I hope you all had a good and restful holiday season, and are excited to start a new year! I don’t really do resolutions, but I do like to think about goals and plans, because nothing will get done without them! One of my goals for awhile has been to get better at making videos, but there have been lots of hurdles! I keep chipping away at them, but some things, like my slow internet, are hard to fix. (I did find one thing that bypasses it at least some of the time though, long story 😂) My new studio didn’t really have a space for a dedicated video set, so I was hoping to make do with my regular sewing area. I quickly realized that I had big issues with both lighting and sound. So, we did some drastic rearranging (we meaning my helpers 😂), and now I do have a set! If I’m doing more online teaching, it’s kind of important😅 The first video project I’m working on is a (free!) mini art quilt/greeting card workshop, hopefully coming soon! It goes well with my 100 Days of Quilted Cards project, and also with my classes. Even though Christmas is done, I decided to do a Christmas/winter theme for my first week of quilted cards. Below are most of the photos from the week. (All are on IG, FB, and my On the Trail Creations FB group!) Next week will be landscape style cards. Happy sewing! Beret Cards that have patterns: Northwoods Nisse Card Winter Trees Let it Snow Before, during, after! That's a lot of stuff needing new homes... 😅

Beret Nelson's On The Trail Creations Blog PageBeret NelsonI 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! Free mini art quilt workshop for new subscribers!
