New Patterns !!!

October 02, 2020

New patterns are added to the website, I know some of you have been waiting patiently for these. I have added the Bloomin Baskets Quilt Pattern, Bloomin Baskets is a red and white quilt that I made for Today's Quilter Magazine issue #64, I was so proud that it made the cover. I have also added the Pine Tree Quilt pattern, that was in the APQ calendar for 2020, such a big thrill.

Bloomin Baskets Quilt

I used a mix of background fabrics and a large mix of reds and solid red fabrics to make this quilt. I love to blend as many fabrics as I can in, pulling all of them from my stash. You can find the pattern here.

Pine Tree Quilt

While out for a walk after the rain, with the sun was coming in through the Pines making everything look fresh and new. After I got home I pulled out the fabrics to make this quilt. You can find the pattern here.
