Alicia's Attic

The last month has been interesting to say the least.  I started out by traveling to the Mexican Riviera with a wonderful group of quilters from Lori's Country Cottage near Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.  My husband and I took time to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary while on the cruise.  On the days at sea, our group gathered for a lecture, a demonstration-filled afternoon, and two full-day workshops.  The students did a great job to keep focused when the boat was swaying.  They put together some striking 3-D designs and log cabin designs.

Unfortunately, on the second to last day, I came down with a sore throat and laryngitis.  I've been waiting all month for my voice to come back so I could finish a video I had started before Christmas.  Finally, the stars aligned and the project has been completed.  I so enjoy putting together solutions for quilters.  This one is on how to miter binding for angles other than 90 degrees.  Tablerunners so often have pointed ends which create other odd angles.  The method I show can be used for any angle, and you don't have to know the number.  My hope is that you find freedom in your creativity to try something new with a different angle...in this brand new year.  Oh my, is it already February?!  More to do, more quilts to make, more solutions to find, more designs to write... Let me know if you have a question/problem you would like solved.  We'll see what we can do to get it in the schedule.  Enjoy your quilting!
