cruise will be in March and I'm counting down the days!  

In more recent events, I set up as a vendor at my first quilt show and it was an amazing experience!  I was at Quilt Plano and the event was a huge success!  I am now in prep mode for my next quilt show, in Canton with the Texas Star Quilters Guild.  The show is October 18-19 in Canton, TX and I'm also planning to enter a couple quilts in the show, which will be a first for me!

Speaking of quilts, I have recently been playing with EQ8 and designing my own quilts!  This started last spring with the Tula Pink Saltwater quilt, Tossed at Sea, which was made from scraps given to me after my mom made a chevron quilt with Saltwater.  I had 255 triangles and no idea what to do with them!  I love the final result and can't wait to see it in the quilt show!

Here's a sneak peek at my latest design, which will be in the show as well!  I'll be making a post soon about my inspiration and process on how this one, Untamed Grace, has come to be.  

I have been staying busy with the new Tula Pink line, Tabby Road!!!  The tumblers are available for custom order in my Etsy shop and they have been a hot seller!!!  I'm about to add a 30oz Hydro-Sport style to the lineup which is super cute!  It will be available for order later this week.  

In addition to all of my Tula Pink tumblers, I've been adding Tilda, Anna Maria Horner, Kaffe, and other designers to my stock for the quilt shows.  I'm definitely staying busy going into fall!

Stay creative, y'all!
