<p>I was eagerly awaiting this issue of Quilter&#8217;s Connection magazine as I knew there was an article on Ruler quilting in it &#8211; written by my friend, Amy Kraan, who I met at <a href="http://www.langleyvacandsew.com/">Langley Vacuum and Sewing</a> some time back. She is a loyal Janome owner and has very graciously shared some of her ruler quilting expertise with me. When she brings things she has made to Show &amp; Tell at Langley Vacuum &amp; Sewing&#8217;s quarterly Janome Club,  we are all amazed at how beautiful her work is. <em>Stunning quilting.</em>  So we here at Janome Canada were very happy to suggest Amy offer her expertise to Quilter&#8217;s Connection magazine readers.  Thank you, Heather, for publishing this great Ruler Quilting information in this issue of your magazine.</p>
<p>SO &#8211; this is a shout out to Quilter&#8217;s Connection magazine as well as to Amy who is incredibly modest.  I obviously cannot share the article with you as that would be breaking copyright but you are more than welcome to visit <a href="http://quiltersconnection.ca/">Quilter&#8217;s Connection  website </a>(noted on the bottom right corner of the cover pic above). Perhaps you would like to subscribe to the mag like I do and have a nice surprize in your mailbox every few months?</p>
<p>Also in this magazine is a Mystery Table runner project designed by Janet Barker to follow along with and make to celebrate Canada&#8217;s 150th birthday. <strong>Janome Canada</strong> donated the set of <em>Tamara Kate</em> (typo in the mag) sewing luggage featured on page 19 of this issue of Quilter&#8217;s Connection with it&#8217;s so very cute little embroidered bicycle on each of the 3 pieces that is up for grabs in this contest. We featured<a href="https://janomelife.wordpress.com/2016/12/20/is-santa-bringing-you-one-of-these-for-christmas/"> this sewing luggage in a recent post.</a></p>
<p>Will you be rushing out to buy your Quilters Connection magazine? Or subscribing to make sure you don&#8217;t miss future issues?</p>
<h3 style="text-align:center;"><em>Aside from this issue of the above magazine, we have offered numerous posts on janomelife blog about Ruler Quilting. If you missed these or wish to review, just type <strong>ruler quilting</strong> in the search box and you will get a list of all the posts we have published on this topic. </em></h3>
