Reflections on 2018 and the Winterwood Quilt

Winterwood Quilt | Sharon Keightley Quilts

I can't believe a whole year has past and a new one is about to begin. 2018 has been a full one. With so many exciting engagements, projects and plans.

    There was the 2018 BOM which I am currently quilting and I only have the final border to quilt. I am looking forward to sharing my finished quilt with you all. It was wonderful to see so many of you sharing the pictures of your quilts on the Sharon Keightley Quilts face-book page. The full pattern for this will be coming out in the new year available as a PDF download. The name so far is going to be "Snowball Delight' What do you think?

    There have been teaching engagements that were a lot of fun. Teaching applique, and meeting wonderful people is one of the best things.

    I have had the pleasure of having my quilts published in Today's Quilter Magazine. There are still more quilt patterns to be published so keep a lookout for them. It is such fun sharing my patterns and quilts in this beautiful magazine.

Here are the last two quilts that were published. Winterberry and Rose Arbour. If you like the quilts and would like to learn applique check out the classes I have coming up in February at Grandmothers Garden Quilt Shop.

Winterberry Quilt | Sharon Keightley Quilts         These are just a few of the things that I got up to in 2018. There is more to come but I am not able to tell you just yet. I will keep you all posted when I am able to spill the beans. Lots of secret sewing has been going on.

New patterns are coming along, so in the New Year, there will be some surprises.

    The Full version of the Winterwood Pattern is now available as a full pattern containing everything you need to complete the whole quilt. The Winterwood quilt pattern can be found here containing 71 pages. This is one of my favorite quilts, I loved every minute of making this beautiful quilt. Sometimes everything seems to go along so smoothly when designing and making a quilt, this quilt was one of those times.

 Well, I guess 2018 has been quite a year! Roll on 2019.........

 

Happy Stitching
