SHIMMER Blog Hop NOW! April 1- 21, 2014

4/1/2014

Welcome to the SHIMMER BLOG HOP. Being a California convert myself, it was appropriate that a west coast group kicks off the SHIMMER BLOG HOP. For the second week, starting on April 7 we have - Amanda Jean Nyberg- Crazy Mom Quilts, April 8- Lee Heinrich- Freshly Pieced April 9- Cheryl Arkinson- Naptime Quilter April 10- Christina Cameli- A Few Scraps April 11- Elizabeth Hartman- Oh Fransson April 12- Faith Jones-Fresh Lemon Quilts April 13- Gemma Jackson- Pretty Bobbins We have a stellar list of 20 bloggers total (complete list below ), each with a SHIMMER prize to give away to their peeps. I hope you will follow along as I will be giving away a grand prize of the entire line of FQ SHIMMER on April 21!

A little background on the talent:
Janice Ryan and Julie Herman are the darlings of the "Let's get it done!" Marketing Department at Robert Kaufman Co (RKC). Last Fall, I went GA-GA over the noodlehead cargo bag Janice made and knew in an instant I wanted to work with her. The cargo bag in the SHIMMER lookbook is her work and I think a tiny war may ensue about who's keeping it! Check her out April 2nd.

Julie Herman really doesn't need an introduction because she quite literally and rightfully so, is a STAR! Everyone knows her!! She is getting married soon and people are making blocks for their huppah quilt..I think she may need to build a 3 story huppah just to accommodate that quilt! Can't wait to see what she's whipped up for us this Friday, April 4th. This woman is prolific!!

Alissa Haight Carlton, one of the founders of Modern Quilt Guild, is another icon who has helped transform our industry. I was raising my kids (oblivious of the design/quilt world for a chunk of time) while she was creating the modern movement and I have three letters for her: W-O-W! I am so honored that she is part of this introduction of SHIMMER. Check out her blog April 3rd.

Natalie Barnes was one of my first Instagram friends. It's the best when you make a great connection on IG and daily pics shared add up quickly. Natalie creates patterns, sells fabric and books on line. She is a creative Cali Girl and I can't wait to see her "Cali farmer's market tote" Saturday April 5!!

Wrapping up the first week is my beloved peeps at C&T Publishing and Stash Books. Not sure if you know this, but it's a family affair. My mother and father-in-law started C&T 35 years ago. My husband, Todd Hensley and his brother Tony and their amazing team continue the tradition of creating the best how-to quilt and sewing books in the world!! Sunday's post includes a wonderful story!

Finally a big thanks to Teresa Coates at Robert Kaufman for helping me launch my first blog hop and all the people who said YES! I am looking forward to what they create and share with us.

How exciting. Congratulations on your first blog hop. You have an amazing group of bloggers lined up to help you that's for sure. I had to laugh at the picture of Julie's 3 story high quilt. I thought pretty much the same thing when I saw her post asking for blocks. LOL I actually thought she will have enough blocks to make what she intends to use them for as well as enough left to make a quilt for both the mother's and then some.

Love your fabric and the name is perfect.

4/1/2014 11:29:21 am

OMG! I have Julie's "Skip the Borders" book"....and made one borderless quilt out of a Fat Q I found at a local quilt show in 2013 as my focus fabric. It gets better! That Fat Q is from Jennifer's "Native Plains"Anniversary 1989-1999 collection. Still addicted to that collection!

Love how the projects look when finished. Does this fabric keep its shine after washings? crystalbluern at onlineok dot com

jennifer sampou

4/21/2014 09:06:37 am

Yes, the fabric keeps it sheen. I prefer pre washing before making garments as it gets a nice hand and relaxes the look.

4/2/2014 10:09:29 am

I am wanting to do pillows for my sofa...plain old brown sofa. These colors and the shine would really pop. I am new and have been doing small projects this year. I did make a real quilt king size- for my daughter's wedding last year though. crystalbluern at onlineok dot com

Sarah M

4/2/2014 10:27:22 am

Came to this page via the Better Off Thread blog and the lovely Road to Tennessee quilt made with the Shimmer fabrics.
The tones, textures, and shine of this collection are great.
Not sure if I qualify for the contest since I don't live in the US, but I'd love to win these fat quarters.

4/21/2014 09:08:08 am

all are entered to win!! Sent a package to Australian last month and the Canada the month before Sarah M!!

4/2/2014 11:14:03 am

Road to Tennessee is stunning in the Shimmer Collection. it's the texture that give it luster. Great job on the 560 plus 2" and 3" blocks...it's right on!

Lee

4/2/2014 11:16:09 am

I love your new line of fabric!! The Road to Tennessee quilt is awesome!!!

4/2/2014 11:27:52 am

Janice your cargo bag is drool worthy indeed. I'm inspired to add a button from apiece of turquoise acquired from a closed mine in Arizona.
The Look Book has become my new BFF. Wash dress is so fitted and I'd love to see it adorn me in Earth Snakeskin:)
Cant wait for the next FREE project Friday!

Sarah

I've just seen Janice from Better Off Thread's Shimmer quilt & it is truly one of the most beautiful quilts that I've seen. So much so that this has just leaped to the top of my must-make quilts list. I'm really looking forward to the rest of the projects on the blog hop - Janice has really set the the bar high though!

Diane B

4/4/2014 10:41:33 am

Julie The Daybreak quilt is absolutely stunning! It has that Au Natural look with just the right sparkle. And no Y seams is a perk for that pattern..thank you for making it seamingly easy that a way. No Y's..I love it:) The more I look at the Shimmer collection the more of it I want in FQs and Charm packs. Already love the sunburst and snakeskin and am falling for the hand drawn lines. I love charm packs for exploding blocks, ease of stitching together. I bought your book "Skip the borders" last Fall at a local quilt shop. When I win the charm pack and FQs I will make the "Brick Wall" quilt since it incorporates 5" pieces. Toss in either Celestial or Honeydew for the solid rows of bricks. Best of luck w/the Huppah.

4/6/2014 02:24:35 am

Hey the Look Book is cool. I love the duffle bag, the pillows and the quilts. I think the pillows would dress up any bed with one of the quilts made from the Shimmer Line.

This is a really cool neutral line of fabrics with some oomph.

This is my first blog hop and I saw it today on crazymomquilts.com The fabric collection is very sophisticated and I could see making a beautiful bed quilt for my master bedroom. I just painted a wall in my apartment the color of "wet pavement," so I'm in the mood for shimmer.

4/21/2014 09:31:56 am

I have loved the blog hop and now following some of them because of it. Thank you - hope to win the FQ bundle to see the whole line and figure out all the yummy ways to use this line. Keep at it and kudos to you and Robert Kaufman for this stunning way to showcase Shimmer!
