I am super excited to share all about my new pattern quilts this week!!! So let's get right to it ;) Here is How They Shine!!! I just got to teach this class at Garden of Quilts two weeks ago, and we had such a great time making these fun star blocks!!!
How They Shine is such a fun quilt to make and is the perfect quilt for any occasion. You could totally make a Holiday Version, or Wedding Quilt, or just about anything with this super versatile design. Just change up the fabric and you will get a whole new look. The quilt is made with HST's, Stitch and Flip Corners, and basic piecing so it really comes together quick. And with the two layouts of blocks, you get some wonderful secondary patterns in the design.
I quilted this version of How They Shine with one of my favorite's when I have a "grid" in the piecing. I did some fun Wavy Orange peel that I echoed to add more texture. I just love the way it makes these blocks just pop!! I added a little curly q border around the outside of the quilt to make the "grid" work and it sets everything off just perfectly.
So let's share those sizes. You will find 5 size options in this pattern: Baby, Lap, Twin, Picnic, and Queen. So now you can make the quilts in just the right size for you, or make one in each size :) I already have a baby size in the works, tee hee hee :)
And that is my new How They Shine quilt and Pattern!!! And yes, my Happy Quilting Patterns have a new look, but they are still filled with full color - wonderful illustrations to guide you along each step of the way. You are going to have so much fun making these quilts ;) And of course, if you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to reach out to me ;)
