I love trying new things with fabric and thread. Joanne Sharpe combines those so well inher Whimsical Stitching, she even wrote a book about it! She has a great way of looking at fabric to create and tells us a bit about being fearless

Many of you have seen Koala Studios at your favorite quilt shows. You may even have them in our sewing studio or you are dreaming of them. I’m very excited to talk to Ed Moore who is the founder of Koala Studios. He shared with me how this beautiful furniture is made and a little about the company. Can you guess why it's named Koala?

Suzi Parron, in cooperation with Donna Sue Groves, documented the massive public art project known as the barn quilt trail in her 2012 book Barn Quilts and the American Quilt Trail Movement.In Following the Barn Quilt Trail, Parron brings readers along as she, her husband Glen & their dog Gracie, follow the barn quilt trail through thirty states across thirteen thousand miles as Suzi collects the stories behind the brightly painted squares. This book has stories & beautiful color photographs. The blocks are more than just something to hang up, I love a great story!
