Life just gets in the way of posting sometimes. I do hope you are following me on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest for updates on my latest products and goings on.<br />
<br />
I just wanted to pop in and let you know that I have a new website in the works for just hand dyes. So if you would like updates on the upcoming website and be one of the first to know when we launch, jump over to <a href="https://handdyesbyjules.com/" target="_blank">www.handdyesbyjules.com </a>and sign up for announcements.<br />
<br />
Have a wonderful day. Stay creative and live in color!!!<br />

<br />
Sorry, I haven't posted in a while. Life gets busy and crazy and I just run out of steam.<br />
<br />
Today I updated the<a href="https://julesrushing.blogspot.com/p/calendar-of-classes-and-workshops.html" target="_blank"> Fall Dye Workshop Schedule</a>. Please contact me if you would like to come to a workshop or rent the Dye Studio. If the day you want to rent the Dye Studio is scheduled for a class, contact me and if no one has signed up for a class, the Dye Studio is yours! I'm easy on scheduling.<br />
<br />
I am starting to limit the number of people in a class. It seems we can get more done with a smaller group and it is less stress on everyone. UNLESS, you are one of the groups that has rented the studio before and you are comfortable working around each other.<br />
<br />
FYI, for the locals. I will be vending at <a href="https://www.tmumc.org/blog/posts/fom" target="_blank">Fall on the Mound</a> at Trietsch Memorial UMC in Flower Mound on September 22, 2018. My booth will be in the Family Life Center, against the windows facing Marcus High School. Come see me! I will have art quilts, hand dyed clothing, quilted journal covers, aprons, hand dyed make-up bags, pillows and much more!<br />

Yesterday I had another great day teaching at <a href="http://www.mustlovefabric.com/" target="_blank">Must Love Fabric</a> in Grapevine. My ladies learned my favorite piecing process, Wave Piecing. Yes, this is the method I used on my quilt “Prism Refraction” that won an Honorable Mention at the <a href="http://www.quiltersguildofdallas.org/" target="_blank">Dallas Quilt Show</a> this year. I had 11 ladies, some I new already; the others are now new friends.<o:p></o:p></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Cambria; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
We spent the day getting past needing a straight edge and being able to cut with a flow. This method is so freeing and you are able to channel your “Inner Improv”.<o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Today was one of the best days in the Studio. My Sadie girl came over and we started on a new quilt for her bed. This is Sadie’s second quilt, but the first one this large. I was amazed at how well she did today. Picking out her colors, staying in the same value range, and then piecing her strips. </span></div>

First, I have to apologize to Prince Harry and Princess Meghan, I had to DVR your big day. I'm watching as I make this post. I can't wait to see her dress.<br />
<br />
Today I had 11 of my fabulous <a href="http://www.saqa.com/" target="_blank">SAQA</a> NTX friends over for a "Dye Day". The weather was perfect, warm with a nice breeze, so it wasn't stifling hot or a wind blowing us away.<br />
<br />
Just take a peek at the fun we were having today.<br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Since I sold out of Long Waterfall Vests at the Dallas Quilt Show, I ordered more and they are all dyed and ready for you! Sizes Small to 2 XL are now in the <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/StudioJulesArt" target="_blank">Etsy</a> shop for you! New fabrics will be loaded in <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/StudioJulesArt" target="_blank">Studio Jules Art</a> in Etsy tomorrow.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I've been working hard rearranging some of my studio space since the Dallas Quilt Show. I need to quit using the kitchen as my office and make the back room my office. So furniture is being given away to family, furniture is being moved and a new desk is in the thought process. I think the desk is going to be a DIY project. When all is said and done, there will be pictures. Right now it is an ugly mess.</span><br />

Well, I have to say, I am still shocked. Last night at the <a href="https://www.dallasfiberartists.org/" target="_blank">Dallas Area Fiber Artists</a> Annual Show closing reception, <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/551033013/improv-modern-abstract-wall-quilt?ref=shop_home_active_18" target="_blank">Needing Direction</a> was awarded <b>Best in Show</b>. I'm am pleased and can't believe it. There were so many beautiful and deserving pieces in the show. I know the decisions for all the awards and judging process must have been difficult.<br />
<br />
The reception was wonderful. I just love getting to socialize with my fellow artists and catch-up on the latest news with them.<br />
<br />
Next year the annual show will be just as wonderful and exciting, stay tuned for details. Oh, I'm going to Co-Chair the annual show next year with my friend Lu Peters. So much fun!<br />

Time is counting down for the <a href="http://www.quiltersguildofdallas.org/quilters-guild-of-dallas-show" target="_blank">Dallas Quilt Show</a> at Market Hall and I'm still dyeing fabric, finishing a quilt, making flyers, organizing my inventory and oh yes, coming down with Bronchitis. Luckily, I ran to the Dr. and got a steroid shot and meds before it went too far and I'm on the mend. Several days in bed didn't help my stress level, but hey, what happens happens and what gets done, gets done. Right?<br />
<br />
I finally finished quilting one of my quilts for the <a href="http://www.quiltersguildofdallas.org/quilters-guild-of-dallas-show" target="_blank">Dallas Quilt Show</a> yesterday. Tomorrow I will get it trimmed up and put the facing, sleeve and label on it. (Today I get to go celebrate grandkids with a birthday party! Cake!!!!)<br />
<br />
So, come to Dallas, March 9-11, 2018, and see the <a href="http://www.quiltersguildofdallas.org/quilters-guild-of-dallas-show" target="_blank">Dallas Quilt Show</a> at Market Hall. I promise you will love the show and come by my booth, say "Hello", shop for fabric, clothes and notions and sign up for a dye class!<br />
<br />
Check out the <a href="https://julesrushing.blogspot.com/p/calendar-of-classes-and-workshops.html" target="_blank">Calendar of Classes and Workshops</a> page for 2018 Dye Workshop dates. Fun times in the Dye Studio!<br />
<br />
Quilting Classes TBD! Stay tuned.<br />
<br />
Happy Creating!<br />

Today, I'm washing all the PDF (yes, I wash Prepared for Dyeing Fabric) and sorting it into size sections. Most of the fabric will be for ice dyeing, but one bolt is designated for Shibori dyeing. And yes, the piles are labeled and I just pray, no one comes in and messes them up.</div>

Because I know there are probably still starches and other things in the fabric, plus I don't like that crease down the middle. The crease doesn't come out with just a rinse and dry, it has to be washed out. </div>

Do you schedule your creative time each week? Each day? Each month?<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Do you have things on your calendar that you routinely do every week? This is what I try to do. I have days that I have dyeing fabric and quilting scheduled on my calendar and <i>try</i> and I mean <i>try</i> not to book anything else on those days and times. Some days I can't get around it and have to schedule a doctor's appointment or the washer repair dude, but I <i>try</i> my best to keep my schedule. Otherwise, I may not get anything done.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So, tell me, let's have a discussion about how you manage your creative time.</div>

Are you getting ready for the Super Bowl? Or is the Puppy Bowl more your speed? I turned on the dog shows for my little guy, but Oreo wasn't interested. So he is cuddled up on the bed with me while I work.<br />

<br />
Personally, I've been out in the Dye Studio and put fabric and dyed vests into wash and put more on to dye. Now that this task is complete, I'm working on listening to some podcasts for marketing strategies.<br />
<br />
So, tell me, what is on your schedule today?<br />
<br />
Creatively,<br />

quilt or project to a show? Are you learning new techniques? I want to hear, I
want to learn and I want us to join in conversation.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

you designing a new project? Are you stuck? Are you getting ready to submit a
quilt or project to a show? Are you learning new techniques? I want to hear, I
want to learn and I want us to join in conversation.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

quilt or project to a show? Are you learning new techniques? I want to hear, I
want to learn and I want us to join in conversation.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "georgia"; font-size: 12.0pt;">For 2018 I want to start something new. Let's
have a daily conversation about what is feeding our creative time. Are you
working on a project with a deadline? Are you cleaning your creative space? Are
you designing a new project? Are you stuck? Are you getting ready to submit a
quilt or project to a show? Are you learning new techniques? I want to hear, I
want to learn and I want us to join in conversation.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "georgia";">For 2018 I want to start something new. Let's have a
daily conversation about what is feeding our creative time. Are you
working on a project with a deadline? Are you cleaning your creative space? Are
you designing a new project? Are you stuck? Are you getting ready to submit a
quilt or project to a show? Are you learning new techniques? I want to hear, I
want to learn and I want us to join in conversation.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

page. Let's keep the conversation and networking active.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Are you learning new techniques? I want to hear, I want to learn and I want us to join in conversation.</span></div>

<br />
I've been busy in the studio with dyeing new fabric and pearl cotton. I've added several things to the <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/StudioJulesArt" target="_blank">Etsy Shop</a>. I've also been busy with Christmas presents. So many of my grandkids love homemade items, that it is fun to make them for them. But I'm not showing you what they are, because one or two of them may be snooping. 😁<br />

Piecing was fun because I love this wave piecing process. I'm addicted to it and can't wait to do more of it and maybe even teach a few classes.<br />
<br />
The quilting of this quilt, well, that is another story. I wanted to hurry and get it done so I could enter it in a show. So I went to the long arm studio and quilted it. I hated what I did. I'm not a seasoned long armer and my lines just didn't turn out the way I wanted them.<br />
<br />
So home I went and had a lot and I mean a lot of quality time with my seam ripper. I took out the entire quilt and started over on my Bernina. It took a couple of days of quality time with my walking foot, but I got it done and I am very please with the precision I was able to quilt.<br />
<br />
Needless to say, I didn't make the show entry deadline. But there are others coming up!<br />

I even ordered the book "Walk: Master Machine Quilting with Your Walking Foot" by <a href="http://www.jacquiegering.com/" target="_blank">Jacquie Gering</a>, to help me with inspiration and new designs. Can't wait for it to get here the end of the week.<br />

I decided to start carrying a few sewing notions and patterns in my Etsy shop. Needles, patterns and a few other notions.<br />
<br />
I love these <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/563891869/self-threading-needles-clover-needles?ref=shop_home_active_3" target="_blank">Self Threading</a> needles by Clover. Most quilters do too.<br />

In previous years I added beading to my quilts and used these beading needles. I love them. They are long and slender and I can use them with the tiniest of beads.</div>

Today I'm adding <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/550226406/sew-straight-by-quilt-in-a-day-accurate?ref=shop_home_active_1" target="_blank">Sew Straight</a> by<a href="https://www.quiltinaday.com/" target="_blank"> Quilt in a Day</a> - Eleanor Burns. This tool is wonderful for when we are having problems keeping your 1/4" seam and I use it when sewing bias strips together and angled blocks. I have been able to sew half square triangles without marking the fabric using this tool. All my quilting students have bought this product and have commented on how much it has helped them.<br />

I'm also adding some patterns by Zen Chic, by <a href="https://storefront.unitednotions.com/storefrontCommerce/" target="_blank">Moda</a> and a few others.

Enjoy the Fall weather my quilting friends. The weather in North Texas keeps teasing us, some day it may get cool and stay cool. Perfect quilting weather and perfect weather to cuddle up with a quilt.</div>
