Stay tuned for book signings at Quilt Market and a book tour here in the near future. You can check it out at your local retail shop. Here are a few images from the book.

Pretty Darn Quick - August 2014 Edition

Designer Jill Finley of Jillily Studios sent over the latest installment of her pdq*[PRETTY DARN QUICK] Club project. This month, she has designed a simple but lovely quilt using her "Park Drive" line. Download Garden Delight. We love the binding treatment. So interesting. In case you are new to the Henry Glass blog, you can access all of her past projects by clicking the link on the right sidebar.

Her beautiful "Park Drive" collection, which includes florals, paisleys, a toile and other sweet images,  should be in quilt shops this month.  "Park Drive" coordinates with Jill's fun "Jams & Jellies Basics" too! You can find the collection and the link to the free pattern download here.

 

If you haven't seen her current collections yet, make sure that you view them on the Henry Glass website by clicking here. 

 

Happy Wednesday!

So Pheasantly Pretty!

Little Quilts sent us this photograph of a gorgeous block that they stitched up using their "Pheasant Run" and a note. Enjoy! It is a gorgeous block.

"We’re doing a Lucy Boston “Patchwork of the Crosses” Blog Along on the Little Quilts blog.  Posts appear every Thursday.  I post tutorials on English Paper Piecing, fussy cutting, history of Lucy Boston, information about the Manor house she lived in, and, of course, the blocks I’m making.  One of my favorite blocks, see picture attached, is the block I’m featuring tomorrow which was made with “Pheasant Run” fabric line.  Gorgeous!  Here’s a link to our Blog Along if you’re allowed to link people back to our blog."

As readers of this blog, you know how much we love it when you send in a photograph something that you've made with our fabric.

This week we received the photograph for "Goofin' With Geese" by Maria Tavy Umhey. She recently designed a quilt that will soon make its appearance in "The Quilter" magazine. Maria used our "Folio" collection and the scraps left over from that project were used to make this beauty.

Thanks for sharing Maria!

If you have a project that is made from Henry Glass fabric, we'd love to see it. Please send a photograph of your project here.

We also have the winner of Mary Jane Carey's fabric to announce. Congratulations and please send your contact information to Lisa.

We mainly show fabric on this blog but it is great to always remember the wonderful people who work hard at making Henry Glass a success. We thought we'd share some fun photos of our designers.
