Don’t you love the wonky houses and haunted trees?
And these little witches can visit anytime.
These baubles make a darling Christmas quilt but would look very 70’s hip in other colors. Remember when purple and orange were all the rage?
And what could be more patriotic than a summer quilt of stars?
Or a bunny hop in the Spring?

This is the most creative leaf pattern I have ever seen! Don’t you love the star incorporated into the base of every leaf?

This Cut Loose Press™ pattern #CLPKAL014 features four letters that are all pieced individually after the angles are cut with the Creative Grids® Spiderweb Ruler #CGRKA6. The width of each letter doesn’t matter. Each letter can be trimmed after the sashing strips are added so that the height of each block is exactly the same before they are sewn together.
Karla Alexander is one of my favorite designers because she thinks WAY outside of the box. In this case, she created all of the cutting instructions to work with directional fabrics. And, the pieces are oversized so they are trimmed to size after piecing the angles. With big pieces and built-in fudge factors, even beginners will be successful. The angled pieces are all cut with her Creative Grids® Spiderweb Ruler.
What a great shower or wedding gift. The guests could sign the backing fabric.
At 18 x 53 inches, it would make a statement hanging above a bed! I’m thinking about framing each letter individually and hanging them as a headboard.

In Kelli’s own words: When I realized they weren’t teaching cursive writing anymore at my son’s school, I started the Keeping Cursive Alive Mini Quilt Series. At 12 x 24″ finished, these are the perfect size to hang on the front door, or anywhere else you’re feeling festive! Let’s make door quilts a thing! These mini quilt patterns are designed to use 100% scraps! All traditional piecing and straight seams.
The newest addition to the line is due to arrive soon:
It joins the other patterns in the series:
I love that they are all the exact same size so they can be interchanged and displayed on your door – inside or out!
When my kids were growing up, I would write them a love letter every year for Valentine’s Day. We would do a scavenger hunt complete with hokey poems…Roses are red, Daddy is blue; go to the place where he takes a poo…you get the picture!. Emily Dickenson, I am not, but when you raise four boys and a girl, you have to consider your audience!
I had already decided to bring back that tradition for my kids and grandkids this year. Because of the pandemic, I will send poems and letters to the parents and pass on the tradition. But wouldn’t these bags be great envelopes for the letters as well as a few treats?
Check out these features:
BAG DIMENSIONS: 8in Tall x 7in Wide x 3in Deep – 9.5in at the top when closed.
Bag can be made using one mini charm pack (42 – 2.5in) squares. Pattern includes instructions for two different ways to attach the zipper. Added Bonus option for a smaller bag.
Valentine’s Day is on a Monday this year so why not hold a class on the Saturday before. If you have embroidery machines, an initial or monogram in the center of that heart would add the awe factor!
These patterns are due to arrive next week so order them now! No exposed seams.
Christmas Wishes is a perfect three month “block of the month”. Make the trees one month, the presents the next, and put it all together in the third month. Fifteen trees or 15 presents are very doable in that time frame. AND they will have plenty of time to get it quilted and bound by the next holiday season!
Add that awe factor by tagging the presents with family names.
Merry and Bright is another pattern that could be broken down into a three month series of classes. Do the small stars one month, the plain stars another, and the intricate pieced stars in the final class. While this is shown in holiday colors, it would be a perfect choice for a summer patriotic quilt as well.
North Star is a stunning lap quilt. The background fabric makes the stars shine and is a perfect backdrop for some exquisite quilting.
All of these patterns are due to arrive in the next few weeks so place your orders now.
