New from Doug Leko of Antler Quilt Design

You know anything by Doug Leko is an instant hit. Even though this book won’t be available until this Fall, I wanted you to be aware of it because it is an awesome BOM that you may want to add to your classes the beginning of the year. Chatsworth can be a 12 month BOM or a quilt kit to have available all at one time. There are 12 different pieced blocks, but magic happens in the setting of the quilt!

There are 4 projects included in the book.
Large Quilt: 74” x 88”
Bonus Table Runner: 20” x 68”
Bonus Table Topper: 56” x 56”
Bonus Flying Geese Quilt: 64” x 84”

Doug recommends these companions to aid in making these projects:

Make accurate folded corners every time. Never draw a line for folded corners again! Create perfect folded corners with the Simple Folded Corners ruler from Antler Quilt Design. 12 different sizes to choose from, 1/2in to 6in finished folded corner.

Choose between two methods: Oversize folded corners that are trimmed down, or exact size folded corners with no trimming needed. Easy to ready ruler. No matter what shape you are adding a folded corner to (square, rectangular, triangle), Simple Folded Corners can add them with ease! Use with any pattern calling for folded corners. Remarkably accurate! Simple Folded Corners comes with fully illustrated step by step instructions. Left and Right Handed Instructions given.

Create perfect Braided Flying Geese every time with this foundation paper. Choose between 5 different styles of Flying Geese, from Braided to Traditional and everything in-between!

Flying Geese Finished Size: 8” x 4”
Unfinished Flying Geese Size: 8.5” x 4.5”
50 Sheets Per Pad
Not required for AQD0419 Chatsworth Quilt, but VERY helpful.

Everything will be in stock the beginning of October so you will have plenty of time to get a sample done for the new year.

I love everything he does, and his new releases are no exception. Most are designed around pre-cuts so you can achieve a scrappy look without trying! And a few use scraps so you can use up fabric you already have. What is not to love???

Have each staff member choose their favorite, make a sample and teach that class. You will have all of your samples done in no time and your customers will get a chance to meet your entire staff! Now that is a win/win for everyone! Change the fabrics with the seasons and feature different techniques each month. After all, every month has to be a learning opportunity to keep them coming back!

Have them kitted each month in several fabrics so they can choose their favorites – and get to see the topper in other colorways as well. They may end up buying additional kits since these make great gifts!

A follow up machine quilting class would be a plus so they could finish each topper as they go. These books will be arriving this month so order your copies now!
