Some features include:
• Easy to read markings.

• Comes with fully illustrated step by step instructions.
• Scan the QR Code printed on insert to view a how-to video of these features and to see the projects that can be made with this tool.

JOLLY TREE QUILT

Build a tree with hexagons, and decorate it with all your favorite holiday fabrics. Jolly Tree is as straight-forward as hexies can get, repeating the same construction sequence for everything but the simply-pieced base. It’s precut and scrap friendly, plus there are absolutely no Y seams. You’ll find paper templates included, or can treat yourself and get the acrylic templates.

The grand result, be it scrappy or sleek, will make this the perfect modern quilt pattern to display during the holiday season.

HEXIE BUNCH

Gather as many flowers into a bunch in your hands: it’s time for Hexie Bunch! Grab your favorite fat quarter bundle or pick from your stash like picking flowers for a bouquet, before stitching it all together in a piece that will last much longer than a wilting plant. Best of all, no y-seams, no paper piecing, and Hexie Bunch is fat quarter friendly. This is a kind of gardening we can all get onboard with! It will last beyond Spring and Summer! This quilt pattern is a great introduction to hexagons.

Nine Carat Quilt by Sarah Fulks

All you need is ten fat quarters and a favorite background fabric to create this stunning quilt. It is easier than you think! Piece large nine-patches together. The magic happens when you sub-cut them and sew them back together in a different configuration.

The instructions are written for an over-sized throw but you can add or delete blocks to make the quilt of your dreams. You may even learn a new technique along the way.

Purr-sonality by Deb Heatherly

Just five 10-inch and five 5-inch squares are needed to make the blocks in this quilt. What a great way to learn how to use the Creative Grids Cat’s Cradle Tool. The blocks are created with squares and rectangles and then trimmed to size. The trimming creates the triangles, it’s magic!

Applique a cat in the corner or use holiday themed fabric and applique leaves, holly, snowflakes, pumpkins…the possibilities are endless. You won’t be able to just make one! The Cat’s Cradle Tool is required to make the pattern.

Flexible Floe Runner by Jill Blair

Flexible Floe Runner is made from one charm pack or (36) 5″ squares. The cover runner features neutrals for a modern look. But I would love to see it in holiday fabrics. Pumpkins or snowflakes anyone?

This is the perfect group or beginner project. Since the blocks are all trimmed to the same size AFTER the angled seams are sewn, all the blocks are the same size. A little fudge factor built into a project is always a good thing! The Creative Grids Straight Out Of Line Tool is required.

The Creative Grids 4-1/2 inch square and the Folded Corner Clipper are recommended.

All of these patterns are in stock now.

TRUNK ORGANIZER

This trunk organizer features four separate compartments and two outside pockets, providing lots of storage. The sections and dividers are all sewn and bound individually so construction is a piece of cake. The outside handles provide ease of mobility when in use. When storing, collapse it, but it is so pretty, why not always leave it ready?

Planning a trip to the beach? What a great way to store and carry towels, floaties, sunscreen, repellant, sand toys…you get the picture. Once you start thinking outside of the box, you’ll want several and so will your friends!
