I have several so far and want to collect them all for my quilt room. They are so cute and fun to use them as a quirky purse. Are Tins designed for most lines and how can I see previous Tins from earlier collections?

I have various interests such as how you obtain designers, what the process is for determining a design, how does one become a designer, but with all of that in the works I think WHAT I'D REALLY LIKE TO KNOW IS: how did Moda get started? What is the foundational history of such a successful business? How old is Moda? What are the mission and vision of Moda?<BR/><BR/>Thank you kindly~Marionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10868074835346399240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7508857823676162312.post-40038992136788887532008-02-04T17:48:00.000-06:002008-02-04T17:48:00.000-06:00Hi Lissa, I'm excited about the Starry Nights Kit ...Hi Lissa,<BR/> <BR/>I'm excited about the Starry Nights Kit I saw on the Moda website which will be available in March.

You never know, right? LOL** I mean, what quilter WOULDN'T want to design for Moda? Lol* Also, how exactly does the design process work? Are those cabbage roses drawn by hand first? Or are there computer programs used to aid designers with shapes and concepts? Is there a recipe that designers use when creating their lines? Like so many large prints, medium, and then small? Then do they build off of those? Then how are the designs transferred to fabric? Are large scale "stamps" used, and how are they made if so? Lol* We want to know it all. Moda is like chocolate for quilters... :)Valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15241420326601189068noreply@blogger.com
