Both will hang on display during the Show from January 9-11, 2014. The Show will be held at the Palm Beach County Convention Center in West Palm Beach, Florida.

Definitely a trip for us and so close to home.

My Quip - Bloody Allergies - Joseph's Coat Update

Good Day,

It is a love/hate relationship. This time of the year is the most beautiful with the colors of new blooms, the abundance of shades; the time to feel alive… I love the expressions of Mother Nature.

And then the pollen begins! Hell, I hate this time of the year. Every time I got outside, I come back into the house with a film of pollen trigging an endless stream of nasal drip-drip-dripping, multiple sneezes to burst any sound barrier, and a constant trail of used Kleenex everywhere I turn.

I am now sitting at my PC, praising the Ø1 gods that I know where each letter and key is located on my keyboard. My eye lids are swollen from pollen irritation. And I keep saying to myself, just two more months of this, please let the days pass by quickly.

I thought you would like to see a new update of our progress on Joseph’s Coat. The quilt top is finished…and it is gorgeous.

Here are a few disclosing images.





The dimensions, at this point are: Width – 77 ¼” (196.2 cms) and Length – 87 ½” (222.2 cms). The size of Joseph’s Coat, at present, approximates the size of a Double Quilt. The top fabrics are a composition of 44 colors of the Robert Kaufman collection of Kona Cotton titled Dusty Colorstory.

If you are interested, and would like some more information of available quilts, regarding costs, shipping, and insurance, please check our Quilts SB Etsy shop.

My Quip - No Nom de Plume for Evolution - MQX East/West 2012

Good Day

Thought you may like to see what I discovered on Page 11 of the 2012 March/April Issue of Machine Quilting Unlimited magazine.

Think we’ve started over in another place, and another time.

And Andy has not created a nom de plume. He still is the same, quiet and reserved, Andy Brunhammer. No fancy name for this quilt artist.

We’re working on Evolution to get it ready for MQX East 2012 in Providence, Rhode Island in April. Evolution will also been on the road to MQX West 2012 in Portland, Oregon in October.

Hope to see you there.


Enjoy,

Jim and Andy.
