Crossing Paths - New Happy Quilting Pattern!!!

 I am super excited to share another new pattern and quilts today!!!   Here is Crossing Paths!!! This is another one that I taught at Garden of Quilts two weeks ago, and it was so great to watch everyone's blocks come together.  I can tell, this is going to be such a fun class to teach for the next little bit :)  


The  Crossing Paths Pattern can be found in my Etsy Shop in both a Paper version as well as a PDF version.  And it is on Special for it's release with PDF Patterns at $5.50 and the Paper Patterns are $7.00!  The patterns are full color and the paper version is in book format.  


 Crossing Paths is such a fun quilt to make!  If you didn't notice, a lot of this quilt "floats" so there are only a few spots where you actually have to watch your points lining up, making it great for beginners, and experts will also have fun with it as well!!     The quilt is made with No Waste Flying Geese, Stitch and Flip Corners, Square in a Square Units, and basic piecing so it really comes together quick.  The cornerstones set the blocks off perfectly and make some fun secondary patterns as well ;) 


This version of  Crossing Paths is made with Nutmeg by BasicGrey for Moda Fabrics! I just love these beautiful Fall colors and seasonal prints, and now this is finished just in time to welcome Fall!!!  And of course, the sky is the limit on which fabrics you make it from, it was so fun to see everyone's fabric choices for Garden of Quilts!!!  The quilt is Fat Quarter Friendly, so you can Grab a Bundle and get cutting!!!  


I quilted this version of  Crossing Paths with something a little new.  I did my favorite loose feathers design, but rather then just doing them "all over" I did them in back and forth lines.   I think it turned out so cute, almost looks like ivy growing across the quilt!!   I just love it and will be quilting this design again for sure ;)


And after I got the big Queen/King quilted . . . I just couldn't help but make a Baby size  Crossing Paths !!!   I used low volume fat quarters from Songbook a New Page  and set them off on the beautiful Eggplant solid.   Isn't that just so fun, and a great way to use up some more Low Volumes!!! 


I quilted the baby size in an all over wavy crosshatch design.  It was a little crazy to figure out at first how to sew these long diagonal lines on the longarm, but I am super happy with how it turned out.   It just adds so much texture!!!


And if you are like me, and want to make multiple sizes, you can find the sizes that work just right for you!!!  The pattern has 5 size options :  Baby, Lap, Twin, Picnic, and Queen/King.  So now you can make all the sizes :)  


And that is my new  Crossing Paths quilts 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 ;)       
    
  

So are you ready to start making your Crossing Paths Quilts???  Pop over to my Etsy Shop, to pick up your Patterns.   Again, PDF Patterns are just $5.50, the Paper Patterns are $7.00,  until October 2nd :)    And while you are there, check out these other newly released and re-released patterns that are also on the same special ;)  Always good to save on shipping!!
