For those of you who aren’t yet in the know, C&T Publishing authors are big in the blogosphere. Here’s a little bit about some of our blogger authors and links to some of the gems they’ve recently posted to their blogs:
Laura West Kong is the author of Fast, Fun & Easy® Fabric Cover-Button Jewelry, a September 2009 release. She designs quilt patterns and fiber art, but has dabbled in many other crafts as well– she even made chili pepper piñatas for Cinco de Mayo! Check out this great Sew-n-Go tip she recently posted to her blog, Adventures of a Quilting Diva. I knew there had to be a use for empty dental floss containers!
Terrie Sandelin, author of Miniatures in Minutes, is the queen of miniature quilts. She just posted a great new project that uses the Pyramid Triangle foundation from Miniatures in Minutes to her website— scroll to the bottom of her Projects page to download the instructions for making the below Stacked Diamonds miniature quilt. Isn’t it pretty? Also, I love this recent post on her blog, Bits and Pieces, which offers up a bunch of great uses for your completed mini quilts. Apparently these little guys are addicting!
Rayna Gillman, author of Create Your Own Hand-Printed Cloth, is a mother and a professional artist who teaches surface design all over the U.S. This recent post on her blog Studio 78 Notes shows some fantastic work by students she challenged with a piece of pink fabric. Challenge really can be the mother of inspiration and creativity…
Becky Goldsmith and Linda Jenkins (otherwise known as Piece O’ Cake Designs) have a new book, Appliqué Outside the Lines coming out this July, bringing the number of POC books in our current catalog to a whopping 10. I love their garden-inspired quilt designs, patterns, and fabrics and they frequently post great content to the Piece O’Cake blog as well as their website, such as The easy way to hang a quilt and projects Wedding Birds and Cupcake Stand.
