My Go West pattern has been out for a while, and every now and then I get an email asking me how to make it bigger. The quilt pattern can be made in three sizes: baby mat, lap and twin. I didn’t create a queen version for it because it didn’t size out so well, …
QuiltCon accepted two of my quilts this year; a privilege given the volume of quilts submitted. One of the accepted quilts is my Rainbow Plus quilt (from this pattern): The other quilt is a version of my Diamonds in the Deep pattern. You might remember this version I created in navy: I’d wanted to sew …
I have a new pattern to show to you all today! It’s taken me a while to get this one finalised, but I’m very happy to present The Plus Side quilt. If you’re anything like me you may have looked at your stash and wondered “how on earth am I ever going to sew my way …
I’m pleased to show you my latest quilt finish. This is the Go West quilt. I had a great time using Carolyn Friedlander’s Doe fabric to make this one. The line has a fun mix of low volume fabrics as well as some lovely saturated colours. I think that the sage green is my favourite so …
A rail fence quilt pattern. Or is it a fence rail quilt pattern? I’ve seen it both ways and I’m confused! I had another finish this week – this time a lap-sized (60″ x 66″) quilt. I’m calling it Off the Rails as it uses the rail fence quilt block, but in random placement/orientation in …
This past week has been my week of OPS – Other People’s Stuff. I’ve had such a fun time sewing other people’s patterns – first there was Jane’s Bob Box and now I have my version of a pattern by Peta from She Quilts A lot. It’s called True North, and I’ve made the mini version (finishes …
In my last post I introduced you to my latest pattern, Gather ‘Round, which was made with solid fabrics. I think this quilt pattern looks great in solids. It has a bit of that midwestern style to it. For something different, I decided to make a version in print fabric, too. This version is …
This post is a recap of my navy and white Diamonds in the Deep quilt (pattern can be purchased here) as an entry in the Blogger’s Quilt Festival. It’s both brilliant and painful to watch all the amazing Houston Quilt Market photos roll in. Brilliant because there are so many talented quilters out there and …
Nothing like a finish on a Friday, right? I’ll admit I finished this a while ago, I just dragged the chain on taking some photographs. Luckily my resident tall person helped me out so that I can show you my lap-sized Diamonds in the Deep quilt (pattern can be purchased here). I am very drawn …
OK you guys – are you ready for the queen sized Diamonds in the Deep? (pattern available here) You absolutely must go over to Kim’s blog, Leland Ave Studios, and see how her test of the queen sized version of the pattern turned out. You’ll love it! (and make sure you tell her.) I’m so …
