And a day off from housework.Hi Everyone,<br />
<br />
I have finally gotten my website ready to be unveiled. It has all of the usual info and a coming soon page so you can see what I have ordered for the shop and when it is coming in. I am going to work this morning on making all of the images clickable so you can see larger images. I was so wiped last night that it is a miracle I got as much done on it as I did. You can find the website by going to <a href="http://intrepidthread.blogspot.com/">the new blog</a> and clicking the shop button. The 15% coupon and giveaway for $20 gift certificate end on Sunday, so don't miss out.<br />
I had a meeting with the Andover rep and here is a peek at what is coming from them in a month or two:<br />

I am moving my blog to a <a href="http://intrepidthread.blogspot.com/">new address</a> so that it is in line with the shop name. I am hoping beyond hope that everyone will follow me over there. To that end I am having a giveaway to bribe you into moving with me :) You will have to go over there to see what it is. I know I am evil :) I am making the same promise that I made before that the blog content won't change significantly. I will keep shop announcements to a minimum (maybe one post a week) but will end the posts with a reminder sentence about any specials that might be happening in the store or new fabric that is in. I still want it to be a fun and play blog. <br />

Sugar And Spice fat quarters and laminate. Love this line so much. And check out the adorable crown that the queen (Amanda) sent for us princesses. She is a doll! This is our fodder for new tutorials over at Amanda's blog. Aren't we the luckiest girls on earth?<br />
<br />
I made my first purchase for my shop today, finally the paperwork is done. You probably already guessed it is this same line. I bought all of the blue and red colorway. I will have it up in my <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/TheIntrepidThread">new etsy shop</a> to start with (I am still working the bugs out of the online store). Be on a lookout for the Grand Opening celebration :)<br />

<br />
If you remember a <a href="http://jewelsarmcandy.blogspot.com/2011/03/happiness-overload.html">few days ago</a> I had shown you some fabric that I bought while at In Between Stitches. I have not been buying a lot of fabric for myself because I wanted to save all my pennies for buying fabric for my shop (that is getting closer just a few days and I should have the last of the paperwork back). So when I buy fabric right now I have to have a project in mind for it or I can't have it. Saturday when I should have been cleaning (well I did clean some but...) I made a new bag for myself out of the Kumari Garden fabric and some linen I bought:<br />

<br />
Here are the borders. Not that I didn't think you could do this on your own but just in case we have some newbies that haven't done it before. I know I promised a pre-view of the quilting but I am not ready with that yet. I got a little sidetracked this weekend making a bag and cleaning house becuase my in-laws are coming this week. I promise you show you when I get it marked and after I quilt it too... but that will be a week or two. So here are the borders...<br />
<br />
1. From blue polka dot cut 2- 1 1/2" x 44 1/2" strips and 2- 1 1/2" x 45 1/2" strips<br />
<br />
2. Sew the 44 1/2" strips to each side of the quilt top.<br />
<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">It isn't sideways and wonky. I am short and I have to get the quilt up high to get a picture over the top of my quilt frame which stands three feet in front of the design wall. You will see in the last picture. So I can't always get it straight when on my tippy toes :)</td></tr>
</tbody></table> 3. Sew the 45 1/2" strips to the top and bottom.<br />

<br />
Oh my goodness! I had a wonderful morning/early afternoon. I took a little roadtrip up to Livermore to <a href="http://www.blogger.com/We%20did%20some%20shopping%20(eh%20hem%20to%20say%20the%20least%20:)%20)%20I%20got%20some%20Sweet%20Borderie%20and%20some%20of%20the%20new%20stuff%20from%20Dena%20Designs:">Inbetween Stitches</a>. I had a special reason. My friend and fellow Quilted Fish Creative Consultant Team member, <a href="http://sillymamaquilts-sillymama.blogspot.com/">Brooke</a>, is in California for her nephew's wedding. She and her delightful friend, Donna, met my daughter and myself there. <br />

Here we are in the front window area (sorry Erin caught you talking, Brooke):<br />

One other thing happened before Brooke and Donna arrived... I had a star sighting... Alex Anderson was in the shop... I hid behind a shelf because I was so star struck! Hehe!<br />
<br />
Thanks for meeting me today Brooke! It was so awesome! I agree that we need to have a retreat with all the team. How fun would that be? :)<br />

I was so bad today.... I spent the whole day working on these three little pieces of art.. they are only 4" square. I love them. They will be a little mini board book, a gift for a friend of mine that is having a hard time right now.<br />

For TTT it was 1.5 lbs this week. I just can't believe I am still losing... Weight Watchers seems way to easy. It probably helps that I work out an hour a day now. I love it :)Jewelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15023887380090371582noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5826392372831749246.post-34081314230555206632011-03-07T16:53:00.000-08:002011-03-07T16:53:11.760-08:003Cs Row 5 and some other stuff ...Hi Everyone,<br />
<br />
I got to be lazy this week with the quilt along you will see what I mean :)<br />
<br />
1. From your blue on blue fabric and pink on pink fabrics cut three 7 1/2" squares each. From your cream background fabric cut 24 - 2" squares, or if you pre-cut them when you cut row one go and find them :)<br />
<br />

<br />
I was cutting the last row for the 3C's quilt along and realized I still had a ton of Sweet Divinity left so I decided to cut it into bite size pieces and give some of it to you (don't worry I still have a ton). I had bought yardage before Amanda sent me some more. I cut up the rest of the yardage I had and I am passing it along to you. There is a small fat eighth pack (7 pieces), a small "Rolie Polie" (Riley Blakes version of a Jelly Roll) (19 pieces 2 1/2 by 22, cut from fat quarters 10 fabrics total) and two charm packs (34 pieces each with some multiples). I am giving away one bundle to each of four people. <br />

<br />
I just wanted to show you a peek of my new art girl. I am so loving this workshop. <a href="http://christytomlinson.typepad.com/">Christy Tomlinson</a> is so inspirational and generous with her time and encouragement. I highly recommend her. The group in the class are all so encouraging. I promise that I will be back in the next day or two with lots of sewing and quilting stuff so don't run away okay?<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Now for the announcement... this is so scary because once I say it then I have to do it... (deep breath)... Starting soon after Spring Market in May I will be having a Grand Opening for my online fabric shop. Phew not so bad... kinda like ripping off a bandage. This week I am getting all of my business licenses lined up and it is so scary and fun. In the next couple weeks I will make my first purchases and hope to have a soft opening sometime in the next month or so. To start out it will be very small but I hope to build up as quickly as possible. I know there are a lot of online shops out there but there are not a lot of modern fabric shops in my area so this is for me as well as my Modern Quilt Guild. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I know a lot of you have told me that you like my blog because I am not trying to sell stuff so, in an effort not to alienate you all, I promise to keep my shop announcements to a minimum. I still want this to be a fun play blog and I want you all to want to be here as well. I am thinking of doing shop announcements for sales etc on Saturdays... and you know me there will be giveaways galore. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I hope you all will celebrate with me. This is a huge dream come true and I have my amazing husband to thank for it. </div>Jewelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15023887380090371582noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5826392372831749246.post-84634596138337343182011-03-01T18:08:00.000-08:002011-03-01T18:08:05.799-08:00TTT and an apologyHi Everyone,<br />
