Hello Everyone,
Sunday, December 29th is the premier of my episode #3601 on The Quilt Show with Alex Anderson and Ricky Tims. You can watch it for free HERE! You can sign up for a trial membership and you have a week to view everything The Quilt Show has to offer. There's a lot to see and so many opportunities to learn!
The first part of the show started off upstairs in a beautifully restored mission church located in the heart of Denver, Colorado.
We were just chit chatting before the cameras were turned on.
Then we moved downstairs for the rest of the filming.
I was going over Patchwork Math with Ricky. My Patchwork Math book is available for sale in my Etsy shop HERE.
I discussed the starch method of applique in addition to raw edge applique with Alex. All of my monthly tutorials for Laurel Ridge will be available to Star Members for all of 2025!
The filming took place on a Wednesday. The night before the filming, my left leg doubled in size and turned very red. I was having an extremely difficult time walking and was in a great deal of pain. As soon as the filming was finished, Mr. Joe packed me up and immediately drove me to the hospital where I was admitted and in surgery to remove a 12" blood clot in my left leg.
This picture was taken on Saturday when I was released from the hospital. We drove back to the church so I could pick up all of my quilts and material that I used during the filming before we headed for our 3-day road trip back to California.
Filming for The Quilt Show was a very positive experience even with the hospital visit. I was so lucky that everything turned out in my favor, and I was in the right place at the right time at a teaching hospital with nine vascular surgeons taking extremely good care of me.
Enjoy watching the show. I know I will be tuning in to see it and I'll be cringing when I say something questionable! You just never know what I'm going to say next!
This is the trailer for the show. You can also watch the next YouTube video from Barbara Black who goes into great detail with information about the 2025 BOM.
Soon,
Lynn
Looks like you had a wonderful time. Can't wait to watch your episode! I"m sure I'm not the only one to gasp when hearing you kept filming while your leg was growing and changing. You are one tough cookie!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you're on the mend. The BOM quilt looks amazing!
Well Wishes!
It's so good to hear from you Lea Anne! I knew the whole crew was assembled for the filming and I just powered through. I'm so glad I didn't do a face plant on the set!
DeleteLooking forward to watch the episode. Thx for reminding us!!! Look forward to seeing you soon😃
ReplyDeleteSee you soon whoever you are!
DeleteLooking forward to watching the episode. Glad everything turned out so good.
ReplyDeleteI'm doing very well now. Thank you for commenting.
DeleteWhat an adventure you have had; glad to hear you're on the mend. "The show must go on" . . . can't wait to watch the episode.
ReplyDeleteYes, the show went on without a hitch.....the only hitch was in my giddyup!
DeleteOh sweetie that is a good size clot! I',m glad you are recovering though.
ReplyDeleteIt's so good to hear from you, Sharon. Yes, it was a big clot which caused me a lot of trouble! It's gone now and I'm doing well. I just don't sit for very long anymore.
DeleteWhew! That was scary! Glad you were at the right place at the right time. The show was Fantabulistic and your video instructions are very helpful. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your comment, Nadine. I'm so glad the video instructions are helpful. Yes, I was very lucky.
Delete.I really enjoyed watching your show. It was reason i re signed up for the quilt show. Glad you are all better
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed your episode on the Quilt Show. I’m a member and am planning on making the BOM you designed for them. I have an AccuQuilt and hate cutting out so I’m hoping to translate your Laurel Canyon Quilt into what will work for me.
ReplyDeleteI loved how you said do your Appliqué the way that works for you. I’m realizing while working on Big Woods by Sarah Fiehlke that hand sewing still isn’t my thing. I’ll definitely do the machine version of appliqué.
The ribbon border is another element I want to try.
Thank you.
I'm so glad you enjoyed the episode, Leah. I've been asked about using an AccuQuilt to cut out the quilt. I don't own one and wouldn't know how to use one. I find applique very relaxing, but I do realize I might be in the minority. Machine applique will be fine for this quilt. Also, Barbara Black is going to show some non-applique blocks to fill the space.
