Madame BlindHem has cast her gaze into the stars to divine next month's sewing futures for IFQ members. Read on and learn what heavenly influences will be exerted on your sewing this month!
Capricorn
|
Dear Capricorn, the stars conspire to take you away from the humdrum day-to-day chores and free you to lock yourself in your sewing room and create, create, create!! You've been given celestrial permission to forego housework, leave laundry behind and defrost or order in for dinner! You're going to love November! |
Aquarius
|
O Aquarius, Jupiter is a strong influence on you this month and prepares you for some serious holiday sewing! Why not try the IFQ "Santa Has Come" project? It's a charming wallhanging that will put your right into the holiday spirit.

Pisces
|
Dear Pisces, the stars are a jumble for you this month!! This is NOT the month to start an heirloom wedding ring quilt! However, you'll fnd it a perfect month for small projects! Hurry and sign up for the IFQ Christmas Card FAP exchange. These small projects will satisfy your sewing urge and if you don't follow the rules, that's OK with a FAP! |
Aries
|
O Aries, your solar influences are strong this month, drawing you to .... embellishment! Yes, this is the month to go wild on embellishments. Pull out those fun little buttons, ribbons, sequins and beads. And just go wild! |
Taurus
|
Dear Taurus, Mercury goes into retrograde for you in the middle of the month so you'll find an interesting shift in your sewing. You'll start the month being drawn to soft colors and small projects but by the end of the month, you'll be pulling out the brights in your stash! So be sure to get in lots of sewing this month - you'll end up with very different results! |
Gemini
|
O Gemini, the position of the planets bode well for you this month. The synchronicity of your stellar allignment brings wonderful things to your sewing. You'll be drawn to strong designs so don't fight this! Remember to echo the symmetry of your planetary alignments with your quilting designs and you will be able to do no wrong! |
Cancer
|
Dear Cancer, Mars rules your house this month and exacts strict measures. It's best if you stick to simple designs and try not to stray. This is not the month to let yourself loose. The stars demand discipline!
|
Leo
|
O Leo, the lunar influence will be strong this month. You will seek harmony in your sewing. Try not to over commit this month since you will not do well sewing under a deadline. Expect to spend more time on each project - but we promise you the result will be worth it! |
Virgo
|
Dear Virgo, the stars rule that this month your color is .... blue! There is a lot that can be done with blue. For instance, blue and white quilts are a favorite at IFQ. So don't fight the stellar influences and start pulling out your blue toned stash! |
Libra
|
O Libra, Mars clashes with Jupiter this month for you and consequently you will find yourself drawn toward large prints. Don't fight the planetary influences! There are many wonderful things you can do with large prints! Go for larger, less intricate projects. This month is not a time for precision but rather it is a time for expression! |
Scorpio
|
Dear Scorpio, Saturn leads strongly in your celestrial house this month. Your stars are telling you to feature yellow in your designs. And surely we know by now, we MUST follow the stars. So start looking for those yellow fabrics and use them to add a bit of sparkle to your projects! |
Sagittarius
|
O Sagittarius, the stars will bring you a sense of adventure this month. So try something you have never done before!! Perhaps the IFQ Surfing Sue project is just the thing for you if you have not much experience with miniature quilts. This is the month to "quilt beyond YOUR borders"! The stars will guide you, have no fear! |
