Ombré and Big Floral Mash Up!

​Patty Murphy makes a super quilt with a few tossed in recos from an ombré nut (me!) who can't keep her mouth shut...Yup, this post is about Patty Murphy's Aether Quilt which will dazzle the honey bees and make rainbows jealous! She is a gem of a human and a color maven- once you study this quilt, you'll see why! 
Picture
Patty working out the Orange Peels on the wall to ombre the florals.
Patty and I are cofounders of Create and Sustain. We talk a lot via Zoom about the environment, how to help our industry be greener, be more conscious about our impact on the earth and important issues like that. So she had this WIP Orange Peel quilt in the background for a few of our sessions that kept morphing around as WIPs do.  One day, I asked her, "Hey Patty, are you putting white in the background or doing something different?" I waited for a reply as my mind was dancing seeing those big bold florals of  Kaffe Fasset/Anna Maria Horner types.
Picture
Watch our recent IGTV on Instagram. The Q&A where she tells us the story of her process. The Batik she was pondering before I dropped the SKY bomb!
She says, "I am not doing a traditional white background, but pondering a batik" I say, "What batik?" and she shows me. "Oh" I squeaked. I was literally sitting on my hands and biting my tongue until I couldn't take it anymore...My mind was swirling in SKY ombre (shocker). I had to restrain myself from just blurting out SKYYYYYY: So I took a pause and said, "Hey Patty, remember those 30 half yard cuts of my SKY Ombrès I sent you, have you thought about using those? They may be really something mixed with those florals". I had been wondering for months when someone out there might start mixing big bold prints with my SKY and here it was right on Patty's design wall. She had something else planned and confessed that opening up the special bundles was a big deal. But we now know she did and the results are much more than the sum of two parts. My jaw dropped to the floor next time I saw her design wall. Seriously...
The M A G I C is real! 
Picture
Off and running Patty is slicing and dicing and designing!
Watch this cute clip of Patty and Kermit moving around the pieces to get it just right. Watch the IGTV interview to hear about her process, get her pattern on Etsy and the fabric from my shop (Sunrise and Sunset HTHI towers)
Picture

Picture
She uses various Aurifil threads to do her topstitching of raw appliqué onto the SKY background
Picture
She started with hand appliqué and wanted to finish it before she turned 97 so opted for alternate method of machine appliqué.
So that is how the story goes and from there, she was like a wildfire with the cutting up of ombre, playing and placing and having a grand ole time being so so creative. It's all about that juice! 
Picture
get your peels figured out and then your background after.
Picture
The top is done. 70x70 We are all wondering how she's going to quilt it! Stay tuned :)
There you have it. It's stunning and has had a HUGE response on Instagram so if you are just on my email list and don't give a mice's butt about that stuff, don't feel like you're missing out (except the videos, they are fun)
Finally, drum roll please: I have very exciting news that also makes me bite my tongue and sit on my hands because OCTOBER 8th MY NEW 16 SKY OMBRES LAUNCH with Robert Kaufman! I have a few videos and a 34 page lookbook that is dropping and it's drop dead gorgeous! Lots of very special makers showing their talents with new SKY. Can't wait to share. I will be posting about that next week! Off to Madeline Island to teach next week, you'll hear from me via IG. Be well and keep the ombre fire sparkling.

The Better Sweater for Berkeley

9/24/2021

1 Comment

 
Picture
Look at those elbows :) I love it more since the mend!
.The holes got so bad at the elbows that I could no longer put my arm into my studio sweater without catching my hand. You could push a melon through it, it was so cavernous. After years of love, service and being run over by my studio chair wheels a thousand times; the soft, whisper light cashmere cardigan desperate pleas for  help were finally answered. I love this sweater. It was perfect for all weather. I would not dispose of it. I am trying to do a whole lot less of that! Plus I was about to guest teach on behalf of Create and Sustain at University of Berkeley to a class called Politics of What We Wear and I wanted more samples of mending to share with the class. Deadlines always get me going. So....who in your closet is crying for attention? Asking for a some snappy mends and bright yarns to spice up the party? No one wants to land in the dump. Just ask your clothes. 
Picture
Wow, that is a big hole. And there is two of them!
Picture
Mended with lightweight thread before stitching rectangle with ombre wool yarn for rustic elbow patch effect.
I am sharing this rustic and imperfect process to let you know anyone can do it....We look at our clothes differently when we really care for them. CAL students were asked by their professor to bring clothes they love and needed to repair into class...Something they would fix themselves. We mended pants, t-shirts, camisoles, stitched designs and sewed on missing buttons and fixed runs. I think they enjoyed the mindfulness of just sitting, stitching and showing a little love and attention to what they wear. Their class discusses issues of fast fashion, the politics of the clothing industry and how can we be more sustainable. A broad topic I was thrilled to offer a small bit about a maker's take on the clothing we wear. 
Shows the simple and imperfect way to make the hole smaller. Using 50wt Aurifil and quilting needle, I pull the hole tighter but not too tight. Second step is choosing a yarn (mine was a ombre hand dye from Australia) with a chunky hand. I needed a bigger needle and took length long pieces and just started stitching up and down, then left to right to create an integral patch. All part of the sweater. I did a few rounds to beef up the elbows and make sure my patch area was beyond the mended hole. Sorry I was so engrossed in making that I forgot to film! 
This is what it looked like before I tied off the loose ends. Below shows detail of the yarn. So pretty right? 
Picture

Respect your well loved clothes! Mend the holes!
Picture
Thread ✔️ Needles ✔️ Pins ✔️ Enthusiasm ✔️ Smart Discussion ✔️
Picture
This image makes me so happy. Rock on Dr. Jennifer Bussell for making this happen!
Create and Sustain non profit was thrilled to be asked to share our vision about what that means in the quilting and sewing industry. How are we accountable? What can we do better? How do we spread the word and inspire others? How to we get our suppliers to do better? Be more transparent and accountable? By presenting to a college class majoring in political science is one of the ways. We were delighted to share what we know, dive deeper into what we don't and keep on teaching and doing. The students were engaged, inquisitive and even if they had never even threaded a needle, the jumped in and started sewing. It was thrilling....or at least I was thrilled ;)
Picture
PoliSci students at CAL are sharp and so are needles...they mended well. We talked about the clothes and politics of what we wear. So much more to discuss.

Dr. Bussell's books for her class curriculum. She's incredible. Follow their Instagram account to learn more about this necessary topic.
Picture
Their future is in our hands. We cannot continue to support unsustainable fast fashion and it's role in the demise of our planet's health.
Picture
Erica began with her name and will continue to embellish. And a little NorCal vs. SoCal rivalry is a must.
Have a great weekend everyone. Stay balanced, laugh and breath deep! And promise me you'll mend something in your closet or goodwill pile to give it new life. Below are a couple of links I like and there are hundreds more! Find one to suit your style. 
Creatively yours,

Morning Mirror. Emigrant Wilderness backpack trip with my dear friend.
Summer has been beautiful... It's time to look back and reflect on a few highlights for this post. Today's focus is on color in nature and quilts...I hope you enjoy this photo montage. It's less about my words and more about what I see. Nature is at the core of my inspiration, what I design on fabric and how I am inspired through quilting. I also highlight makers who are simpatico. Our natural world is so incredibly precious...We must protect, preserve and promise to be better stewards to our planet.

INSPIRATION Rosie Lee!

5/23/2021

4 Comments

 
Weekend Inspo- Rosie Lee Tompkins Quilt Exhibit, BAMPFA Berkeley California. 
Picture
String 1985
A post on a Monday afternoon from me?? Hasn't been done but I couldn't wait until Friday to send this to my peeps. I am so inspired by this weekend's trip to see the most wonderful quilts (some never shown before) of the incredible Rosie Lee Tompkins: A Retrospective that I have to immediately share it. And shout out that if you can go see this in person...YOU MUST! (until July 18th). BAMPFA is the Berkeley Art Museum & Pacific Film Archive located on the campus of CAL (University of California, Berkeley....Golden Bear territory) and honestly speaking haven't checked it out often enough over the years. One of the silver linings of COVID for me is that when I CAN'T GO somewhere, I really miss it...it's the wanderlust DNA in me. So the first things I am doing with my free time...(starting with celebrating my assistant's 3 month wonderfulness) is rebuilding my creative MOJO by soaking up museums, music festivals and general public hang out seshes with street performances that seem to be popping up everywhere....The Alameda Flea is in three Sundays...Squeal! My soul has wings ready to fly right now! No more moss growing on me! 
Picture
I'm going back to do the same thing again.... soak it all up
Picture
Picture
1936-2006
Rosie Lee Tompkins is the art pseudonym for Effie Mae Martin Howard, a brilliant African-American quilt maker and fiber artist of Richmond California who is a renowned artist of the 20th century. BAMPFA has a slide show about Rosie Lee that is informative and celebratory, sharing her command of color, composition and finishing one top to go to work on the next. She believed her artistry was a gift from God and her quilts reflect a deep reverence for spiritual life and beauty. Quilters such as Irene Bankhead, often finished her work to become actual quilts.  Eli Leon (1935-2018) an African American quilt collector was a friend and patron who met her at a flea market in Oakland in 1985. Below are all her quilts I photographed while at the museum over the weekend with some details showing her love of velvet, mix of flea market finds, new fabrics and various ephemera used in her appliqué work. Enjoy these if you can not see in person....But if you are hankering to get out of dodge, come on by! Your cotton "I'm Quilt Crazy" socks will be blown off!  Pace yourself for all 30+ images below. CELEBRATE COLOR AND QUILTS!

It's a Mixed Bag, Baby!

Picture
Tote Finished Size 12" x 14"
Today's Inspirational Post:
UPCYCLE: NEW: RECYCLE: USE: MIX IT UP.....Interesting combos to create something new and unique!

So you've got some odd and ends stuff around your maker space? Let's incorporate them into a simple tote bag! I will share my most basic pattern dimensions and where my "stuff" came from. Use what you have. Repetition of material works. Make do and see what happens. I don't throw anything out. Yes, I buy/design new and I keep old. I use stuff up. Why "saving the good stuff" for later? "Later" may never happen! (even my mother's wedding silverware has become everyday use)
​
Bag Details below after my Maker's Dance break below: Watch and suffer my moves.
Kids welcome the camaraderie. At least I am no Elaine! #SeinfeldRocks
Will is the most fun to play around with when I video a new Maker Dance. He is full of laughter, "Oh My God Mom!" and his darling girlfriend is showing me moves to mimic. I'm down with that kids! They don't want to be in my videos...yet. "You do you mom, we'll just film it.... "

New Kaufman/Sara Parker fabrics

Leather book samples from furniture friend. Perfect for straps and bag details.
Picture
Very old DMC floss. I no longer use the 6 stranded floss. It's ideal for creating new texture!
Materials Used:
1. New Sara Parker hand printed textiles. So worth it! Robert Kaufman heavyweight denim sample. Cut two rectangles 14" x 16". French seams. Boxed corners at bottom. Fold over top. No extra pockets. 
2. Leather book samples from furniture friend. Perfect for straps and details. Today I used them just for straps. Cut strips at 1 1/4" by length of sample. Used brass 1 1/4" hardware to extend length of strap while adding a cool style element. (see images below for detail) Finished strap 22"
3. Very old DMC floss. I no longer use the 6 stranded floss. It's ideal for creating new texture instead of throwing or giving away. Organize based on color and then lay out what excites you! Hold in place by hand and then sew over them adjusting as you go. I like heavy weight thread and long stitch. 
Below are the first ideas using DMC floss made into Valentine's Day cards for my girlfriends. Nice way to explore an idea. Background paper is the printout of my SKY Ombre designs. Sneak Peak: New colors coming down the pipeline! Stay tuned :)

I used a whole bag of unwanted threads to make cards, bags and so thrilled with results. What's old becomes new
NEWS FLASH: Regarding this subject of making do, If you are not on Instagram, you may have missed our launch of new non profit CREATE AND SUSTAIN TM which I have not blogged about yet...So here is the link to check it out and read our story. More to come later on that. It's super exciting and much needed!  
Picture
Interior bag. Trim is wool from Norway. Mom's old box of sewing trims has little treasures! Made in 1950/60's probably.
Picture
Leather Strap detail
Choosing two different fabrics similar in weight gives the "front" and "back" of the bag interest. Also note how I repeated the design element and used 17 DMC skeins total. More bold on the denim side with yellows and oranges and that important grey/black for a value change. Note as well the muted colors such as beige, tan, peach and pale green. These are just as important as the brights. 
Picture
The decision to trim one side and keep the loop on the other side was also easy. It tells the story of before and after. Adds interest and reads more artistic. Same with the strap. I did three rectangle brass links on one side and two on the other. Unexpected is exciting to me. If you have a label with your name on it. Put it on the outside! Tell the world you are a creative and that you make cool sh*t. Note the carry over of small DMC detail on printed Sara Parker side. Like the repetition again. Always looking to put repeated ideas into work. Our minds like that. #creativebrain #cravespattern
Picture
That's it in a nutshell. Try something at home. Don't get hung up on the bag  dimensions. Enjoy the creative embellishment and using up your stuff you have around already. Make do and have fun. Then go out and enjoy a meal with friends. Masks off! Drinks Up! Dancing all the way!!
Xx Stay Creative!

Butterfly Love

1/24/2021

4 Comments

 

February is for LOVE and BUTTERFLIES....

Picture
Last year while I was working on the finishing touches of SPRING SHIMMER projects, I was asked by Quilty Box, a subscription quilt kit company, to design a quilt for their February 2021 box. They fell in love with my Spring Shimmer line (previous post), especially the butterfly print. Delighted, I selected 15 fabrics and had a Union Square block idea in mind with added sashing to highlight the main print in the center and use a variety of values and prints for the HST. I love how it turned out. Simple. Joyful. Bright. I call it Butterfly Box. It's perfect baby size or lap quilt. Plus I have a story to share about women's resilience, challenges overcome, sisterhood and family which is represented by the mariposa mosaic mural behind my quilt in photo. I hope you enjoy my thoughts and wanderings, local as they may be. You know how much I love butterflies- the symbol of hope, rebirth and human capacity to soar! I am pretty sure you love them too, and we all have our own reasons. 
​It was a quiet winter day in Northern California, I was searching for some Napa city art to take a photo of my new quilt. Known for their outdoor murals, I meandered around empty streets weaving through downtown with my car windows slightly cracked to let the cool breeze in when I caught sight of this butterfly filled mosaic wall- a perfect backdrop to Butterfly Box. I pulled over and jumped out of the car beholding this surprising and perfect find. 
With no photography partner, I was challenged to take this photo so I stood for a long time admiring the magnificent glass mosaics, appreciating the creative wall. Then, lucky for me, a woman walked by, who happened to be the head of the Cope Family Center (the building on which the mosaic is mounted) and kindly offered to take my photo. When I asked about the story behind the mural, I was amazed to hear such a powerful message. Serendipity had struck. I have paraphrased the story below so you too can learn about this moving art which was born from the hearts of NIMBUS ARTS and Mariposa(Spanish for butterfly): a young Latina women's school  program. (they also have a young man's program: Bridging Brothers which are both a part of the Napa Valley Office of Education.)

I also show the various inspiration and steps to making this quilt and what I think about when designing this quilt. You can order this kit from Quilty Box and make your very own version. Either subscription month to month or just the one time, February Designer Box for around $48 I believe. I also have FQ bundles in the shop of the entire collections shipping now. 
Picture
Quick color sketches are my favorite way to work out an idea. You can see I didn't go into outer squares with butterflies but kept them only in the center. 
order quilty box kit
Picture
It wasn't easy choosing which color to focus on. I love all of them, but marigold was the winner for Butterfly Box!
Picture
15 Fabrics in kit: Main butterfly with honeycomb, wing details, smoke bush, plaid, chalk and charcoal brown plus a few Kaufman basics.
Picture
Butterfly wing span measures just over 4"
Picking a good color palette is like making good soup. Texture, variety, mild and spicy overtones. Know your quantities of each ingredient, adjust the taste as you create and by all means don't serve it the first night. It's always better the second day. Then add the final touches! 
Picture
Early stages of block building. Happy with how it was evolving I knew it also needed a very thin dark sashing with red dots to add spice and depth.
Picture
The dark Chalk and Charcoal brown and navy smoke bush sashing with red center really works!
Picture
For trimming HST, any 3 1/2" ruler works, but my favorite are Quilter's Select
order Quilty box Kit
Picture
To make my HST I used the "magic eight method" by chezstitches.blogspot.com. I like this method for perfect results of trimming later.
Picture
I love using Aurifil's bright colors to quilt with. So, lets do this goldenrod!  
Picture
Pulling the pieces together and it's shaping up nicely!
Picture
A Nimbus Art & Mariposa Collaboration
About the Mosaic: Located at Cope Family Center in Napa, Nimbus Arts partnered with Mariposa, a program offered to Latina girls in high school and middle school that promotes female empowerment and encourages girls to set goals to live a life without drugs or abuse. The latina  girls learned to make glass mosaic butterflies from Nimbus artists, then went to local schools and taught others how to make the butterflies, which would be used to create a kaleidoscope of positivity and inspiration as a public mural.
​The three women in the mural represent a mother wearing a traditional Mexican dress, a teenager representing the Mariposa girls, and a younger girl chasing a butterfly that leads to a sea of butterflies filling the sky. The dark tiles at the bottom you see broken hearts, buried dreams and alcohol bottles all symbolizing the difficulties Mariposa girls have risen above. The butterflies represent the girls breaking free from life’s negative influences.

Spring Shimmer has so many meanings and it feels right to elevate our quilt making to have thoughts about rising up, evolving, beauty and living a colorful life. I hope you make some spring quilts this year and enjoy the process. You can find the kit from Quilty Box or go to my shop to see more Spring Shimmer precuts. I have already donated to the Mariposa program and will continue to use a percent of profits from this line to help even more. My final addition here is a song my sister Les Sampou wrote and performs Hanging by a Thread. Check it out. All of us go through difficult times and it's important we help each other out to be seen and loved. Until next time....

Keep creating, it does the head, heart and hands good.
