Zoey's Zoo in Bright Batiks
Hello little lion! One of our family traditions is to make all our family and friends a baby quilt to welcome their new ones into the world. My Mom made this Zoey's Zoo quilt for our family friend's new baby girl, Rowan!
Wynkoop Court in Sunday Morning
Today we are sharing another version of our Wynkoop Court made with Dear Stella fabrics. This one screams Spring time and was made up in Sunday Morning fabrics.
Wynkoop Court in Urban Zoologie
Lions and tigers and bears! Oh my! -- Just kidding! Although there are lions =] There are also cows, flamingos, monkeys, giraffes, owls, alligators, ladybugs, frogs, pigs, turtles, bunnies, whales, elephants, hippos and foxes!
Ben Darby's Lullaby Lane Quilts!
I know I have said this, but I can't help saying it again! We LOVE seeing your creations. Everyone has their favorite color schemes and individual styles. Seeing your spin on our patterns keeps us in the studio designing!
Adding Prints to the Diamond Detour
The cover quilt of the Diamond Detour is all about solids, so today we are going to focus on adding prints to the quilt. The Diamond Detour is a great way to show off your favorite prints. We have two examples today that are completely different! One features different prints in the pieced diamonds and the other features one busy print as the background.
George the Bear
Meet George the bear, one of the newest additions to the Zoey's Zoo bunch! My Mom made and quilted this adorable bear for our neighbor's newest grandson. My mom used two tone-on-tone browns for the bear, a turquoise chevron for the background, a lime for the churndash, a grey dot for the background and assorted lime, aqua and teal scraps for behind the letters.

Shivaun Place in Tonga Batiks
Occasionally we get to make digital quilts for fabric companies, combining our patterns and their brand new fabric. These digital quilts get printed onto sales sheets and travel around with sales reps. It is a great way to show the new fabric and give our patterns some exposure.
Churndash Court in Zig Zags
We have one last project from the Dear Stella Design booth at Quilt Market to share. This is our Churndash Court made in Zig Zags. We used the entire line of zig zags except white, gray, black and navy. We added a few Confetti Dots to fill in the color: cantaloupe, lime and delft. The quilt finishes 36" x 36"; the perfect size for a wall-hanging or baby quilt.
Euclid Avenue in Lazy Day
We have another project that hung in the Riley Blake booth at Quilt Market to share with you today! This is our Euclid Avenue made using the Lazy Day fabric line. We made the "tall" size which finishes 40" x 48". It is the perfect size for a baby or crib quilt.
