It’s easy to construct and reasonably within a day from start to finish! Download the June Candle Mat for free and enjoy!
The Gathered Friends
quilt is a reminder of how important those we hold dear are to us.
Built with blocks that intertwine, they have an appearance of holding
one another together as dear friends. The block is a simple 9-Patch with
half-square-triangles (HST) in the corners. The block is then set on
point with additional HSTs which create a braided look. Truly an
exercise in color placement, you will enjoy watching each block unfold
and interlock as they are sewn together.
The Moonlit Blooms
collection is an enormous cluster of color amid a sea of black. The
combination has great impact! This fusion creates the most stunning
quilts whether for a bed, lap quilt or a table runner. Posy Spray is large enough to be a table topper, lap quilt or wall hanging at 54”.
The Baroque Floral fabric from the Moonlit Blooms collection is just gorgeous, simply gorgeous. Sunset Jewels Table Runner
does a good job of framing it in and providing the space needed to
deliver a beautiful quilt. I think its voice is loud and clear! The
colors are so saturated, and the black ground gives the blooms room to
speak.
I fell in love with these adorable Pinwheel Pincushions that look like miniature tuffets and now I can’t stop making them! They are so much fun to make and imagine in all different types of fabrics.
