Almost as Good as Being There!

Did you miss Quilt Con in February?

Where you there and are now suffering a terrible case of post-con blues?

Don’t despair!

Whether you’re in Austin, Albuquerque or Adelaide, you can enjoy awesome QuiltCon lectures for free courtesy of one of my absolutely favorite resources for all things creative … Craftsy!

This awesome FREE series includes topics on everything from free-motion quilting to fabric design.

How cool is that? No, really, I mean it…how cool is that?!

Did I mention it’s free?! FREE!

That’s right, you have zero, nothing, NADA to lose! Go, enjoy!

***click me, I’m free!***

See the photos I took @ QuiltCon! This piece was one of my favorites at the show. 🙂

Were you at QuiltCon?

Five of my quilts were in the Babylock booth and I will give a free prize to every person that took a picture of one of them…just leave a link to your photo in comments and make sure to include your contact info!

Not sure which quilts were mine? How about a little hide and seek in my Craftsy shop! All five of the featured projects can be found there!

A Happy Mother’s Day

Yesterday was an exceedingly special day for me!

A Huge, HUGE thank you goes out to Honey Bee Quilt Store for hosting my first-ever Trunk Show. A very special thank you goes out to my friends that came by to help out and cheer me on, as well as the multitude of visitors that so kindly came by to share part of their day with me!

I can’t say enough good things about all the people I was lucky enough to get to visit with. In the photo above, you see me with blog reader Sarah (wearing an awesome Doctor Who tee!!), who came all the way from Houston! We had a lovely visit and it was wonderful to get to meet her face to face. Thanks for coming, Sarah!

If you came yesterday, THANK YOU. I was nervous and excited and it was a wonderful, wonderful day. Everyone I met was so kind about my work and it was lovely to get to share with so many new faces.

As a special thank you to my readers, helpers and yesterday’s visitors and for all the moms out there on this Mother’s Day, I offer you this sweet pair of free patterns.

Pecking Chick and Sitting Hen

both are 5″ paper pieced

Here they are together, with Sitting Hen increased to a 10″ block!

Both mother and baby can be found on my Free Pattern page or by clicking the links above.

Have a lovely day and thank you all for the gifts you have given me by being part of my life!

Trunk Show Tomorrow!

4 Replies

Hoo, boy, I have been uncharacteristically quiet this week!

The reason for this is simple, my beloved friends, tomorrow is my very first Trunk Show and I have been busy getting ready.

Trunk Show featuring Jennifer Ofenstein
Honey Bee Quilt Store
10am – Noon, Saturday May 12, 2012
9308 Anderson Mill Rd #300
Austin, TX 78729

What’s a Trunk Show, you say? Well, it’s a bit like a one-woman show.

This is your chance to see many of my Sewhooked projects in fabric! There will be oodles of Sewhooked patterns for sale, some of which are making their quilt store debut!

There will be Quiltmaker 100 Blocks, Vol. 5 on hand to buy (and I’ll sign my block, if you like!) as well as some fun freebies and a drawing for a wall hanging made by yours truly!

I really hope to see you there! If you’re a blog reader, please be sure to let me know. I love being able to put faces to names. 🙂
