It's Here! Bonnie K. Hunter's Quilter's Tech Set!

Some fun things have been long in the "behind the scenes" column, playing the waiting game to get things manufactured and released - it's been that whole supply chain back up, you know?

I was waiting for these to be ready for the holiday season - because they make such GREAT gifts!  But March is good too!

These are things I use EVERY DAY in my travel life as well as my personal life – and I know you are going to love them as much as I do.

I have worn glasses since I was 3 years old – something I don’t often have the chance to admit, and while I hated being called “four eyes” in school, and switched to contacts in high school (oh the vanity, and desire to fit in!) I gave up on that in college and have had glasses perched on top of my nose all day, every day since!

Now that I have reached the “middle age” zone – I’m finding that glasses wearing is more the norm for nearly everyone – whether they use simple readers to see closer when stitching or while working at the computer, or those of us who need our glasses every day, and are grateful for the ability to see what we are doing, whatever we are doing, more clearly.

If you had asked me back in my high school days how I would feel about having my own designs on a microfiber pouch featuring my Serpentine Web quilt - perfect for keeping my glasses scratch free, or on a beautiful mouse pad featuring my Straits of Mackinac quilt, and actually seeing my friends and fellow quilters using such a fun microfiber cleaning cloth printed with my Xing quilt to remove the sewing dust and lint from their OWN glasses – I would have said “WHAT?!”

Oh, the things I wish I could tell that much younger version of myself.“ Just keep sewing. It is going to take you places you have never dreamed possible!”

The designs on these items are from my book String Frenzy.

And the quotes make a statement, reconfirming to us why we do what we do - always!

Quilting is not just a hobby! It’s an obsession, occupation, fascination, addiction, self-expression – and most importantly for me, a way of life!

Do you feel the same way?

Enjoy this tech pack and share with friends and family! It makes the perfect gift. 

I've added it to the Gifty Items section of the Quiltville Store. I've given it a bit of a discount.  I'm limited to stock on hand, but can get more if we sell out.

With sunglasses season upon us, it will be GREAT to have a glasses pouch that shouts out my string quilting passion to the world!

Yesterday was full of bright sunshine - temps hit about 50, but it felt warmer.  That wind finally died!

I want to take some time and drive to where there is an interesting fence or something to display the quilt for photography (I'm still in the pattern writing phase, but I need more photos.)

On the "to do" list today is to take some more step-out photos and incorporate those.

So much to do!

Do you have anything planned for your Tuesday ahead?

Don't forget:  You'll find the printable PDF pattern for Rough & Tumble in the digital pattern section of the Quiltville Store. 

And the price is already marked 25% off through March 14th. No coupon code needed for this one!

The price will revert back to the full price of $12.00 on March 15th, 2021.Time is running out to save 25% on this one!

Son Jason is headed to Wallburg this morning with the trailer to pick up a couple of book cases that I am moving up to Quiltville Inn, and a few other things.

It's a flurry of activity over here, but I hope by the weekend I'll have time (and some warmer weather) to get out and get that hiking going in earnest!

Quiltville's Quote of the Day -

Vintage quilt found in North Carolina.

While things may look perfect online, everyone has a different life behind their monitors and phone screens.

⁣

People tend to heighten the positives and down play the negatives. It's human nature. ⁣

⁣

They are only showing us their A sides, not their B sides. Smoke and mirrors. Just remember that.

⁣

Most of what we see online is only what people want us to see.

⁣

Search for those who are genuine.

Have a lovely Tuesday, friends!
