Let it Shine was published in Quilter's World Winter 2026 Issue.
Let It Shine
Let It Shine was designed in EQ8 and made with the Island Batik collection Hello Sunshine.
It is a spectacular collection and I am absolutely in love with it. The beautiful fabrics do all the work and I get all the credit.
Let it Shine finished at 60" by 84".

Found it!
Picture & Quilt
But there were two extra surprises in there. The magazine also included patterns from Leah Malasky and Solomae Stoycoff, fellow Island Batik ambassadors.
The ambassador program was discontinued in 2026 and I am not sure if there is going to be one in 2027. I miss the dose of fire under my behind that caused the spark of creativity resulting in gorgeous new patterns/projects. Alas!
So when I spot my fellow ambassadors in the blogland, in magazines and elsewhere, I relive the joys of our fellowship.
In other news, I am basting a huge, very scrappy, pink flimsy that will be the next quilt and blogpost.
F*** the Blues
