Happy Mothers Day Weekend & Learning Trapunto by Machine
Saturday, May 10th, 2008Happy Mothers’ Day to all the Moms–whether by birth or by heart, Moms are a special treasure.
I found a couple fabulous Patsy Thompson YouTube Videos–and I thought you would enjoy these a LOT. Part 1 is on top, scroll down for Part 2. Patsy is a wonderful teacher.
Sew Thankful stocks Patsy’s DVDs on machine quilting techniques…so these will give you a great sense of her style.
ENJOY!

Product Review: Pajama Quilter Reloaded DVD by Dawn Ramirez
Tuesday, December 11th, 2007I’m *sew* pumped! I just finished watching the newest addition to my personal DVD library. The video is
called The Pajama Quilter Reloaded and it’s a brand new, hot off the DVD presses release from Dawn Ramirez.
If you’re looking for a stuffy, snooty instructor this video is NOT for you. Dawn is a relaxed, easy going, encouraging instructor that makes learning ENjoyable. Put on your PJs, grab your favorite chocolate, pop in the DVD and get ready to have a blast!
While Dawn is a longarm quilter and she shows samples of quilting on her longarm, the principles she teaches for free motion quilting are learned away from the longarm itself. That means this DVD is excellent for ANYONE who wishes to understand the concepts and principles of free motion quilting design.
Dawn shows new patterns and clear examples for how to develop your own free motion quilting style. It’s unbelievable to me how much is included for the price! There’s 87 minutes of relaxed, fun and encouraging instruction.
My favorites (at the top of my list to try) are: Dwirling, Wonky Feathers, Pebbling and Bananas…but there’s so much more! Want to see a sample?
