By now you've probably seen
Susan Beal's beautiful new book,
Modern Log Cabin Quilting. I was so happy to receive my copy, not only are her projects beautiful and detailed the book itself is so pretty and well designed.
I love that the book has a nice range of projects and explains the basics of quilting, which for a non-quilter like me is important. Susan makes quilting seem approachable and easy. I can not wait to pick a project and start sewing. Of course when that will happen with the new job I'm not so sure...
But for now I can flip through Susan's lovely book and dig through the nice big box of fabric
Jennifer Paganelli sent me and fantasize about the possibilities.
If you spend more than 5 minutes on this blog you'll be able to tell I have a thing for embroidery, I love doing it and I appreciate the highly skilled embroiders I wish I could emulate. So Lucky Jackson is sort of my hero right now. She's started a project called 365 Days where she has committed to creating one original piece of art every day for a year. And lucky us she's posting each thing every day on her blog. As far as I can tell each piece of art is embroidered (so far) and I'm amazed at the detail she's able to accomplish in a day. 
She also has an Etsy shop full of her great art.
