💐For the LOVE of Peonies💐KC Quilt Show Info

Hi Everyone! Can you believe it's almost JUNE!? May has flown by, mostly because we were incredibly lucky to be invited to the most picturesque wedding in France. My niece was glowing and the florals were stunning. You know I have a special love for the Peony, and the French versions did not disappoint! I was so excited to add some new variations to my “Peony Portraits” collection this Spring. I can't wait to take a few more next week in Kansas City before they are gone for the season. As they say, “take time to stop and smell the roses”, but in this case… peonies!

A few years ago I wrote a blog post called A Portrait of the Peony and shared some wonderful vintage gardening catalogs from my collection. I hope you'll skip over and take a look! 

If gardening isn't your 'thing', you can always find joy from flowers crafted from your favorite fabrics! Create and share colorful blooms with a friend. If you are looking for a Peony, try the Mum in my Fabric Flowers book! It was inspired by a Magic Pattern from 1927, which can be found in my Vintage Notions book. 

 

Both books can be found as hard copies on Amazon and Fabric Flowers is also available as an instant PDF downloads on my website! I hope you are inspired to make a bouquet to keep out all year long.

And if that wasn't enough - we are getting ready for a fabulous event that is right around the corner from me! Join me at the Kansas City Regional Quilt Festival on Friday, June 13th at 3:30 PM for my lecture, “Celebrate Friendships & Fabrics,” on the KCRQF Demo Stage! I'll be sharing my latest embroidery designs, stories and inspiration behind my new book (coming out soon!), and revealing the cover for the FIRST TIME!!! Come see me to learn how you can help me bring this dream to life!

 

The show is June 11th-14th and I'll be in Booth #833 - I'd love to have you stop by and say Hi! I love quilt shows so much, they are truly the perfect opportunity to connect, create, and celebrate the threads that tie us together (see what I did there!) — be sure to grab your ticket today.
