One thing led to another, and he began digitizing - which is the creation of designs to be machine embroidered. Stephen went on to found Anita Goodesign in 2004.</span><div><br /></div><div><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">More than fifteen years later, Anita Goodesign is the industry leader with embroidery designs and education. We employ a team of in-house artists, digitizers, graphic designers, embroiderers, and more! We host virtual and in-person events across the country, and take pride in teaching customers how to create our beautiful designs and works of art through quilting and embroidery. Whether it’s baby-themed, quilting, petlovers, traditional hand embroidery style, or in the hoop projects; Anita Goodesign always strives to have something for everyone.</span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcppQ_QslBaYdmpDqmRP8H3z0hS41AsA-edYOd2tys2NyLUFclTymyld0-2K6MT2rIFaNO8sQr9_2BPV1YSDWI5pnjS0YbeBROM2TFBsixfT1QRGw6enom8ABohPxV8DkeG_f4QRG5ynV4/s2048/Anita+Goodesign+-+Balfour-11.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1367" data-original-width="2048" height="428" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcppQ_QslBaYdmpDqmRP8H3z0hS41AsA-edYOd2tys2NyLUFclTymyld0-2K6MT2rIFaNO8sQr9_2BPV1YSDWI5pnjS0YbeBROM2TFBsixfT1QRGw6enom8ABohPxV8DkeG_f4QRG5ynV4/w640-h428/Anita+Goodesign+-+Balfour-11.jpg" width="640" /></a></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">The creation of each design involves multiple teams within the building, and we all work together on a daily basis. Every collection starts with original artwork carefully created by our team of artists. Once the art is approved, the design moves to the digitizing team who creates a digital file in a format for embroidery machines. All of our digitizing is done by hand, to make sure that each stitch is created with purpose and precision. Next, the design moves to our creative team where fabrics and threads are selected and the design gets stitched out and tested for quality and ease of use. After that, it moves to the graphics department who scans and photographs each design in detail. Tutorials are then created in house to ensure customers can easily use everything we design. After final reviews, the process is complete and the collection is<br />ready to go!</span><p></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /></span><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRHlkNPgtDzWgFjqfo3JcwRJnvOqjR_tqebVl0mGn6K5lOZfg772JfXBCFNLbVDz5pG93_pm_1f_bIs3iS-bdkL8EElQw80hRXU2PvnBUHbFCAiZ_lb_sSuO6XvY9iuz7LQh2s8SmvNv10/s2048/20210820_114639.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRHlkNPgtDzWgFjqfo3JcwRJnvOqjR_tqebVl0mGn6K5lOZfg772JfXBCFNLbVDz5pG93_pm_1f_bIs3iS-bdkL8EElQw80hRXU2PvnBUHbFCAiZ_lb_sSuO6XvY9iuz7LQh2s8SmvNv10/w640-h480/20210820_114639.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Hopes & Dreams prize donation from Anita Goodesign - 12 month magazine subscription. </td></tr></tbody></table></p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">Even though our product and education output is large, we are still considered a family-owned small business, and take great pride in our craft.

focus. Our fabrics are 100% printed in our facility in the <b>USA </b>by our dedicated team of skilled craftsmen and are stocked in
our warehouse enabling us to ship most orders within days of receiving them!</span></span></p>

I am taking action to have the top, batting and backing basted to make ready for my attempted quilting. It will be on its way and to my Granddaughter in whatever stage it may reach and my long ago effort will not be for naught. </span></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLICa2cj46QZlSo8U8pBnqtnlwKJGREX0iuvcECYtukm1TQxpzsfazYyVCnL8se-Gow3NlcUNxSryPlY67wKbfgmX__e9mOS5qhHpLVh26Q8pya9ffSL-dxdkGiXcmQRCvCz_RqgEcph-U/s640/IMG_1474.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="469" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLICa2cj46QZlSo8U8pBnqtnlwKJGREX0iuvcECYtukm1TQxpzsfazYyVCnL8se-Gow3NlcUNxSryPlY67wKbfgmX__e9mOS5qhHpLVh26Q8pya9ffSL-dxdkGiXcmQRCvCz_RqgEcph-U/w625-h469/IMG_1474.JPG" width="625" /></span></a></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">Having researched quilt batting to ensure manageable weight, ease of quilting, care and most importantly "loft" I have decided on Quilters Dream Wool for my quilting.

Quilters are known for their giving hearts and stepping up
in any way they can. Recently, quilters from all over the world have come together
to protect their communities. In the mist of social distancing, they have been diligently
sewing face masks to help defend people who are exposed to Covid-19. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Some people are making masks for hospital staff and first
responders. They are also making them for essential employees and their coworkers.
Others are creating masks to keep their family and friends safe. No matter the
reason that they have, they are putting their time, money, and materials aside
to protect the people they care for. <o:p></o:p></div>

We are learning more about this developing disease and how
to combat it. Aside from hand washing and disinfecting, CDC recommends homemade
face masks to slow the spread of the virus and help people, who may have the
virus and do not know it, from transmitting it to others. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Cloth face coverings are a good option for those who are in
public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult to
maintain (e.g., grocery stores and pharmacies), especially in areas of
significant community-based transmission. With the limited amount of medical grade
masks, which should be reserved for healthcare workers and other medical first
responders, these homemade masks are great secondary option. They may not stop
you from getting the coronavirus, but they will help slow the speed in which it
spreads. <o:p></o:p><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">What's a Christmas party without games and gifts?? Not ours. That's for sure! The first game we played was the left right story game. One person reads the story out loud- in this case it was office gal Jennifer with her confident and boisterous voice we love! Any time throughout the story she read the words left or right you had to pass your gift. The shuffling of gifts and trying to concentrate was absolutely hilarious! After the story was done- you got to keep the gift you ended up with. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The second game we played is a favorite! The saran wrap ball. Each ball is filled with fun little treats with the main prize in the center. When it's your turn, you try to unwrap as much as you can keeping whatever falls out along the way. Meanwhile, the player next to you is rolling dice trying to get doubles to take the ball from you. You'd be surprised how quickly you can roll doubles! With the amount of excitement and infectious laughter this game brought, we were lucky to have a private room!</span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Making a quilt is an art, dedication and therapy that requires lots of love, attention, patience</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">and inspiration. We spend hours looking for a good design, right fabrics and notions, we</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">think about quilting designs in detail and pay attention to colors, shapes and textures. That</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">all is a massive work, and it is very important not to miss one more significant detail: what is</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">inside of your quilt? Does this inner layer guarantee the perfect result? Will it help your quilt</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">live longer and survive laundries? Is it, finally, safe to be used by little ones or people with</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">allergies?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Today I am going to uncover the veil and show you the everyday choices I make as a</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">professional quilter.</span><br />
<br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Every single day a new quilt top (or two, or three) enters my studio to be turned into quilt.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Customers entrust me not the pieces of fabric sewn together, but pieces of true love. Every</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">time I hold a quilt top, I feel that energy poured into it, and I know I can’t fail the expectations</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">of a person who sent me it and of a person who is about to get this quilt as a meaningful gift</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">from someone who truly loves them. I pay attention to the thread I am going to use, to a</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">quilting design that may enhance the beauty of piecing, and of course, I choose the best</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">batting.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">First of all, I want to be sure that the batting I am using for my customers’ quilts are safe, soft,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">with minimal shrinkage and stable quality that lasts from roll to roll. I love that there are no</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">scrims, glues or other binders inside any type of batting I choose. High quality fibers used</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">for manufacturing mean great result for every quilt; and happy customers, too. I choose</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Quilters’ Dream Batting because it is also available in a wide variety of lofts, products, and</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">sizes to meet all of my quilting needs.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">For example, baby quilts are safe to use with natural breathable <a href="http://www.quiltersdreambatting.com/products/quilters-dream-cotton/">cotton</a> or <a href="http://www.quiltersdreambatting.com/products/dream-orient/">bamboo</a> inside.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Quilts with this batting turn out lightweight, flexible and soft with beautiful silky drape. It is a</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">good idea to go with hypoallergenic high loft <a href="http://www.quiltersdreambatting.com/products/quilters-dream-puff/">Puff</a>. With this particular batting, you’ll get a puffy, cuddly, amazingly comfortable quilt that - as a bonus - dries within minutes after being laundered.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">As an everyday regular option, <a href="http://www.quiltersdreambatting.com/products/fusion-8020/">80/20</a> is my go-to batting. This batting is a perfect blend of</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">80% high quality cotton and 20% fine denier poly microfiber. This batting never fails me, and</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">the quilts come out soft, silky, drape beautifully and breathe well.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Making a quilt for winter and cooler temperatures? Let’s choose <a href="http://www.quiltersdreambatting.com/products/dream-wool/">Wool</a> - light, luxurious and</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">wonderfully warm batting that will not only keep you warm, but also beautifully fulfill the</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">quilt and show the beauty of quilting.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Wool is a must have on the shelf for custom quilts because only this combination of</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">two layers of batting: cotton/semi-cotton plus wool on top - helps me reach beautiful effect</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">of fullness and rich texture that highlights any quilt.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">What else I love about wool is that it springs back to its original loft after being washed or</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">folded (which is a wonderful quality for a show quilt!), and it's exceptionally durable, rich</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">and resilient ensuring that your quilts will be treasured for generations.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Every custom quilt I finish leaves my studio with a layer of Quilter's Dream Wool inside.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I am known for my freemotion quilting, and when people choose my service for their</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">precious quilts from simple baby quilts to luxury show pieces, I need to be sure that I am</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">able to offer them sustainable high quality of my work. It's fantastic and really helpful</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">that I found my favorite batting brand that I trust, so all I need to concentrate on is my</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">quilting - because Quilter's Dream Batting does the rest.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">We started by cutting strips of the 5 inch wide gray and red Cuddle fabric in half, giving us 2.5 inch strips. I did forgot to bring a ruler with me so we improvised by using a piece of metal we had in the office. It worked and made straight lines!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Laying the batting on a flat surface, we centered the backing fabric onto the batting, so backing was right side up. Jennifer folded back the backing fabric halfway and sprayed the wrong side of the fabric with 505 spray adhesive. I also forgot to bring parchment paper, so we used a large envelope to protect the right side of the fabric. The Dream Team is great at improvising!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Cheryl used the 505 spray and adhered the backside of the second and third strip to the batting. Remember to use a piece of parchment or freezer paper behind the strip previously sewn and then spray with adhesive. Then she pinned the forth and fifth the same way she did the last step. Finally, she stitched all the remaining strips. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">We cut the the gray Cuddle into 1 3/4 strips and joined them with a diagonal seam. I attempted to cut this in the office, but there was a ton of fluffy fibers in the air. I took all of the binding fabric home and cut the fabric in my laundry room, then immediately tossed them into the dryer. Using a cool setting, the lint trap caught all of the tiny fibers and gave us a mess free binding.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Thank you Shannon Fabrics for sending the Dream Team these cuddle kits! We all learned a lot from this experience. Jennifer and Cheryl even bought their own sewing machines after completing their first quilt! It was a lot of fun and we are all excited for our next sewing adventure!</span></div>

finally I just got out of bed and sketched it. The quilting lines running
across the quilt represent life as usual just flowing along and the colorful
pieces darkening and falling until they are all black and in a box with a still
beating heart represent the parts of the ALS patient as they fail until the
person is alone in the ”glass coffin” of ALS. <o:p></o:p></b></i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">When I was 19 years old my grandma taught me how to quilt.
It was the summer after my freshman year in college and I was staying at my
grandparent’s house for a few weeks. During the time I spent with them, we
pieced a whole twin size quilt top! I later had my local long-arm quilter do
the quilting for me.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I love that quilt to pieces, especially for what it gave me
– the love of quilting AND an amazing hobby to deepen my relationship with my
beloved grandma. I never really stopped quilting after that first one. From the
living room of my first apartment, to the dining room table of my sorority
house, to the sewing room in my first home with my husband, one thing has been
constant: a deep need to always be quilting.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Once I realized the cost of having a long-armer finish my
quilts I quickly came to terms with the fact that I was going to need to learn
how to do that part myself! I did a few free-motion quilts, and even more with
my walking foot, but lately I have totally fallen in love with the steady,
therapeutic slow rhythm of hand quilting. When I first started trying out hand
quilting I had very little knowledge of different <a href="http://quiltersdreambatting.blogspot.com/search?q=batting+university">batting types</a>, but it was my
love for hand quilting that spurred me to seek out the best batting for a comfortable,
lightweight feel that worked great on hand quilting –<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Quilters

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">It is a blend of fibers including Silk, Cotton, and Bamboo
and has a super luxurious feel! It's low loft, lightweight, and cozy as can be
- which is necessary for a Florida girl like me! The absolute best part about
Quilter's Dream Orient batting is that you can quilt as dense as you like, or
up to 8" apart, which makes it incredibly versatile! If you've never tried
Orient batting, I highly suggest you give it a go on your next quilting
project!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />ALS affects the nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord that control voluntary muscle movement, though the core cause is unknown and no cure exists. When neurons in the brain can no longer communicate with muscles, those with ALS suffer from muscle weakening, twitching, and an inability to move their arms, legs and body. Over time, the condition gets worse. </span></div>

<span style="color: #1d2228; font-family: "new serif" , serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">After
seeing beautiful quilts that my grandmothers and aunts had made, I knew I wanted
to learn all about the process. They used their quilts as a necessity. We
didn’t live close to any of them. We would do family reunions which lasted two
weeks every other year. I remember staying at my Aunt Johnny’s and we would pile quilts
on the floor of the living room for me to use as a bed. I am not kidding when I
say the pile was about 8 inches thick.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #1d2228; font-family: "new serif", serif; font-size: large;">I am a self taught quilter. I started
quilting when I was in my early 20’s. I had a lot of mishaps but I stayed with
it. Now I get my inspiration from quilting magazines, blogs that I follow and
researching the internet for a specific block or quilt layout.</span></div>

find quilting very relaxing. My favorite part of the quilting process would be
when I remove the finished quilt from the dryer. I call that quilty goodness.</span><span style="color: #1d2228; font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif; font-size: 11.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">In our home town of Virginia Beach, 12 people were recently killed and four injured in a mass shooting. In times like these, people from all over the world are looking for ways to help. Members of the <a href="https://vbmqg.blogspot.com/">Virginia Beach Modern Quilt Guild</a> are using their talents to help comfort the victims of the Virginia Beach mass shooting.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The goal was to create 16 quilts for the victims and their families. A total of 480 <a href="https://totallystitchin.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Low-Volume-Plus-Swap-Block-Pattern-3-17.pdf">Plus Blocks</a> would be needed to construct the quilts. The guild sought help from local quilters and social media with the hashtag <a href="https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/vbstrongquilts/">#VBStrongQuilts</a>. Mary Menzer of the VB Modern Quilt Guild collaborated with Quilters Dream Batting to provide batting for #VBStrongQuilts. She invited us to attend the next guild meeting to lend a hand in sewing quilt blocks, to help in this worthy cause. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">During the show I demonstrated the fluidity of the quilt, despite the weight of two tops and dense quilting, by waving the quilt from a bottom corner. The lightness of the finished piece surprised even me. The limber quality of the piece is due to my choice of quilt batt - Quilter's Dream Request.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I use Quilters Dream <a href="http://www.quiltersdreambatting.com/products/quilters-dream-cotton/"> Request</a> in all my quilts for multiple reasons. I appreciate the 100% cotton construction and batt thickness which produces a flat quilt reminiscent of antique quilts. The cotton batt is excellent for both machine and hand quilting - I love the opportunity to use batt remnants in hand quilting doll and crib quilts (notice the Baptist Fan hand quilting underway in the picture of the book).<br /><br />I've used this batt for many years and will continue for many more - consistent, excellent quality.<br /><br />Vicki Hodge<br /><a href="https://fromthebuttonbox.blogspot.com/" rel="noreferrer" style="color: purple;" target="_blank">https://fromthebuttonbox.blogspot.com</a></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">After each challenge year for Hopes & Dreams, we create a book for all our sponsors who donated prizes. In this book we include a section of thank you notes and responses from ALS patients that received YOUR quilts. We thought you all might enjoy to see what they have said and feel the love with us! </span><br />
