Cindy's Threads & Quilts

😱❤️😱❤️😱

I’m under a MAJOR remodel in the main part of my home - kitchen, part of the laundry room, mudroom & great room/living room.

My longarm studio is below the kitchen & great room, so NO longarming. They are covered & moved out of the way for the plumber & electrician. Guess what though - MY SEWING MACHINE STILL WORKS!
It’s hard to get to the design wall to put it all up there, but all those units are pieced.

Check out how far I am on this beautiful ARCADIA I’ve designed from Jason Yenter’s Carpet Bag Romance!! I’m almost there!!

If you haven’t registered for the ARCADIA retreat I’m hosting here in Utah yet, I only have a couple spots left OR join me for the monthly in person workshops at Rocky Mountain Electric Quilters in Sandy! Message me for more info on either one😊❤️

Check this one out!!!❤️❤️I just love it. Judel shared it with us, when I was in Montana a few weeks ago.

I’ve got several of the new Quiltworx panel borders available too!! Creating great kits for all of them❤️🩷

It was a quiet Open Sew today at Rocky Mountain Electric Quilters. We had Bali Wedding Stars being worked on. Diane was working on her Mysterious Courtyard with fabulous Tim Holtz fabrics. Andrea put a binding put on & then was helping Jodi with trimming (that’s what friends do - when someone is having wrist surgery!). Then we had a GREAT Show n Tell, except we were missing all the quilts that were hung at Quilt Fest!Congratulations, Diane & Xander!

We have Tropical Storm Rachel heading our way & so tomorrow will be a great day to stay in & work on my ARCADIA. Stay dry everyone!

Our final morning in Montana!🔅

It’s been a great week. Some AMAZING quilts have been started & Judy shared a ton of tips/tricks for us to help you all succeed with your own ARCADIA quilt. I look forward to teaching this one❤️❤️

Come & join me in Utah - for class at Rocky Mountain Electric Quilters starting in February or at my retreat in April. If you need the information, let me know.

Or if you are looking for me to come to you & your group, I can do that too!😉

I know, I know, I know! I haven’t share anything! My apologies🤭🤭
It’s not everyday that I get to just sit & sew/piece, uninterrupted & in such an amazing place, amongst such beautiful quilts, with so many friends, my fellow Certified Instructors & quilt shop owners. Today is our last full day, so I’ll try to share more tonight.

This may not look like much, but I’m quite thrilled so far with my Queen of ARCADIA!

Come join me for class at Rocky Mountain Electric Quilters starting in February or I have a couple spots left for the week long retreat in April. Just contact me for more information about either one❤️

This is where I’m at for the week!❤️

The only place in the world you'll ever see Quiltworx literally dripping from the rafters. Suspended in air, and so incredibly beautiful. Snowline Acres in Kalispell, MT. The home of Quiltworx, and Judy Niemeyer.

MONTANA FOR THE WEEK❤️❤️

The beautiful Flathead Lake in the distance! I absolutely love when I get to come to Montana for training every couple years. This year is for training on ARCADIA. I’m so excited & can hardly wait to share it with you - especially those coming to class at RMEQ & to the retreat in April. I decided to cut a wall size & a queen size, we’ll see what I’m in the mood for tomorrow🤔🤣

Saturday was another great Open Sew at Rocky Mountain Electric Quilters! Of course - that means an amazing Show n Tell or Brag Bag I think Becky said we need to call it now. These ladies are so incredibly talented. They inspire me to do new things all the time!

A lot of longarming getting done.

Bag making too! The cute EMS, fire truck fabric is for a weekender bag for a little boy. ❤️❤️

****I’ve added the queen version. Might tweak it a little bit more. We’ll see.****

Getting closer to deciding on what I will make for my sample at training in Montana.
Working on queen size versions now🧡💛🖤

I’ve had this FABULOUS “Paradise” fabric from Jason Yenter for 12+ years.

DECISIONS - DECISIONS!🤔
