More happiness arrived Tuesday in the form of the Fall issue of Modern Patchwork magazine. A hexagon pillow, designed by little 'ole me, was selected for publication! I couldn't be more excited about it! Gosh, you can even buy this magazine at Barnes and Noble, and JoAnn Fabrics!
While my piece isn't on the cover, you can see it in this online link. And, here's the page in the magazine... my pillow on a hot pink butterfly chair. I like it!
For my personal styled photos, I chose an aqua chair.
Hexagon Pillow, 15" X 15" |
The pillow is sewn together with a nice envelop back because I prefer to be able to remove the form to wash my piece.
I'll be teaching how to make my Hexagon Pillow soon! If you're in Central Florida, you can register for classes here, at the Lifelong Learning College. We'll be meeting three consecutive Monday afternoons beginning October 19.

Congrats again Linda! Never looked at the mag tho. I don't think it's in the shops in Australia.
ReplyDeleteI purchased an issue of "Modern Patchwork" last year after meeting a few women at a sewing retreat who had just had their work published - like you!
ReplyDeleteI'm new to hexies and wanting to try a bit of big stitch so your pillow looks like a great project for me. Congratulations!
How fun and exciting!! My Organic Pink Pickles was published in Modern Patchwork so I'm familiar with the magazine.
ReplyDeleteNice photo spread in the magazine! What fun. I've looked through an issue of Modern Patchwork, but have not purchased one as yet. I like the Big Stitch used with the hexagons.
ReplyDeleteHave never looked or purchased this magazine. Thanks for the chance to win it.

ReplyDeleteI almost bought this issue at Joanns the other day! I like the big stitch quilting!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on both of these Linda! You are so talented! Perfect timing on the hexies as I finally, finally sat down and tried them last week. I am hooked! So if I win, (ha!) would you autograph my copy???
ReplyDeleteI've only purchased the magazine once, as a stocking-stuffer gift for myself! I enjoyed it and I should subscribe. I love your project, I'd like to learn English paper-piecing, but haven't taken the time to do so yet.

I haven't bought many books or magazines as I have so many patterns that I want to try sitting on my computer - would like to peruse and then pay it forward once I am done to a local sewing group
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Linda! Your pillow is adorable. I've never bought or seen an issue of that particular magazine. I'll have to look for an issue when I return to the states. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteCongrats Linda! Yes, I have purchased the magazine in the past but have been unable to find this new one yet. I looked yesterday.
