New Quilt Pattern: Just Peachy - a jelly roll quilt

Hello fellow quilters! Today there is a new pattern in my shop to share, and oh my goodness! Just Peachy is so fresh and full of scrappy goodness!


Grab your nearest jelly roll or a bunch of scraps, add a bit of background/accent fabric, and get to stitching. Just Peachy is a fast, fun quilt pattern to make that I think quilters of all stages will enjoy.


Just Peachy is a precut friendly quilt pattern written for jelly rolls or scraps and offers 6 sizes:
Baby 40" x 56"
Throw 56" x 56"
Twin 56" x 72"
Full 72" x 88"
Queen 88" x 104"
King 104" x 104"


My sample quilt features the lovely fabric line Abide from Moda Fabrics. The prints and muted tones are soft, fresh, and oh so pretty.


I used strip piecing for my Just Peachy quilt, but traditional piecing instructions are included as well.


Either way you, you are going to finish up a scrappy, cuddly quilt.

My batting of choice was Hobbs Tuscany cotton/wool blend. I have come to love this batting in my warmer weather quits - a bit of fluff from the wool and old-fashioned crinkly goodness with the cotton.


Isn't she pretty?! I think this picture best represents the colors of Abide - fresh and clean with a vintage vibe. Love it!


The longarm edge-to-edge quilting pantograph Chantilly Lace added just the perfect delicate, lacy touch. It was my first time using this E2E quilting panto and it stitched out like a dream with Superior Threads SoFine thread.


Just Peachy is available in my shop with two options - Printed-Mailed-to-you or Digital-PDF-Download.

Happy quilting, everyone!

New Quilt Pattern: Stony Steps


Want to make a simple yet gorgeous quilt? Pick out two of your favorite prints, toss in some background, grab a copy of my newest pattern Stony Steps, and you are all set to make one gorgeous quilt.


My version of Stony Steps is made with two of my favorite green prints from Abide (by Brenda Riddle for Moda Fabrics - love the serene, peaceful feel of this fabric line).


It turned out so serene and cuddly with Shannon Minky Cuddle backing and Hobbs Tuscany cotton/wool batting - so so cuddly!!!


Pictures truly do not do this quilt any justice. I tried so hard to capture the peaceful serene feeling it gives. This pic here is the most accurate for portraying the Abide green prints.

 Found the perfect longarm edge-to-edge quilting pantograph - Flirtatious Leaves found at Urban Elementz. It mimics the little leaf print and adds to the graceful, calm feel of the entire quilt.


Stony Steps is written with seven (yes, 7!) sizes:
Square - 63" x 63"
Throw - 63" x 72"
Long throw - 63" x 81"
Twin - 72" x 81"
Full - 81" x 99"
Queen - 99" x 99"
King - 117" x 117"


Lovely quilty texture for days!


Available in my shop in digital format and printed/mailed format.


My long throw size of the Stony Steps quilt pattern.
Currently dreaming of of a red, white and blue version. 
Maybe with the Independence Day fabric from Sweetwater/Moda Fabrics.

Happy quilting, everyone!

New Quilt Pattern: Quickly Done - Winter Friends

 

Using my collection of Winter Friends (by Deb Strain for Moda Fabrics) warm neutrals + a bit of red snowflakes, I made up this sample of Quickly Done, a layer cake pattern.

When you want an uber quick layer cake quilt pattern with very little matching and no sashing, Quickly Done is the pattern for you.

I must admit I was a bit apprehensive that it might be too plain, but it's not (IMO : ). I absolutely love how it turned out.

Ran short on fabric so made a couple of four patches to substitute for the layer cake/10-inch squares 


Can you see the squishiness? The wool batting + Cuddle backing (first time Cuddle user here) make the most luxurious cuddly quilt ever!!!


The longarm edge-to-edge quilting is the simple pantograph Loopy Snowflakes from Sew Shabby. 
Love her quilting pantos. They always stitch out so smoothly.


Go ahead. Reach in there and give this quilt a squeeze. You know you want to : )
I think all our winter quilts from here henceforth need Cuddle minky backings and wool batting.


The Quickly Done quilt pattern is written with five sizes -
Baby 50" x 50"
Throw 63" x 75"
Twin 75" x 100"
Queen 100" x 113"
King 113" x 113"

And includes instructions for layer cake/10" squares or yardage.

Available in paper or digital format in my shop.

Happy quilting, everyone!
