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.

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!

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.
