Here is some of the fun we have had with our latest ‘Art to Applique’ designs.
We used Riley Blake Designs Confetti Cotton basics with Costume Makers Ball, to achieve the perfect blend for these projects.

Hello and a Happy New Year to all of YOU!
I’m running slightly behind already following so much holiday activity and art deadlines in January but,
I still thought there might be time for some fabric fun!?!!
How about another Valentine Post Card Exchange?
I really enjoyed seeing your amazing creativity from the first one, which you can see on Pinterest.
It’s a small project so you can stitch up quick and embellish (or not) any way you like, no challenge this time
however,
I do have Riley Blake Designs Paperdoll fabric panels and fat quarters to GIVEAWAY!!
•

How does a random drawing of the participants sound?
The winner will be drawn from delivered post cards.
All you have to do is sign up by sending me an email with your name and the address where you wish to receive your card.
I’ll match everyone to a partner and send you back the info.
• Email to janet@greatjoystudio.com

Hello!
Once again we were off to Houston last week in October with our new fabric collection,
Costume Makers Ball
presented at Fall Quilt Market by
Riley Blake Designs.
Just in case you didn’t catch this on IG or FB I decided to share a few photos and info.
•
•
The collection is for Halloween, twenty-nineteen and delivers to shops in April.
These fabrics are available to the trade (shops) now so please, check with you local shops to make sure they’ll have in the Spring.
It’s a very fun group to work with and I’m thinking you will agree!
As you can see above, we’ve created some great projects for this line and they’ll become available with the fabric release.
You may also notice that we’ve dressed our Makers Guide She Who Sews girls up too and will be offering these Halloween appliqué add on’s as downloadables.
•
Oh yes, and we won a prize!
Two actually!!
One to Riley Blake Designs for Best Multiple Booth award.
And we received the Most Creative Booth award.
FUN right!?!!
•
And for a little extra touch, our live action model dressed as the main panel was in the booth on Saturday. A photo with her offered visitors a chance at some Paperdoll fat quarter bundles in a daily giveaway throughout the show.
•
To top it off, we enjoyed special guest, Jenny Doan from Missouri Star Quilting! Yay
It was all, quite a Treat.
🙂
