The quilt is made up of 12″ blocks and measures 67″ x 81″.  Each flower uses a fat eighth so it’s perfect for precut bundles!  This version is made from Farmers Daughters fabrics by Moda.  They are so relaxed and soft!  You can find the quilt pattern in my Etsy Shop.

I fell in love with this fabric line called “Something Borrowed” by Riley Blake Designs.  I had so much fun making another version of this quilt with the blue tones!  It’s going on the end of my bed!!!  I LOVE it!

The quilt uses half square triangles and there are a lot of them, but its totally worth it!

Christmas Party Quilt Pattern

christmas party quilt 9

Meet Christmas Party!  My newest quilt pattern!  I was totally inspired by a fat quarter bundle of Cotton + Steel Noel that I bought from Fat Quarter Shop!

Screen Shot 2017-11-17 at 9.50.59 AMI loved all the retro designs and the fun prints.  I designed this pattern so you could let  your favorite Christmas theme prints be the star of the quilt!!!  It’s so whimsical – just like a Christmas Party!!  The quilt measures 67″ x 77″ and uses 20 fat quarters, background yardage and border yardage.  The circle blocks measure 12″ and the swirl blocks measure 6″.

You can purchase the PDF quilt pattern in my Etsy shop and download it instantly.

You could easily change out the color scheme and go more traditional red and green – or – it would work for any holiday – or – it would be cute with your favorite new collection of fabric!!

The Good in the Good Life Quilt Pattern

In our family we have a little saying….well actually it’s song lyrics….. “You put the GOOD in the GOOD LIFE.”  I knew I had to use the Good Life fabric from Moda and I knew the quilt had to have words.  So meet my newest quilt pattern!the good life quilt 2

This whimsical quilt measures 37″ square and is perfect to hang on a wall, place on a table, or give as a gift to someone who puts “good” in your life :). The border is made entirely from charm squares, which is super fun because I collect charm packs!  It’s available in my Etsy shop as a PDF download for only $5.00!!the good life quilt pattern 2

The letters are machine appliquéd.  Yes, you have to cut them all by hand, but it’s kind of fun!  I put on a movie, sat down with my scissors, and it went by fast!the good life quilt pattern 4

I thought I would be a nerd and pose with my quilt while my 9 year old took my picture….hahah!the good life quilt pattern 7
