Good Morning, Quilters!

Speaking of good design…

American Quilter Magazine

For more that six years, I have written the “My Line” column in American Quilter Magazine.  (Thank you to Ann Hammel, editor-in-chief who was an early follower of The Inbox Jaunt!)

American Quilter Magazine is one of the perks of being a member of the American Quilter Society.  Membership also includes early access to shows and workshops and discounts on products and classes.

The magazine is chock full of great patterns, product reviews, award-winning quilt inspiration….It is a must-have in YOUR quilt library.  (Not to mention an exciting prize in your mailbox!)

Please share a small quilting victory.  

We would LOVE to hear about what you’ve learned over the past weeks.  Perhaps you’ve discovered you work better with a hoop than with gloves. Or you’ve overcome your fear of adjusting tension.  Maybe you’ve discovered the joy of doodling…

Everything you’ve learned is a small victory!

Have you finished quilt or project, or learned a  new motif…Victory!

Note About Seamstresses in Fine Art

For the past five years, LKQ Saturdays have been dedicated to “Seamstresses in Fine Art”.  While I’m sure I can find another five years worth of Seamstresses (they were a very popular subject) I would like to change things up a bit…For the next several months, I plan to highlight art by museum.  In August and September, I will share highlights from the collection at The Art Institute of Chicago.  I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago so it was my introduction to fine art, and I suppose will always be my favorite museum. Last Saturday, we started with Georges Seurat’s  A Sunday on LaGrande Jatte.  

I hope you will continue to be inspired by and enjoy Fine Art Saturdays--one museum at a time!
