June Sew Sampler!!!

Well summer is just flying by as per usual.   But at least I get to stop and enjoy my  Sew Sampler Box for last month.  The theme was The Sweetest Peach for June and it is just such an awesome month of quilty goodness!!!  I just squealed with delight when I opened it :)  


I was so excited for this Jelly & Jam Honey Bun by Fig Tree Quilts for Moda.   I just love Fig Tree Fabrics, the colors are just so happy and the prints are so vintage!!   Just such a pretty combo.   And how fun is that Peach Preserve Quilt Pattern!!!   Anything with 1 1/2" strips is just so much fun to make!! 


And the notions for this month are just awesome!!!   I always love a new ruler, (I like to collect them on my peg board) and this 60 Degree Tiny Diamon Ruler is just so cute!!!   I made this Vintage Windmill quilt with Krista Moser's 60 Degree Diamond Ruler, so the Tiny one will just be that much more fun!!!   And I am so excited for the Little House Glass Head Pins!!!  I love my Glass Head pins and both of my sets got misplaced on the cruise, so I am just thrilled to have these to replace them ;)    And always yes to Schmetz Needles!!!   



And a new month means another Pieceful Basket block.    I am going outside the box for me and using a Kona Lime Background, and a Milk and Honey bundle ,  Isn't this little Nine Patch Block resting in a basket  just so happy!!! 



And that is June Sew Sampler Box.

  And with the way this summer is going, all I have to do is blink and the July one will be arriving at my door ;)  Gotta love Crazy Busy ;)  

Happy Quilting!!!

Petal Pop and more Happy Quilting Patterns!!

 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!! Along with the three new patterns, 3 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 :)         



 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 Petal Pop quilt as I changed up the pattern a bit.   So here is the new Petal Pop!!! 


This version of Petal Pop is made with the gorgeous Kindred Fabrics by 1Canoe2 for Moda that is releasing any day now!!!   I just love the beautiful spring colors and stunning florals of this line, it was perfect for making my petals just pop!!!   I actually have had the quilt done for a bit and taught it in Texas in May, 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 Petal Pop    The original Petal Pop was done for a magazine and it was before I had a longarm and I sent it out to be quilted.   So I was super excited to  tackle this monster sized quilt.   I did loose feathers in the background, daisies in the center, figure 8's down the sides, and feathers in the petals.  I think it just came together so beautifully and I love all of the yummy texture!! 


Petal Pop is made with a cool pieced log cabin technique. Trust me, the block isn't necessarily where you think it is, but it is way easier than it looks.     It is a great quilt for beginners and experts alike and   really is such a fun quilt to make.  And as you can see, you wind up with a fantastic finish  :)  


And that is my new Petal Pop 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.  
    

So are you ready to get Happy Quilting???  Pop over to my Etsy Shop, to pick up your Patterns.   Again, all 6 new PDF Patterns are just $5.50, and the 6 new Paper Patterns are $7.00,  until July 2nd :)     Always good to save on shipping!!   And if you are looking at making Blossoming Stars or Flower Child, be sure and pick up your Modified Drunkards Path template set as well for all of that awesome curved piecing!




 And when you finish your  Happy Quilting Quilts I would love to see them!!!  You can email me a picture at happyquiltingmelissa@gmail.com or add it to social media with  #happyquiltingwithmc ;)  I can't wait to see your Happy Quilting Quilts!!!

Thanks again for all of the New Pattern Love!!! I can't wait to share the new Happy Quilting Patterns that are in the works . . .Coming Soon(ish) :)

I hope you all have a Happy Quilting Day!!!
