We selected this scrappy colorway using the vivid Dreamy Darks and Creamy Light fabrics by Kim Diehl adding a few friends. This Little Light of Mine Quilt Kit is a beautiful showcase of the mastery and appeal of scrap quilting. The kit comes complete with all the fabric, over 50 different prints, for the top and the binding. The Quilt finishes at 74' X 92" and the pattern features 13" X 13" Rail blocks. Advanced beginners can feel confident with this one! The kit also includes the book Sisterhood of Scraps by Lissa Alexander - 12 Brilliant Quilts from 7 Fantastic Designers. Every quilt in the book comes with a story, about the maker and how the quilt came about. Stories... they're as much a part of every quilt as the fabric and thread. It's another reason we connect, every one of us loves a good story.
Going to sleep under your average, run-of-the-mill, storebought duvet feels nothing like snuggling under an artistic quilt that you or your loved one made for you. With affection. With care in every stitch. With countless hours of skill and dedication.

Hi friends, Today I am sharing another quilt made with the Modern Handcraft Palette Picks Bundle for Robert Kaufman fabrics, the Pivot quilt. The Pivot quilt is one of my first patterns, and the first of my patterns using a curve shape - many of you have told me that it was your intro into sewing with curves! This is such a versatile quilt - it looks amazing in solids, patterns, scrappy - you find a bundle of fabric, it will likely work with the Pivot quilt. I knew that I wanted to try out the palette picks bundle and this pattern and make it kind of a scrappy look against a black Essex linen, and I love how it turned out! Read along as I tell you which fabrics I used and how you can make a palette picks Pivot quilt of your own! Fabric Information: The Pivot quilt comes in 6 sizes: Baby 40

Hello, again friends and fellow quilters! I'm back with a quick post to share some of my favorite places to find FREE downloadable quilt patterns.
I was waiting for a mid-October wedding to take place before I showed you the quilt I was making for it. And now I've waited another month...for good measure? (Neighbor's tree on Sept. 30) Well, better late than never, as they say. Although the latter briefly passed through my mind, as apathetic as I appear to be toward writing anything down lately. (Same tree on Oct. 10) The inspiration for this quilt came from an image I ran across on Pinterest, unfortunately with no origin story, website, or reference as to its maker, so I don't know who to thank for it. If you recognize it, let me know so I can give proper credit. (Inspiration Quilt, Maker Unknown) I did a little doodling on graph paper to get the numbers worked out, and then set about cutting out a lot of squares from background fabric and multiple batik fat quarters, and then making roughly a bazillion half-square triangles. I ran out of room on the design wall as I was laying out the pieces, which should have been a good clue that I might have a size issue. There is a certain size I try not to exceed if I'm going to quilt something myself, which was my intention with this wedding quilt. But I forged ahead anyway, sewed it all together, and then put the quilt top on the living room floor. And that is when reality hit, ushering in a plot twist: Contact my local longarm quilter and see if there was any possibility she could quilt this wedding quilt for me within two weeks. I fully expected the answer to be a kind no, but to my surprise she said she could do it! Thank you, Sandy, for saving the day! The happy couple, my brother and his new bride, say they love it and that it now occupies a special spot on the back of the sofa. I hope they enjoy snuggling together with it in the months and years ahead!
