More Happy Quilting Patterns with a New Look!!

 Thank you so much for all of the pattern love you have shared with me!!!  I am so glad that you are loving the 3 new Happy Quilting patterns I have shared this week!! And by now, I am sure you have realized that these new patterns have a new look!!   And along with the three new patterns, 4 of my original Happy Quilting Patterns have also gotten a Make-over!!!  They are still filled with full color - wonderful illustrations to guide you along each step of the way but now have the benefit of 10 years of writting patterns :)        

 

So why the change of look . . . Frist off, it was just time for an update.   Like I said, after 10 years of writting books and patterns, I have learned a lot and it was time to incorporate that into some of my first released patterns.   Also, I am now working on getting my patterns distributed through wholesale channels so that quilt shops everywhere can find them!!!   Super exciting, (and a little scary) but mostly exciting!!!   And yesterday, I was doing the happy dance when I flipped through Moda's newest catalog to find my Happy Quilting patterns illustrating some of their new fabrics.   This has been a behind the scenes project for a bit now, and I am so exited to see it in real life now!!! 


And I will give you a hint of which pattern will be Re-Released next :)   It's in the final stages and ready to go off to the printer ;)  It's also going with a few other Re-Releases as well as a New Release too!!  So many things going on over here!!! 



So ya, totally exciting!!!   I so wish I had time to "re-make" each of these quilts as I Re-Release the patterns . . . but as you can see, things are a little busy at Happy Quilting, tee hee hee.   But, I really wanted to make a new Summer Breeze.  This was my very first pattern, and it was pre-long arm, so it was due for an update ;) So here is Summer Breeze!!! 


This version of Summer Breeze is made with the gorgeous Sunnyside Fabrics by Camille Roskelly!!!   As soon as this fabric was released, I knew it was the perfect fit for a new Summer Breeze, and you know I am all about those deep purples!!!   I actually have had the quilt done for a bit now, It just took a little longer to get all of the patterns ready to go ;) 


I had so much fun custom quilting this version of Summer Breeze!!    I did some fun Wavy Orange peel that I echoed to add more texture in the "Petals" and then a little curly q in the sashing.  I love how it really brings out the secondary designs in the quilt.   And in the border I did a lovely big feather, so fun!!! 


Summer Breeze is made with HST Units, Stitch and Flip Units, and No Waste Lattice Units.   It is a great skill builder as you learn to match up angled seams!   It really is such a fun quilt to make and is a stunning finish perfect for any occasion.  I want to make a Christmas Version next.  Wouldn't that be just so festive :)  


And that is my new Summer Breeze quilt and Re-Released Pattern!!! Again, you still get all of the things you loved about Happy Quilting Patterns with this new Re-Releases and then some added technical writting goodness that I have picked up over the years.
