Collaboration with Clothworks

Awhile back, Clothworks and Sassafras Lane teamed up. Well, in all fairness, they do all the work! They asked if we would be interested in sharing our quilt designs to be mocked up in their upcoming fabric lines to help the sales reps sell the fabric.

Working on Big Projects in Small(er) Spaces

2014 is officially here, and with it came a few deadlines! First up, a fun quilt I designed that will appear in Quiltmaker this Spring. It is a twin size quilt and the first large project I have worked on in this new home, so I thought I would share some tips for making large projects in small spaces.

We had the wonderful opportunity to make a quilt to display in Monaluna's booth at Quilt Market in Houston. This Wiley Way features Meadow, Jennifer's newest line. These fabrics are all organic and incredibly soft, not to mention adorable!

Our Wiley Way pattern has a fun design option that allows you to focus on five fabrics instead of nine. The background zigs between the five focus fabrics creating a fun and stunning visual.

Today I am sharing a fun version of our Wiley Way pattern made up in Hoffman's new batiks! I love how the color sweeps from light green down to purple. This is a slight variation from our original pattern. I used two different background fabrics instead of just one.

The final new pattern we will be showing at Market is finally ready for the public eye!! Woot woot! (Insert happy dance here!) This pattern is quick, easy and fun! We have already made several of them, 11 to be exact! (Don't worry, we will share them too!)

We have some amazing friends. They are always there to help! Whether we need proof-readers (always!), patterns tested or an actual quilt made, someone is always there! We bit off a lot for our first Market and a few friends offered to help us make some quilts we promised.

Triangles, triangles, triangles. Triangles seem to be a crowd favorite in the quilting world these days. Today I am going to demonstrate how to successfully cut 60º triangles.
