Marie Osmond?
#1
So when did Marie Osmond have anything to do with quilting? I saw her on a magazine or poster at our lqs the other day and was surprised. I knew she designed dolls so maybe she's into the creative thing. I have no idea what she's promoting - can anyone fill me in?

I know she had a Janome sewing machine and her own fabric line. Try this site: http://www.quiltingtreasures.com/content246.html

I think she has jumped on the 'gold' cart recently although she claims to have been 'sewing' all her life. She launched a sewing machine company 2 years ago and published a craft book last year. Before that just the dolls.
Quilting is an extremely lucrative business.

Very interesting. I grew up arguing with my cousin about which one of us was going to marry Donny, so she caught my attention. Thanks for the info.

I read an article and saw pictures of her sewing between rehearsals from when she was younger. Apparently it was something she did with her mother to help keep her grounded. I thought that was pretty cool. =)

Marie Osmond has been quilting for quite some time I think? I seem to remember reading an interview about her and there were pictures of her and the quilts she makes, oh several years ago now, also about how she used to make her own clothe too. As someone else commented earlier, she has always sewn.
Given the religion she grew up in, Marie would likely have been taught all the basics

Thanks, that's a free pattern too. I have made many of the baskets. Go to my blog for the links and some more pictures if you want. PiecefulDays.SquareSpace.com (look under old posts, patchwork baskets)
Here are two of my favorites.
