Blending modern and traditional elements in easy, original patterns!

Playing with background fabrics is a lot of fun! This colorful polka dot looks like a soft grey until you get up close and personal. Bright spots of color are also prints that "read solid" in photos. It was a daring combo pulled from stash but it worked for me!⁣
⁣
Do you combine unusual fabric choices or stick to tried and true combos you love?⁣

My #Alpine pattern is gorgeous in soft greys and shades of turquoise, but I'm currently working on a scrappy version just for fun!⁣

Do you prefer using color coordinated yardage or wild and fun scraps?⁣

Today I ran into quilty friends from the @quiltgui

Today I ran into quilty friends from the @quiltguildofgreaterhouston at their "Joy of Quilts" show. They shared this pic of the #OOPs! workshop finish by @debbiehiarker with me and wow, doesn't it look terrific? I love the layout!⁣
⁣
Kudos to all the creators who filled the quilt show with such beautiful designs! It was a great way to spend part of my day! It's at the Stafford Center through tomorrow. Don't miss it!⁣

This #Ambrosia version of my #OOPs! pattern is so soft and pretty! It features just one @hoffmanfabrics #cracker pack of 10" precuts (BC-733-Ambrosia) plus a little coordinating yardage for sashing and borders. It's one of my favorites!⁣
⁣
Designed in #eq8 from @theelectricquiltcompany and the pattern is available at your favorite local quilt shop (wholesale inquires welcome) and in my webstore. ⁣

I recently started glue basting my binding miters before hand stitching. What a game changer for easy peasy accurate folds with no pins or clips required!

How are you turning the corners on your project bindings?

I'm working on a scrappy version of my Shining Bright pattern. Scrap quilting is challenging for me, so I have to really commit to "if it doesn't match the fabric next to it, just sew it on" mentality. Even if I cringe at an individual unit or block, the end result of a project made this way is always beautiful and satisfying. ⁣

Still on my list to mimic is this gorgeous, scrappy version of my #Navigation pattern made by pattern-tester @lettyb503.

Sure...there is a lot of creativity, inspiration, sewing and fun at a #quiltretreat, but the very best part is gathering with friends. These people are amazing...each one in their own unique way and as a group, they are an unstoppable bunch of the highest quality humans I could ever hope to hang out with. Thank you, everyone, for making our retreat time so special!⁣

Quilt retreats are about quilting but also about food, friendship, laughter and sometimes a rollicking game of Left-Right-Center for fat quarters or cash!
