New pattern!

3/20/2018

0 Comments

 
Just in time for spring, although it's not looking much like spring yet here, a Wild Iris greeting card pattern. This would be a great Mother's Day, sympathy, or just because card. I'm still working on good ways to add words to the front of cards, feel free to give me suggestions! 
This is available in both printed and download form, it may be a kit eventually too. And we already have a video tutorial to go with it as well, click the tutorials tab on the menu.
Happy spring, and happy sewing! I'll put some of our other springy designs in too!

Decorative stitches

3/17/2018

You know all those decorative stitches on your machine that you never use? That's one of the things I love about our designs, it gives you an excuse to use them! And if you don't have them, that's ok too, if you just use a narrow zig zag it still looks nice thanks to the amazing Starr Designs hand dyed fabrics. But it is fun to have a reason to use those stitches! If you have them, do you ever use them? Click the photo to see our kits and patterns:

Is it spring where you are? It's definitely not here yet! But that's ok, because March is my favorite month in Alaska. The sun is back, and we have plenty of snow for skiing! The lake I ski on is brighter than any beach when it's sunny out :-)
On the quilting front, I'm very excited to announce that we have created an On the Trail Creations VIP facebook group. I love to see what YOU are doing, and have more interaction, and a group seems to work better than other formats. 
SO....... hop on over and join our group! I will probably start using that more than my facebook page to post updates, tutorials, and ideas. And if YOU post a photo of something you have made from one of our patterns, kits, or tutorials, we will send you a free downloadable pattern of your choice:-) Click the photo below to go to the group; I'm looking forward to seeing you there!

    I am a homeschooling mom of three fun kids, who are now old enough that I have a little time to pursue my passion for sewing! After several years of making quilted cards and art quilts, I'm now designing kits and patterns.  Some of my designs have been in Keepsake Quilting and Art Quilting Studios magazine! I  teach classes online, and am starting to do more traveling and teaching. I also have many tutorials, including some on YouTube. I am blessed to live in Alaska where I am surrounded by the inspiration provided by the beauty of God's creation!

    I am also an independent distributor for Plexus supplements, since I credit them with enabling me to be healthy enough to do all these fun things! They target blood sugar and gut health, which are at the root of so many modern health issues. E-mail me for more info, or check out my website! I am as passionate about getting people healthy as I am about getting people creating :-)
