And, in this case, it is a good thing! These patterns by Claire Turpin are sure to make you smile.
And, now it is even easier to create the wonky look that adds a touch of whimsey to this quilt. What is not to love!
This & That have created a whole series of patterns that feature individual quilt blocks that make a great wall display.
At such a reasonable price, these would be great kitted in different colorways as a register display. A demo each month sharing different techniques used in each block would be the icing on the cake.
Me and My Sister Designs have created some new patterns perfect for kitting. A Tisket A Tasket…2 Fat Quarter Basket is the perfect Make It Take It class!
Love Shack and Chex Mix are both 10 inch square friendly – fast, fun and easy.
Corsage is fat eighth friendly – or buy fat quarters and make one for a friend!
All are a perfect addition to a pre-cut display!
Rebekah Smith has designed two wool mats that can add a spark of color to any decor. Folk Hearts has two options – both so charming you will want to make both!
This table runner is stunning in Fall colors but would be gorgeous in Spring colors as well. The shape adds that awe factor and highlights the design as well.
Summer is beginning and is the perfect time for a bit of handwork. Wool is the perfect choice for a take along project!
I love the way Cindi’s mind works. Just look how she cut apart just four Hoffman panels and created a stunning quilt! Talk about letting the fabric speak for itself! And, since there is very little waste of fabric, it is very affordable.
Mountain Stream creates an ombre effect which gives the illusion of the sun shining on the water.
Along the Lake adds a graphic element with black highlights.
And, Hashtag is just plain fun!
All of these patterns are due to arrive the end of June so order them now.
