\t\t\t\t\"\"<\/a>\nBen grew up watching his mom, Mary, make quilt for his bed and wall. He wanted to join his mom at Road 2017 to see what others were doing in the \u201cquilting universe.\u201d As Mary related, it is so \u201cdifferent\u201d to see all the art quilts \u201cin real life\u201d than in a picture. A quilter for over 30 years, Mary had been to Road six previous times, always to be inspired. Ben was \u201cblown away at the detail work and creativity\u201d he found during his first visit to the show.\"\"<\/a>\nKevin, Brenda, and Ashley (age 7) are from Simi Valley, California. Ashley had just received her first sewing machine the Christmas before Road 2017, a Bernina 330. She got interested in sewing from watching her mom sew. Ashley\u2019s first project was going to be a quilt, of course, picking out the fabric and pattern with her mom. It was Ashley and Kevin\u2019s first time to the show. Kevin found there were \u201clots of options for my girls.\u201d Brenda has been quilting for two years and is self-taught. She had bought an embroidery machine because she wanted to make pillowcases. She quickly learned that in order to make the pillowcases, she had to sew in a straight line. Quilting has helped her to sew straight lines!! \u00a0Brenda\u2019s first project was a king size quilt made of six-inch squares.\"\"<\/a>\nJenna came to Road 2017 to model for her girls, Emma and Abby, how to \u201chave fun and explore\u201d new ideas to \u201cmake stuff.\u201d The all loved looking at the quilts, fabrics, and different projects. Jenna has been sewing for five years. Her first quilt attempt was a baby blanket for Emma when she was born.\"\"<\/a>\nMarried 41 years, Barry and Brenda McCutcheon have attended Road to California 10 times together and Party Time eight of those ten years. They come down from Northern California for \u201clots of beautiful quilts, cool ideas, and lots of fun.\u201d\nWill your family be joining you for lots of inspiration, creativity, and fun<\/strong> at Road 2018?\n \n ]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
