Flower Chain Quilt

In 1825, 14-year-old Jane Valentine started an Irish Chain quilt. Five years and 10,092 blocks later, her quilt was finally complete.

According to the National Museum of American History, Jane used 130 different cotton prints and a plain white background that is quilted “6 stitches per inch with a flower motif.”

(Keep in mind, every one of those tiny stitches was done by hand. No wonder it took 5 years!)

This week Jenny whipped up a new version of the Irish Chain based on our quick and easy Irish Change pattern. The addition of a sweet little flower block makes this Flower Chain quilt an absolute beauty!

Bow Tie Crisscross Quilt

Break out the sequins and polish up your best cuff links! We’re going black tie and feelin’ el-e-gant!

Our new Bow Tie Crisscross is a clever take on the classic bow tie block. Jenny used sleek shades of black and white, but this quilt would look grand with any fabric you choose! Click HERE to watch the tutorial!

Kindred Pinwheels

I grew up loving Anne of Green Gables. Even now, Anne’s wisdom follows me wherever I go.

“Tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it.”
“I went looking for my dreams outside of myself and discovered, it’s not what the world holds for you, it’s what you bring to it.”

Today’s new quilt, Kindred Pinwheels, is a beautiful pattern brought to life by Anne of Green Gables fabric by Riley Blake Designs. Click HERE to watch the tutorial!

Christmas already? Here is a fun pattern that is easy and great for gifts!

Earlier this week on facebook we were talking about whether or not we had started our Christmas gifts. I for one, have not started mine….I know the drill though. I’ll procrastinate {cause I’m so busy *whine*whine} and by November I’ll freak out and go into crazy-lady-Christmas mode! This year I declare will be different! Right here, right now {you are all my witness} I will be better! I’m going to start early and enjoy my way through the season! {can’t believe I’m even talking about this now! It’s still July! Sheesh!!!} 🙂

Starting with this little number from Sandy Gervais! Seriously, isn’t this darling!?!? The pattern is called ‘The tallest tree’ and only uses one charm pack!

100_3408 — I couldn’t wait to show this to you! It’s not even bound yet. I love it that much!!

I LOVE-LOVE-LOVE this Christmas line from Sweetwater! It’s called ‘Countdown to Christmas‘ and it is by far my favorite this year! So, if you have Christmas gifts on the brain and want to get an early start this is a fun pattern {project} that you will enjoy! Heck, you might make one and decide to make one for everyone on your list! {they are that cute, you know!!}

Hope you have a great weekend! I’ll be back on Monday!
