It has been a lot of work, a big learning curve and quite stressful as it seemed never ending. But finally tonight I was able to publish it. Maybe you could take a look and let me know what you think.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
As I have my new Avante Longarm now, it was somewhere to put all the details about the Quilting Services I'm offering. It also gave me a chance to take some new photographs.</div>

The first was Sunny Lane on which I did a rose and leaf pantograph.<br />

I fell in love with quilting shortly after I began doing patchwork. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Even before I could do freemotion quilting I loved it and aspired to do it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I discovered QNNtv on the internet and I watched Linda Taylor for hours as she "drew" with her longarm and made beautiful designs.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well I was lucky enough to get a </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Gracie Queen Frame and a Janome 1600P </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to quilt with. </div>
<br />

Yesterday I spent the afternoon at "An Exhibition of Patchwork Quilts" organised by the Thimbleberries Group in Newtowncunningham, Co Donegal.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There were lots of lovely quilts, cushions and wallhangings, all beautifully pieced and quilted. I must apologise in advance though as I did not get all the names of the makers.</div>

As usual, I had a fantastic time at The Festival of Quilts. I took the trip with my sister Claire, my friend Anne and my daughter Catherine who is living in Manchester, came down for the three days. I met lots of friends, enjoyed the craic and wouldn't have missed it for the world. So here we go.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The first quilt I would like to share was from an exhibition called Crossroads - A Middle Eastern Festival. The design, the colours, the applique and the pebble quilting in the background which was done in such a way as to create a trellis for the flowers to almost climb up. I loved it all.</div>

My friend Bridgeen Gillespie designed the fabrics and pattern for this next quilt. It represented Derry-Londonderry as the inaugural UK City of Culture 2013. A lot of the ladies in my classes got involved in piecing the blocks for the quilt.</div>

This one is made with French General fabrics which are favourites of mine.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
My class will be on Wednesday 17 September 2014. It will be a beginner friendly class which will teach both nine-patch blocks and an easy method for half-square triangles. Clever use of colour value gives a dramatic design.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The Friendship Cushion is the match for my Friendship Quilt which I have showed before <a href="http://sandy-quilts.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/scrappy-nine-patch-quilt.html" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://sandy-quilts.blogspot.co.uk/2012/09/quilting-my-scrappy-nine-patch-quilt.html" target="_blank">here</a>.</div>

I can hardly believe that another year has flown by and I am getting ready to head off to The Festival of Quilts in Birmingham. I'll be going with my sister Claire, my good friend Anne and the best thing of all is that my daughter Catherine will be coming down from Manchester for the whole time. I haven't seen her since the new year so it will be fantastic to spend some quality time with her.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
As usual we are making patchwork bags to take with us. Instead of the usual one bag, this year I decided to make two. A handbag and a tote bag to carry my purchases.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my handbag.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

They are both made with fabric from the Paris Flea Market range by 3 Sisters for Moda and I quilted them with Aurifil 40wt thread 2845.</div>

Sorry about the photo quality.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am taking a class with <a href="http://www.thefestivalofquilts.co.uk/files/academy_pdf_10th_june.pdf" target="_blank">Kimmy Brunner</a> about Sit-Down Long Arm Quilting so I'm really looking forward to that.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then on Friday we're all going to the Designer Supper which features <a href="http://www.thefestivalofquilts.co.uk/page.cfm/Link=35/nocache=24062014#PageAnchor04" target="_blank">Nel Whatmore</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Claire and I went to this last year and it featured Tula Pink who put on a fantastic presentation and gave us all an insight into her design process and her work. She was very entertaining and a lovely girl. So my recommendation would be to go to this event if you can.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So that's all for tonight. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
By the way, I would have posted more photographs which were fine on my computer but then took on that moire effect when I put them on the blog and I couldn't get rid of it. Anyone have any tips on how to prevent this as I've not had this problem before?</div>

I made this same quilt at a retreat, I'll show it to you in another post, but it's lovely seeing it made in completely different colours. This is one of the things that I find inspiring about going to exhibitions or classes. Someone else's colour combinations may make you think outside your own box.<br />

This beautiful Christmas tree was in a glass fronted frame so please excuse the shine from the overhead lights. It was made from tiny pieces of fabric all freemotioned to the background with other decorations and lights sewn on top. Then little presents were fussy cut from fabric and laid at the bottom of the tree. It was amazing.</div>

As you can see, it is over a month since I last posted. Sorry about that. June for me was a really busy time but in a lovely way. The kids emerged from their exams, my eldest son Kevin sat his A Levels, school and classes drew to an end. The quilting world was no different and there were some wonderful exhibitions.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'll start with the Thomas Street Methodist Church in Portadown. It was amazing! So here are some of the photos of my favourites.</div>

My eldest son Kevin is just about to start the final exams for his A Levels and last night he brought home his final piece for Technology to photograph. For the project, I was his client and he designed something to hold my thread. It's a thread carousel with a little drawer in the bottom and I think it's wonderful. </div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
As Kevin knew that Aurifil thread was my favourite and that I use it for piecing and quilting, he designed the carousel to fit the size of the Aurifil spools. I love to see the different colours of the threads and the spools are easy to lift off and on.</div>

Last week my friend Anne held a Coffee Morning at her home to raise money for the Special Olympics as her daughter Amy is representing Ulster in Ten Pin Bowling. As Anne is crazy about patchwork the idea was that she would display lots of her lovely work as we all know that everyone who likes patchwork always loves to see new quilts. Well, she didn't disappoint and to top it all the sun was shining.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'll start in the garden where Anne has a beautiful log cabin. </div>

Yesterday I went with four friends to the Legacy Quilting Retreat which is organised by the lovely Charlene Cruise. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5JZrnabGMDDbHGw7AjDwL9287AkVCG7WPEtbexOJCcfeCEytRGQqnJCy-4lXNfI08XmeZmDphaIdTkH1FcjrLkH1iKVdUSQFetW3CrI-UHYBWNjIMYZNU84Jml-0dvzIY-p4tgFloIF46/s1600/Legacy+quilt.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5JZrnabGMDDbHGw7AjDwL9287AkVCG7WPEtbexOJCcfeCEytRGQqnJCy-4lXNfI08XmeZmDphaIdTkH1FcjrLkH1iKVdUSQFetW3CrI-UHYBWNjIMYZNU84Jml-0dvzIY-p4tgFloIF46/s1600/Legacy+quilt.JPG" height="400" width="175" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is held just outside Cookstown in the Desertcreat Church Hall. The hall is fantastic with great facilities and is nestled in a lovely setting.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
The day began with tea, coffee and Danish pastries. This was then followed by Charlene showing us the quilt we were going to make.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilNP2K1meLDXlKejydSJz8PcUntefz362Ckqns7qcudPtNSts2Aw2nP5yHJ-CrctzqafeQQprQ0Tb8zPGGh8qQxSAWY291XuKc-d6PoPShelEL9n89DERC4tm3L21ma-_D4b0r1kqkhoKR/s1600/Sunny+Lane+Quilt.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilNP2K1meLDXlKejydSJz8PcUntefz362Ckqns7qcudPtNSts2Aw2nP5yHJ-CrctzqafeQQprQ0Tb8zPGGh8qQxSAWY291XuKc-d6PoPShelEL9n89DERC4tm3L21ma-_D4b0r1kqkhoKR/s1600/Sunny+Lane+Quilt.JPG" height="330" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Charlene demonstrated the first block which was a sixteen-patch. She began with a method for making four-patches that I hadn't seen before which starts with 5" squares. As we had all brought our fabric pre-cut from home we were able to begin sewing our blocks straight away. I really liked the method as all my four-patches were completed at the same time. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
We then took our break for lunch which was amazing. Charlene had organised the tables by blocks.</div>
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<div style="text-align: center;">
We were on the Washington Star table as my friend Mary is from Washington State. Everyone had a gift bag waiting for them with some lovey surprises inside. We had an amazing choice of Chicken Curry, Somerset Pork, Battered Whiting and chips, rice and salad. I think everyone went for seconds. We then had tea or coffee and little chocolate eggs.</div>
<br />
Charlene then gave another demonstration this time of the X block. We also discussed quilt labels and sleeves for hanging quilts. She then showed us another quilt which was made with the same blocks which were just bigger and placed differently to make this lovely Americana style quilt. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Everyone then sewed until 4 o'clock when we all received a little label with a quilting saying printed on it as a keepsake. Tea, coffee and shortbread were then served as everyone discussed how much they had enjoyed the day. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will definitely be going to another Legacy Quilting Retreat and would highly recommend it to everyone. I had a wonderful relaxing day spent with my friends and other quilters. Charlene is very warm and welcoming which created a lovely atmosphere for the whole day. We all learned some new things and hopefully when we get our quilts finished I'll post them on the blog.</div>

After some discussion and a bit of a Show & Tell they decided that they would like me to make the quilt called Stepping Stones from the book Layer Cake, Jelly Roll and Charm Quilts by Pam and Nicky Lintott. Duck-egg blue, pink, grey and white were the colours decided upon.<br />
<br />
So when I went to the Festival of Quilts last August the very first purchase I made was this beautiful fabric. <br />

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To some of you it might seem strange that I'm already thinking of the Festival of Quilts in August but you have to understand that it's a whole expedition for my friends and I. We go for three days and it is the best craic ever! From the journey over, to the show itself, meeting in the bar at the end of each day comparing what each of us have bought and meeting up with old friends. We are now officially booked both with flights and hotel. So now it starts to get exciting.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now we can't wait to see the class lists to see if there are any that we would like to enrol in. We also start thinking about what kind of bag to make, as we always make a new one each year. Here are some of mine.</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Looking out for the 'must have' comfortable shoes or sandals so we can walk all those miles around the show. And a big plus for me as well this year is that my daughter will be joining me for the three days. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Catherine went to university in England, graduated last year and has now set up home in Manchester. So she will be coming down to join us and it will be lovely being able to spend all that time with her. She came last year for the first time but was only able to spend one day with us. So this year I thought it would be nice if she could come for the three days.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I just remembered too that I haven't put any of my photos from last year on the blog so here are some of my favourites.</div>
