Time for a new room in the Amy Bradley Doll House Quilt.
This month it is the Office.
I will be teaching a paper piecing workshop at the Elkhart County Quilt & Fiber Expo on June 8, 2023. The Expo runs from June 8-10 and has great classes, presentations, quilt show and vendor market. Food trucks will be on hand.
The Expo is at the Northern Indiana Event Center 21565 Executive Parkway, Elkhart IN 46514 (Exit 96 on the IN 80/90).
They have a great website that tells about the workshops and teachers and all the events going on- check it out below.

May is time for another Island Batik Ambassador Blog Hop.
This hop is called Tool Craze and our challenge was to use the Surprise fabric bundle that was in our latest box. Along with that we were to use the Deb Tucker's Studio 180 Design ruler that we were given. Interesting challenge!
This was my surprise bundle. It's always exciting to see what we receive.
The Island Batik fabrics in my bundle was the collection Make a Wish by Kathy Engle. These fabrics should be in the shops now, so go to your local stores and ask if they have it. If they don't have it now- tell them they should order it!
The Studio 180 Design ruler I received was for making V blocks. The block is just like it looks on the label. The ruler enables you to make 11 different sizes of V blocks. An added challenge was that we were to make at least 30 blocks with our ruler and to make 2 different size blocks with it AND if we had other Studio 180 rulers it would be good to include them in the design. That's a big challenge, but I was able to do it!
I am easily inspired by fabrics, but putting the requirement of what kind of block to use with it requires a bit more thought. I like that these rulers allow you to make different size blocks, although making two different size blocks in one design was an added challenge.
The Amy Bradley Doll House Quilt has the cutest laundry room. Here is my creation.
