The Black Bird Quilt: Quilt Class in Santa Cruz

Thursday, October 2nd, 2008

Black Bird quilt by Andrea Zuill  I have the sample completed for the quilt we will be making in the class I am teaching at The Crafter’s Studio in Santa Cruz, CA.

Black Bird quilt by Andrea Zuill  You probably recognize that it is based on my Black Rabbit Quilt.  It is a very petite quilt, since we will only have 2 days to complete it.  Completely Hand Sewn!

Black Bird quilt by Andrea Zuill  It is fun working at this size.  I think I might do more petite quilts. 

Black Bird quilt by Andrea Zuill  The beautiful background fabric was purchased at Hart’s Fabrics in Santa Cruz, CA.  I love this store and bought a huge amount of material from them the last time I was there.  Here is their website: http://hartsfabric.com/

October’s Free Embroidery Pattern! Ta, Da….

Thursday, October 2nd, 2008

Pumkin Girl by Andrea Zuill, aka BadbirdHere is October’s embroidery pattern.  I kind of cheated.  You might notice that this is the line drawing for a Halloween print I have in my Etsy store.  I have been so busy it seemed the easiest thing to do.  I have my first class I will be teaching this Saturday and I have been organizing my thoughts.  There wasn’t enough though left to create a original Halloween pattern.  Hope that is Okay.
