Bev Proulx, Henry Glass Designer Blogs

Hello, Everyone! It is my pleasure to talk to you periodically on this Henry Glass & Co. site. As an introduction, I would like to share some of my fabric and quilt happenings from this month of May. One of my highlights was I gave twin size quilts I made from my 1930s reproduction line "Posies" and my pattern "Posies Galore" to my cousin's daughters. The girls are 15 and 10, and they truly loved the 30s look. I was thrilled that both immediately appreciated the lively colors and happy aura of the fabrics. It is always good to introduce our young generation to fabrics. Both girls are already looking forward to my new line "A Pocketful of Posies." Maybe they will want to sew, too!

My other highlights in May included my trips to Upper Michigan, Ontario, and central and northern Minnesota. It is always fun to meet quilters in the places I go. They are such a varied group and so curious about using color and the history of quilting in North America. I did two "Eye for Color" lectures using quilts, tops, and fabrics from my entire collection, which included antique and contemporary items. I also did the Quilts through Time 1750-1900 lecture and the Quilts through Time 1900-1975 lecture. Both of these lectures also include magazines, patterns, thread, and info about the "notions" quilters had through both periods. I really enjoy doing these presentations, but the feedback from the audiences makes my experience great!June is family time, so I will be doing some quilt appraisals, but not going on the road for lectures and appraisals. I will also begin working on my next line of 1930s reproduction fabrics. Until next time, be looking for my fabrics!!!

Debbie Taylor-Kerman on "Tis the Season"
If you can't already tell, Christmas is well on its way here at the Shop! And we have a new collection heralding it's almost-arrival. Today the talented Debbie Taylor-Kerman joins us on the blog to tell us about her new collection Tis the Season for Henry Glass Fabrics. It has a slight antiqued holiday look, but the designs are unexpectedly cheeky and fun!It’s a real honor to be able to showcase my work with the Fat Quarter Shop, and this is my first shot at blogging - thanks for asking me to participate guys, I’m absolutely thrilled to be a part of it.

“Tis’ the Season” is my first collection with Henry Glass, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome. All the wonderful folks at Henry Glass are just fantastic to work with and I think they have done an amazing job making my artwork come alive on the fabric - thanks to all involved, especially Karen!“Tis the Season” started off with the “Snowmen Heads” pattern and then I developed the rest of the collection from there. Like most of my work, the “Snowmen Heads” were inspired by my kids. One of my greatest joys in life is reading to them. Ever since they were young, I was, and continue to be, deeply moved by their joy, wonderment and delight while we’re reading a picture book as they discover a little critter peeking out from under a leaf or a buzzing bee busying behind the flower petals. So the “Snowmen Heads” were created with one thought in mind - to delight my kids – isn’t that what we Moms all try to do in life :-) The "Snowmen Heads” depict small Christmas critters having fun playing with the snowmen and their wonky hats and scarves.

I tried to create the same sense of fun in the designs that followed in the collection, whether it be the wonky polka dots and harlequins or the tiny Christmas critters frolicking with the Christmas presents. I love this collection, I was so thrilled when I first saw the fabric. I feel that the collection truly manages to maintain the fun and liveliness that I tried to depict on the original art.Thanks again for giving me this opportunity to tell you about my “Tis the Season” collection and I hope all of you who create these quilts have many little loving eyes scouring the patterns, being enchanted by my frolicking critters.

Many blessings to you all! Debbie Taylor-Kerman http://www.debbietaylorkerman.com/
