There's a lot of behind-the-scenes sewing going on in the Grace and Peace studio right now! Here are some things to look forward to:
Kelly Young is hosting a blog hop featuring her new book, Scrappy Improv Quilting, and I'm a part of it!!! I'm very excited to introduce the quilt I've made from this fun book on September 22nd!
Kelly makes improv easy for everyone, with her illustrated steps and instructions to make 22 mini improv quilts!!! I'll be sharing my version of Kelly's pattern, "Downpour", on September 22nd, so come back on that day to see it!!!

The second event I'm sewing behind the scenes for is this little cutie's birthday party, mid-October!!!
We got to spend some time with her, our daughter & son-in-law and 2 granddogs over the Labor Day weekend!
The birthday party theme is llamas and cactus, so look for some related stitching, to be revealed after the party, mid-October!!!
The third event I've been stitching for behind-the-scenes is the National Cat Day Quilt Link Party over at Susan's blog, QuiltFabrication. It will start on National Cat Day, October 29th, and run for several days. I have a new Japanese-inspired cat quilt I will share on that day! So get ready to link up your cat quilts and/or quilt cats on that day!!! You can link from a blog or Instagram.
I invite you to come back on these special days!!! Grace and peace!!! ~Nancy
Looking forward to seeing your reveals! What a pretty birthday girl:)
