Moving

I'm going to move my blog over to my website at www.bethanyquilt.com. It looks pretty awful right now because I'm still in the midst of trying to figure it all out, but with a little time and guidance from my son who is home for the summer, I'm hoping it's going to work!

Accuquilt (the new toy)

I'm putting together a quilt using the tumbler die cutter - I cut the pieces for this quilt in about 30 minutes!!! All with the corners blunted at the precise angle so they go together perfectly!!! This is very cool. I'm using a new line of fabric that just came into the shop and having a blast. Photos soon....

Fun Day


This is the pin cushion part! It also has a thread catcher that hangs over the side of your table. Going to the shop so you can see it there.
I also made my first buttonhole on my 820!!! Way Cool!! I used the automatic sizer thing - where you hold the button up to the screen and move the line until it fits and then bingo!!!! The machine just makes the perfect size. So easy!!! It went on a cell phone carrier that will also be at the shop very soon.
