New from Erica Jackman

Erica Jackman of Kitchen Table Quilting may have designed this generation’s version of the double wedding ring quilt!

The Gracie Quilt Pattern

Erica says the Gracie Quilt Pattern is quick and easy to put together and it is a great way to use Layer Cake squares, fat eighths, or scraps. It lends itself to working with a collection or pulling a bundle from your stash. The pattern has instructions for baby size (36″ x 36″), lap size (54″ x 72″), twin size (72″ x 90″), and queen size (90″ x 108″) quilts.

The Freya Quilt Pattern


The Freya Quilt Pattern is such a fun project! It can be made with a Jelly Roll, fat eighths, fat quarters, OR it is a fantastic scrap or stash buster. The pattern has instructions for baby size (38″ x 48″), lap size (58″ x 68″), and twin size (68″ x 88″) quilts. Maybe because Valentine’s Day is coming up, but I can’t be the only one who sees hearts???

The Diana Quilt Pattern

The Diana Quilt Pattern is a quick, fun way to show off your fabrics. It works well as a rainbow quilt, but also can feature your favorite fabric collections or solids. The design is particularly fun for bed size quilts. The pattern has instructions for baby size (36″ x 48″), lap size (60″ x 72″), twin size (72″ x 96″), and queen size (96″ x 116″) quilts. It gives the illusion of curves without having to sew them!

These patterns are due to arrive this month, so place your orders now!

New from Meg Hawkey

This new block of the month by Meg Hawkey is called Hope Blooms. Each block blooms with a variety of beautiful roses which are stitched and then tinted to add the depth and charm we all love.

Each pattern in the series contains patterns for two embroidered blocks. The first pattern includes the instructions for the quilt layout and pieced blocks so you can work on those as you go as well.

The finished quilt measures 51 1/2″, perfect for a throw or wall hanging. This pattern is due to arrive the middle of next month so place your orders now.

New from Corey Yoder

Wooly Stars by Corey Yoder of Coriander Quilts is an Ohio gal so this pattern is especially dear to my heart. The Ohio Star pieced into each sheep adds that awe factor. And, at 62″ square is a great throw size. Why not make one for that knitter in your life or it would be a great toddler quilt or wall hanging.

Wooly Stars

Heart Strings uses light and dark shades of six different fabrics to create this double sized quilt. Don’t you love the secondary pattern that is formed with the background fabric?

Heart Threads

Sun Twist combines shades of solids to create the striped pinwheels in this bed-sized quilt.

All of these patterns are due to arrive next month so place your orders now.

A Slice of Summer

I love this pattern By Patch Abilites, Inc. for so many reasons besides the fact that it is absolutely darling!

Watermelon Place

It is a Quilt-As-Ya-Go project so you can actually finish it in a class. Don’t you love instant gratification? And your customers will love that they leave the class with it totally done.

I am showing this to you now because you may be able to repurpose some of those reds and greens from your Christmas fabrics. (Pretend there isn’t snow on the ground.)

You need five different reds and a green stripe so it would be easy to kit.

And, it is a great beginner class. It would be a great opportunity to teach them about battings, fusible battings, and binding. Who could ask for anything more?

Patch Abilities is now offering many of their favorite patterns in a machine embroidery format and a version that includes the embellishments. Check out our website to see the options available.

This pattern is due to arrive next month so place your orders now.

I have included the fabrics used in this quilt so you can see the vibrancy of the fabrics and visualize what the sample would look like hanging in your store. AND, it only takes 3 fabrics! What a great Valentine gift for any quilter!

Seasonal Door Quilts

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:

Cheers Party Mini Quilts Pattern

It joins the other patterns in the series:

Love and Luck Mini Quilts
Peace Risen Mini Quilts Pattern
Boo Eek Mini Quilt Series
Give/Thanks Mini Quilt Series Quilt Pattern

I love that they are all the exact same size so they can be interchanged and displayed on your door – inside or out!

HoHo Joy Mini Quilt Series Quilt Pattern

New from Cluck, Cluck, Sew

Heartsy, the newest addition to the Cluck, Cluck, Sew pattern line, is fat-quarter friendly and includes instructions for five different sizes. This beginner-friendly quilt pattern is due to arrive early next month and would make a great Valentine gift!

Heartsy

For those of you who loved Brightly, it is the same pattern – just a different center block theme. And we all know how popular that pattern is!

Brightly

Pumpkin Patches is also based on the Brightly pattern.

Pumpkin Patches

Why not start a series of classes? The Heartsy quilt for Spring, Brightly in patriotic fabrics for summer, and Pumpkin Patches for Fall?

Or offer a class in one and offer the other versions as kits. Once they make one, they will have the confidence and expertise to make them all!

Fabric Bowls as Art

Modern Fabric Art Bowls written by Kirsten Fisher takes fabric bowl making to a whole new level!

Modern Fabric Art Bowls
Modern Fabric Art Bowls
Modern Fabric Art Bowls

In their words: Delve into the world of quilts, fabrics, and bowl making! Take quilt blocks and bring them into the three dimensional space as tasteful, modern bowls. Kirsten Fisher shares her unique artistic vision and instructions on how you can take any piece of fabric and reinvent it using the design of your choice. Perfect to forever display a favorite fabric or quilt block, or provide a thoughtful gift to loved ones.

What a great way to use orphan blocks! Or, use them as a fundraiser. A youth group in our area made the bowls and sold them to members of the congregation. The purchasers used them to hold spare change. All proceeds, and the spare change, were then donated to the food pantry. What a great way to make a difference in your community.


Dimensions: 8.62in x 0.25in x 11.07in

Valentine Pouch

I already want to make these for everyone I know!

Be Mine Heart Zipper Pouch

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.

The Latest from Quiltworx

Not only do I love the quilts, you have to love the names and covers as well! Tequila Lime? Really – what a great name! This quilt measures 68″ square but an expansion pack is available if you want a queen.

Tequila Lime

Fortune Teller definitely has a celestial feel with the floating stars in the scallops. And don’t you love the way those scallops extend into the borders?

Fortune Teller

Setting Alchemists Crystals on point adds that awe factor to this queen/king sized quilt.
