New Patterns Coming Soon!!!

So things have been a little quiet around here this July.  Part of that is just Summer, but a big part is that I have been working hard on some New Patterns!!!   I have teased these a bit with teaching them at Garden of Quilts, but I am excited to share that the wait is almost over!!  August 8th, all 6 of these new patterns will be released in my Etsy Shop.          

      

         

I can't wait to share them all.  They are all at the printers, and I just need to get the quilt tops quilted, so that is what I will be doing between now and the 8th :)  Thanks for your patience with me while I have been working on these.  6 at once is a lot!  

And exciting news, I will be sharing a few sneak peeks of some pattern testing before the release!!

So be sure to pop back in in the next few days, there is going to be a lot of Happy Quilting sharing in the next few weeks :) 

Jolly Tree Farm Mystery QAL - Week 5

 It's Week 5 of the Jolly Tree Farm Mystery Quilt Along hosted by Fat Quarter Shop.  All the details for this super fun mystery QAL can be found right here ;)    And here is Week 5 Release -  Finishing and you can find the free pattern here.  And isn't it just so fun to see all of these wonderful tree blocks come together!!  

This Mystery Quilt features Sherri and Chelsi's new Christmas line Pontsettia and Pear and there are still a few kits available here.  I am using a Cozy Wonderland layer cake by Fancy That Design House.   And the sashing for the blocks is super quick, and then a border and you are done.  I wanted my quilt to be a little bigger, so I added a fun border of different sized "piano keys"  I really like the way it makes the red pop in the blocks ;)        Kimberly has another fantastic You Tube turorial walking you through each step of finishing up your quilt.  

And after taking these pictures, I am thinking I could add one more border of the greens and aquas.  I just checked my scraps, and I think I have enough to make a fun HST border.  Maybe some fun diamonds or something.   So ya, I will be sharing this again soon all quilted and bound and a little bigger ;)  

And it is no longer a mystery, but you can still make this quilt.  All of the patterns are here and are free for downloading.   Happy Quilting!!

Haven Charity Quilt Along - Part 2

 Today is Part 2 of the The Haven Charity Quilt Along with Fat Quarter Shop !!    This is the 13th annual Charity Quilt Along benefitting Make a Wish.    The Haven Quilt featuires Lella Botique's new True Love fabric line and there are kits available here.  I am using the colors of the kit as an inspiration and sewing my blocks with Grunge Basics   This second release consists of two sets of blocks  sewn into this beauitful Wonderland Block and you can find the Pattern  Here.   (And yes, the pattern is free, but it is always good to Donate Here for this Charity QAL)

We started out with making these super cute Star Blocks!! And you know, I just love making Star Blocks!!!   They are so fun and fast and I just love all of the happy points!

Then it was on to making some HST blocks.  And I just love how these blocks combine with the Star Blocks to make the Wonderland Blocks.  Such a creative pattern!!! 

And now all that is left is to sew the Wonderland Blocks, and our Hideaway and Haven Star Blocks from Part 1 into the quilt top.  I can't wait to share this finish with you all ;)  YOu can still join in and  Charity Quilting Along with us!! It's oh sew much fun!! 

Jolly Tree Farm Mystery QAL - Week 4

 It's Week 4 of the Jolly Tree Farm Mystery Quilt Along hosted by Fat Quarter Shop.  All the details for this super fun mystery QAL can be found right here ;)    And here is Week 4 Release - Tree-Mendous Holiday and you can find the free pattern here.  And this tree is big enugh to be at Rockefeller Center!!  

This Mystery Quilt features Sherri and Chelsi's new Christmas line Pontsettia and Pear and there are still a few kits available here.  I am using a Cozy Wonderland layer cake by Fancy That Design House.   This weeks block had more of those red stars, I am getting so good at piecing those little guys!!     I had a lot of fun picking out random fabrics for the tree. And it went together in a snap.      Kimberly has another fantastic You Tube turorial walking you through each step of making this block.  

And there were not bonus HST's this week.  But that's okay, because I found something else fun to do.   I just felt the original tree was a little boxy, so I added some super tiny stitch and flip corners along the edges.   I love the added curves it gives ;)  

And it's not much of a mystery now that you have seen all 4 blocks.  But if you love it, you can still join in and make your own!!!   All we have left is to put the tree blocks together, so fun!! See ya next week with the quilt top finish ;)

This Mystery Quilt features Sherri and Chelsi's new Christmas line Pontsettia and Pear and there are still a few kits available here.  I am using a Cozy Wonderland layer cake by Fancy That Design House.   This weeks block was a little more piecing than last week.  I am getting really good at whipping up those little stars :)  And I had a lot of fun picking out random fabrics for the tree.  I love the pop of the low volumes.    Kimberly has another fantastic You Tube turorial walking you through each step of making this block.
