Get Creative with Creativebug!
In the Double Wedding Ring Quilt class, quilter Tara Faughnan, known for her vibrant and harmonious use of color, shares her technique for hand-piecing a double wedding ring quilt block (shown above). Tara begins by showing how to create your own arc templates that utilize small scraps of fabric. She goes on to teach hand-sewing techniques for piecing and shares loads of information along the way about how colors interact. See how this centuries-old block pattern comes together to create a colorful quilt top with a fresh, modern twist. There are hundreds of classes on creativebug on sewing, quilting, papercraft, drawing, painting, and more!

New Bestseller: The Splendid and the Vile by Erik Larson
"The author of The Devil in the White City delivers a fresh and compelling portrait of Winston Churchill and London during the Blitz. The Splendid and the Vile takes readers out of today's political dysfunction and back to a time of true leadership, when-in the face of unrelenting horror-Churchill's eloquence, courage, and perseverance bound a country, and a family, together." — from the publisher.
