Hello Spring!!!

The Irises are from my Faux Batik Panel Patterns.

 I love the thought of the earth waking up after a long winter sleep.  Each season has its own special beauty, but spring means flowers.  My favorite flower is the lilac. 

Missouri Spring, by Linda Bratten

 Not only does the smell awaken my senses, but the small little flowers have variations in color that seem to change as they open up. This reminds me that we are small parts of a larger picture, just like the lilac flower. As such we can use our influence for the good.

Just a reminder to the members of the Linda B Creative Facebook Group, you can still download my spring phone and computer wallpaper in the files section of the group!

Hoping that this spring will bring you an abundance of flowers to inspire your creativity!

The SMP Virtual Quilt Fest is this Week!

 

This week is Sewing Machines Plus (SMP) Virtual Quilt Fest.  This is the third year of SMP hosting the free event.  It is broadcasted live daily throughout the week, and you can watch the replay on their YouTube channel.  In addition to the great presentations, they are also giving away prizes to viewers!

This is also my third year as a presenter for this event.  I have been able to share a variety of Baby Lock machines and their features during the event.  This year I have two spots, in which I get to introduce viewers to the Baby Lock Allegro sewing machine that was released in August of 2022.

This is a sewing only machine, but don't let that fool you.  You can create a variety of items and use a variety of techniques with this machine.  

Be sure to check out my presentations on day 1, March 13th at 1:30pm, Pacific time and on Day 4, at 9am, Pacific time. 

On the first day, I introduced the machine, and the features quilters would love with piecing and applique.  On Thursday, day 4, I will focus on free motion and quilting techniques.

You can watch the live feed of the SMP Virtual Quilt Fest on their YouTube channel or on their Facebook page.

By the way, join me tonight, March 13, 2023, in my Linda Bratten Creations Facebook page at 7 pm Central, where I will be sharing how to create crazy patch blocks with the Allegro!

Off to prepare for my live!!
