Quilting
Friends,
In the heat of our Florida summer, while I’m
not unpacking into my new house, I’m sewing up a storm. I quilted and bound 4 quilts last week! Here is one I finished a few weeks ago. Its called June Bloom, a pattern by Emily
Taylor. I really enjoyed making this
collage quilt. So much freedom! At the Sewing Studio, we’re selling the
pattern and a fabric
kit, so all you need to get is 5 yards of Steam-a-Seam2
Lite.
You may not know that the Calendar page on the website is a quick way to view upcoming events all over the state. Give it a look-see.
Happy Quilting,
Mary-Jeanine
PS: I’d love to hear from you, so drop me a line sometime.

FOR SALE: BabyLock JAZZ $650.00
I have a three-year old Babylock
Jazz that is not getting nearly enough use, and I would like to sell it.
Included is the rolling table, along with the rolling carrying case, all shown
in the attached photo.
Asking price for all is $650. I live
in Lake Mary, and if anyone interested wants to try out the machine before
purchasing, that's fine.
Contact me at 407-732-7182, or by email at spinphd@gmail.com.
Many thanks,
Catherine Foster
