Most of the time we see finished quilts by themselves, without seeing the uncut fabrics first. So seeing so many unbelievably different quilts all using some of the same fabrics is really inspiring. I would never in a million years come up with a jockey and horse idea from looking at that challenge fabric. I'll be looking at some of the fabrics in MY stash differently now!Rebecca Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14801489818836195754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5250006727943954486.post-32117987706614958472012-07-26T16:44:04.551-07:002012-07-26T16:44:04.551-07:00My Zen comes when I'm free motion quilting.

There is something about it that makes every other thought leave my mind - I'm so focused and completely consume with it that it's hard to worry about a thing!Bethany (Make Me A Quilt)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08625493069170684655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5250006727943954486.post-77588968593813618702012-07-26T16:26:57.431-07:002012-07-26T16:26:57.431-07:00It constantly amazes me how, with each fabric line...It constantly amazes me how, with each fabric line release, the fabrics get more and more beautiful!

There is something so lovely about creating with fabric. I have never seen myself as an artist, but have come to appreciate the talent that goes into creating with fabric. The Hoffman fabric you feature is gorgeous.Joannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10434220084140118982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5250006727943954486.post-61234844528767117982012-07-26T13:32:32.279-07:002012-07-26T13:32:32.279-07:00Great post...maybe one day I'll stroll through...Great post...maybe one day I'll stroll through the IQF; that would be fun.
