Tidbits and Nuggets of Information
Posted by Gerri Robinson on
Not the most intriguing blog title to get excited about but I have lots of tidbits and nuggets of information to share and where else to share them than right here!
First up, Garden of Quilts. The format and the way we experienced Garden of Quilts last year is changing to recognize and be mindful of our current state of affairs surrounding Covid-19.
Those who were planning on attending this year's event should have received an email from Thanksgiving Point regarding their decision and what people can expect from this year's Garden of Quilts...

As you may have heard, the traditional way we do Spring Market was cancelled but nothing stops quilters and designers from getting creative to bring you our newest and latest designs and creations!

Tranquility is on its way!!! It hasn't arrived in our Shop yet but it will in the coming weeks.

In fact, I wanted to create and share these side-by-side designs originally created in Charming (on the left) but RE-FRESHED in Tranquility to show you the similarities.

It's Week 4 of the Riley Blake Designs Classic Quilt Block Challenge and when I read it was the Economy Block I had to Google it to understand what it was because I had never heard of a block called this. To my surprise, I was familiar with it but called it something completely different; a Square-in-a-Square block. So I got excited and grabbed my Tranquility prints and went to town because I knew this style of block would really highlight the prints beautifully.
Guess what I learned this week!
