The chopsticks for Liliana's costume began with wooden skewers spray painted silver, then beaded using a hot glue gun and gold strands tied to create a flash of glam!! Her dress came form my mother on her trip to Thailand, Thank you mom. Liliana will have on black leggings and under shirt with gold ribbons crossing in the front and back tied down her arms and legs. The chopsticks will be two for each piggy bun in her hair. To finish the look she will have a large gold belt with a big bow in the back.

Quiting by Tiffany Barcus: ready - set - go!!

Let me start by telling some back ground of Unique; quilting by Tiffany Barcus.
I started long-arm quilting 5 years ago. I receved training at a small quilt shop Rock City Quilts in the small town of Valier, Montana. I dove in head first and never turned back. Creativity with the long-arm came easy to me. Although i have had my ups and downs in the atristic department. I hope to blog my older quilt photos with a breif story as to how they came to be quilted by me, my insperation for the quilting. Also some fun family highlights may find their way on. This blog is going to be the journy of my quilting, mother hood, author, ranch wife, and im sure i have more hats to try on soon.
