Perhaps a better name would be Journal or News. I chose B.L.O.G.—who knew that “word” would become traditional? The good news is “Quilting” will always be universally recognized no matter what language we translate. We’ll still be searching for creative ways to express quilt art and new locations to shop for essentials. We desire inspirational instructors, exciting fabrics and especially quality THREADS—the glue! Our support network of quilters through satellite groups, guilds, and communities is vibrant (especially here, on Vancouver Island, BC). Join me as I share how-to articles on Threads and techniques, quilting events, profiles on fabric artists, natural things of beauty and  general interest to curious and resourceful stitchers! ...Cindy Scraba (Cinderella)

Texture Magic™ Revisited

Posted by cindy on Wednesday, April 14th, 2010

TEXTURE MAGIC™ and Glitter™ Thread combination could easily be a recipe for disaster; not when you use the glorious titanium-coated Topstitch needle. And when sewing with a decorative thread like Glitter™ be bold and lower your tension down to "1" to ensure happy stitching. I'd worked extensively with Texture Magic™ shrinking medium before this class; however, there's always more to learn from a pro. Here, I'm stitching a huge piece of Texture Magic™ for use in the Textured Tote Bag pattern. Our class instructor, Annie Unrein, is a prolific pattern designer and the gal you see in Superior's booth at shows representing TM. www.byannie.com
