FIRST......
Have you been wanting to fill in the skill gaps? Do you have a friend that wants to learn to quilt? Or maybe you would love to pick up a few tips from a group of us during the Ultimate Beginner Quilt Along! There will be videos and tips. A kit will be ready Friday and I'll show you the quilt done in my Bonnie Lane too!

Block #8 is where we go to fix our hair! They used to be called a 'Beauty Shop', and in the pattern I tell you about one of my fun memories. Now days we have Salons and I love there are still many Barber shops. Some are really a community gathering spot. Do they have a coffee bar in them yet? My one Salon served coffee and in the evening, a glass of wine!
THE DOWNLOAD is at the end of my article HIGHLIGHTED IN PINK, so keep reading

I wanted to show you the control panel for the guide beams (yes 2 ) on my Baby Lock Solaris. You have a lot of controls to use on this one
- 2 beams
- 3 color choices for each
- and a set of position controls to get the beam exactly where you want it!
Here are both the beams in action. You can turn one off too!
Learn more and see your baby lock dealer to test this feature, it's amazing!
I need to sew more sashing for this version. Maybe tonight I'll get that done!
General Store Fabrics version:
Take a look at the difference fabric choices of the 2 quilts for today's block. In the General store the fabric choices create a stronger image than the Cheeky does.
Cheeky Fabrics version:
- Cheeky Fat Quarter Bundle - 28 FQs in this bundle
- 1.5 yds of white with little red dots
- 1 yd red dots that is in the FQ bundle is now sold out. So if you want to do similar to me select another red print or just wait until you make a few blocks and decide.
- 2 yds Roses & dots to use as a full border. The quilt layout will not have a solid border but I will put a solid border on this one as I love this dot and rose print! - pick the shade you love. OR wait and see the border option. This fabric will go quickly
