Rob Appell videos
I am enjoying the series by Rob Appell, making a portrait quilt. I hope that TQS will take advantage of his talents and encourage him to record a series of lessons on sewing machine tips. During his episode on TQS, Rob mentioned that he had serviced sewing machines at his mother's quilt shop. He had good information - I would love to hear more.Tags: None

Wow I've been watching the videos on creating portrait quilts. He's so good though he does rattle through things so I am having to watch each part several times and his commentary makes me laugh so it's no hardship.
I'm making a start at doing a portrait quilt, has anyone else had a go? Can't believe how brave I am, still no one else needs to see it if I make a mess.

I did one as a self portrait but got sidetracked discovering the other parts of the forum. I'm still going to do the Yvonne Porcello style one of my friend.
This forum is giving me too many projects I want to do. I've done my plan for this one will spend weekend choosing fabrics. Rob did it in black, grey and white but I want to use colour. I'm going to have to do some research on how others tackle the colours for shaded areas like necks

I'm definitely with Rosemary!! I was so excited to actually finish a project a couple of weeks ago that I couldn't stop doing the happy dance!! Of course, I've started several new projects since finishing that one. And even more new projects are dancing around in my head. I get all excited about the new shows every other Monday and part of me wants new shows more often, but then I start thinking that getting more shows might put me in the crazy house as at some point the ideas will have to start fighting for room! :shock:

:lol: :lol: I'll see you in the crazy house. Oh the happy dance, but I do it for each stage as well. The last few quilts I've done that are on the gallery still make me grin and I'm keeping them mwhaahaha except tasmanian who's already gone but I shall grab back for our quilt show.
Rosemary there should be a warning on this site! If a door opens I have to go through. Shall I tie some string to my ankle

Well arn't we a couple of dirty old stop-ups! I really ought to be in bed since it is tomorrow already, and I've got to be up at a 'sensible' time to go to an EG regional day - with several rather nice trade stands :wink: only trouble is, I don't do mornings :evil:

Traders stalls a bit of a disappointment, the EG bookshop that has ususally been there wasn't this year (boo-hiss), and I only spent money at Empress Mills on 3 reels of thread (1 hand quilting) and a 1/2 kilo roll of white egyptian cotton - this fabric is a load of off cuts, but it is very fine weave and lovely & smooth & takes printing & dyeing beautifully; I would recommend it to anyone.
