So I’ve done this thing…write a book. Â It’s the life long dream come true via hard work and hours and hours of sewing. Â And I know that I’ve shared a bit about the book here. Â You probably know that it is about curved piecing and maybe have seen a sneak peak here or there. Â But I realized that I have not officially shown you all the projects IN the book. Â I’ve been waiting so long to share them with you all that I forgot that at some point I would actually be able to show you! lol
So today I’m kicking off a week long showing of all of the projects from my book, A Quilter’s Mixology. Â I’ll be sharing about 3 projects a day from the book. Â And each day there will be an opportunity to win a copy of the book and other fun prizes along the way…just to celebrate! Â I hope you’ll join me each day to see the quilts and hopefully be inspired to start sewing some curves.
I love all of my quilts. Â Truly I do. Â So it’s hard to know where to start. Â But since you’ve seen the book cover, I will go ahead and start there, with Orange Twist.
This quilt is my personal homage to Anna Maria Horner and her gorgeous fabrics.  Each print is a different design of hers spanning across multiple years and lines.  I used a Sizzix die cutter to help make quick work of cutting the charms I used.  As a block based quilt, this can  be made as small or as large as you would like.  But I will warn you that this is some heavy work…each block is a curved block in this quilt.  But you can’t beat how timeless it is.
I'm looking forward to see all your quilts from the book. So far I love Paint Drips 🙂
Congrats on your book. Paint Drips Quilt looks fabulous. Great giveaway, thanks.
Congrats Angela! I've been looking forward to your book release. Paint Drips is to die for. xxxx

The book looks great and those green wonder clips, oh my, I think they would be life changing! Thanks

Congrats on the new book. Thanks for a chance to win.
The book looks like it has some great projects. I'm just getting over my fear of curved piecing and would love to win a book!
From the Third Coast, many congratulations to you , Angela. So very happy for you and this outstanding accomplishment. I have folliwed you on Instagram. Will come back to post after sharing. You have really been busy! Great job.
your book looks very inspiring and the quilts you have shown here have some very innovative use of curves. I have pinned you on pinterest. Thank you.
I love the idea of paint drips…….so much better than melting wax crayons on a canvas ( have you done that with the children??? its unbelievably messy)
How exciting! Congrats on your book, it looks great. Those 'fans' are really nice, would look good in Asian prints. And the paint drips are fun! Thanks for sharing with us.
The quilts you have shown look great Angela! I love the paint drips. I have had something similar sketched out for ages but never made it! I think it's just a fun idea. The quilting looks fantastic too. Enjoy!
Congrats on the book. I usually stay away from curved piecing, but your design really tempt me.
I have been excited about your book since your post with the aqua helix quilt top. Looking forward the rest of the week.

Congratulations on getting published! It must've been loads of work. Personally I am a bit scared of curves – I want someone to tell me they are like zippers: not so bad once you try / practice.
This book was already waiting in a cart somewhere online. Would love to have it. I'm happy this book is full of hard work design !
The Paint Drips design is so clever! Love it. Thanks for the great giveaway.

My dad was a house painter!!!! In the painting lingo a "drip" or other "mistake" is called a holiday .
I learned that as a young girl and it sounded fun/interesting to me so when I either win or buy your book paint drps that will be the first project I make and I'll name mine with the word holiday in some way
Amazing looking projects. I feel like they are beyond my skill level, but you never know until you try, and you can't get better without practice.
