Finding Inspiration on the Internet - A Quilt of Heather

There is a very good chance you are a quilter that has found inspiration via the internet.  Inspiration, tips, tutorials and fun for quilting, sewing and embroidery enthusiasts are such fun.  Today, I want to introduce you to a fellow blogger that you may not yet have visited.  Heather (A Quilt of Heather) has a delightful blog, with inspirational posts.

Heather shared the following with me, to share with you:

"I made my first quilt at age 10 and haven't looked back since.  Despite many years of quilting, I discovered a whole new world of possibilities when I began reading blogs! Every day I'm inspired by projects I see online and I have learned about all kinds of cool styles and techniques that I had never heard of before. I finally jumped into blogging myself to document my work, and it's been very helpful for me to look back on each project and think about how it went as I write it up in a post. For example, on my quilted clock, I didn't realize until I created a blog post and saw a thumbnail of the clock that the colors I picked had some problems. Plus, blogging has been a great way to get advice from others, try new things (like the FMQ Challenge!) and meet new friends!"

Beautiful colors and details in this "Quilted Clock" that she is currently working on:


She had a really cute post that she shared in the 2012 Pets on Quilts Show, hosted by Lilypad Quilting:




Heather participated in the Bloggers Quilt Festival:

SewCalGal was very impressed when she shared this was one of her first quilts that she owned start to finish.  Beautiful quilt, but looks VERY challenging for a "first quilt".  Another sign Heather is more talented than she may be aware of.

And, SewCalGal was definitely inspired with her Alphabet Animals project.  This G (Giraffe) definitely caught my attention and makes me want to make such a project too.



SewCalGal hopes to have  inspired you to go visit Heather's Blog (A Quilt of Heather).  She could use a quilty hug with some followers.  A Quilt of Heather is definitely a fun blog and I hope you'll take time to visit it soon and consider being a follower too!
