Introducing ZOOTROPOLIS!

Let's take a walk on the wild side!

If you follow us on Facebook or Instagram, you saw our daily introductions to the characters of Zootropolis throughout May. Zootropolis is our newest self-published book and is something a little different for us. I have always had an idea of a high rise building full of animals floating around in my mind and we finally figured out how to bring it to life. All the animals are fusible appliqué and can be set in the entire quilt or a fun pillow! We hope you experiment and play with these characters!

Free Groovy Wolf Appliqué Pattern

When I first graduated from college, I dabbled with the idea of being a graphic designer. My logo was a fun wolf head silhouette sporting a pair of sunglasses - cheeky right? I hadn’t seen or thought about this logo in years, but came across it after I my strikeoffs of Foundation fabric arrived. An idea hit me and I ran with it!

Mini Mondays - Mini Hootsville Row

This week in our Mini Monday Series features our Hootsville Row quilt pattern.

This isn’t an actual mini quilt pattern, but we have a little trick up our sleeve. Instead of miniaturizing all 9 owls from the original Hootsville Row pattern, Kristy created a few mini quilts with just one owl sitting on the branch. It is a lot less appliqué and a hoot to make! =] Puns are fun! The Hootsville Row pattern will be 20% off today and tomorrow (2/19/18 - 2/10/18 PST). Now let's chat about these “Mini” Hootsville Row!

'Tis the Season for Baby Quilts

Spring has sprung! This is one of my favorite times of the year. It is finally warm enough to dust off those shorts and frolic outdoors before it gets hot! I just spent the weekend camping and hiking around Moab, so I am feeling refreshed and invigorated creatively.

Hootsville Row Pattern Hack Pillow

Hootsville Row is a fun wall-hanging pattern that features 9 adorable owls with big peering eyes! These little guys take a little bit to trace, cut, fuse and appliqué down. So, for a quicker and still adorable option, make one owl and turn it into a pillow! That is exactly what my Mom did as a gift for her niece's birthday.

Introducing Hootsville Row!

Hootsville Row originated as a 12" block I designed a few years ago for one of Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks magazines. Hootie, as I called him, was one single owl perched on a branch with a golden full moon behind him. I decided to design a quilt around Hootie and create a whole family of owls. I love how Hootsville Row turned out!
