the <i>ReSew</i> blog tour, day three: meet Amy, and her very creative side


Welcome to day three of the


INCREDIBLE 


001RESEW1


BLOG TOUR!



If you are a quilter--or if you've ever wanted to be--you will love the view over at:


Amys-Creative-Side-large


I think I'd like to dub the woman behind Amy's Creative Side with a new name--Amy-zing! Her blog shot into much-deserved fame from the get-go; she has her own beautiful quilt book out, called Modern Basics; and she and a friend have singlehandedly created the Sewing Summit, a sewing and blogging conference for the modern sewist, to be held this October in Salt Lake City. Whew! (When I think about the Sewing Summit I get so excited I almost pee my pants. Seriously.)


Head on over to Amy's place to get her take on ReSew, see some interior shots from the book, and enter to win a free copy of the book too! And while you're there, don't miss the chance to check out this prolific quilt designer's work. She is a powerhouse of ideas for gorgeous, streamlined, modern style. I wanna drape my house with her quilts, inside and out. My grass and trees, too.

the <i>ReSew</i> blog tour begins today!

I am so happy to announce that for the next two weeks, my new book ReSew will be touring the blogosphere, making stops at today's coolest, hippest, and most creative sewing and crafting blogs on the web, hands down!


Let me introduce you to the first of these inspiring blogs--every day, a different blog will be dishing a bit about ReSew AND giving away a copy of the book, too.


MONDAY, FEBRUARY 21ST: SEW, MAMA, SEW!

Daily posts, monthly themes, and dizzying amounts of inspiration are to be had for anyone who loves to sew, sew, sew. Plus, they double as a fabric shop! Along with a giveaway of ReSew, Sew, Mama, Sew! is sharing a project directly from the book--my "Elephant Cuddle Cushion"--as part of their themed pillow month.
