Make a Minky LUXE throw with me! My studio is teaming with @shannonfabrics to offer a live ZOOM class with a national Shannon Fabrics educator. You’ll finish the 1.5 hour class with a soft, dreamy LUXE throw. The class includes a kit with 2 yards of LUXE fabric! I am not exaggerating when I say I LOVE this fabric. I would sign up to be an ambassador for this company and you all know me; I don’t endorse anything without being all in! This stuff is amazingly soft. Sign up at th...e link below to take this class. We’ll get your kit together and send it well before the class date. Hope to see you December 5th at 6:00pm EST. Psst!! We’re also raffling a kit at the end of our live class. Woohoo! https://lightningbugsquiltstudio.com//shannon-cuddle-luxe/ # #shannonfabrics #shannonfabricsbrandambassador #shannonfabricseducator #shannonluxecuddle #sewwithme #sewingeducation

If you haven’t attempted a chenille rug, boy are you in for some fun! You need four panels of the same fabric, a layer of batting and backing fabric. Oh, don’t forget the chenille cutter. No, not a mandatory tool, but cuts your time in half. Can’t wait to try another one with some bright panels from our shop! How about some of those adorable #susybee panels we just got in!?! Try one! You’ll love it. Laura with #sewveryeasy has a great tutorial on #youtube #chenillerugs #olf...achenillecutter #kidsrugs #funwithfabric #quiltseason #sewveryeasy See more

Would you look at this happy face! A customer just sent this picture to me to tell me how happy this made her baby boy. To make a child smile...what a great feeling! https://lightningbugsquiltstudio.com

Some truth about website development ... The field is laden with crookedness. If a professional web developer ever says he can have your site designed and up and running in two to four weeks, RUN! Run Forest, RUNNNN!! Or expect to be taken to the cleaners. And by all means, expect to have to do exactly what you swore you wouldn’t: build your own daggum website. And that's what I did. Enough of that. It you get a chance, send some feedback on ease of use, intuitiveness, etc... I was under enormous pressure to build it fast, while homeschooling the kids and running the business. I am tweaking, but it is mine. Here's a blog post from my site.
