Once that reading was done, I looked at the quilt. The colors chosen has a wonderful vibe and blend of classic and modern. Your quilting brought it the rest of the way to life. I see your postings on the Bernina.io forum and appreciate the insight you give. Learning is an addiction for me. Just purchased the 790+ and still trying to get up to speed. The Bernina forum is very helpful.

That bag pattern from Vogue ...Great post Rebecca! <br /><br />That bag pattern from Vogue is really interesting - I've never seen anything like it. But it wouldn't have been discontinued because of a law suit. Fashions and patterns can't actually be copyrighted. That's why fast fashion can knock off designs within weeks. Fashion houses can only copyright their logos or brands. Some argue that this encourages innovation in the art form ... I have a nerdy interest in intellectual property law and art/quilting. :) trudys_personhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11764674203434410754noreply@blogger.com
