New Cover Girls... or Quilts!
We updated two of our favorite patterns - Prism Parkway and Lexington Lane. I love these two quilts. They are both versatile, geometric and fun! Each pattern got a refresher on the inside - nothing major, just some cosmetic changes. And both patterns got a new cover quilt!
Charleston by Revive - Blog Tour
Welcome Blog Hoppers! Timeless Treasures has a neat new division that is breathing new life into the textile designs of our past, called Revive. Their debut collection is inspired by all the sass and geometry of the lively Art Deco era. When I studied architecture my favorite time period was the 1920's and 1930's, so this line really is a knockout for me! It was a time of bold colors, lavish ornamentation and fabulous flapper dresses.
Hello 2015!

Digital Quilts in Timeless Treasures Fabrics
One of the fun parts of designing quilt patterns is mocking them up in lots of different options! Timeless Treasures send their new lines out to designers to get a few quilt mockups made. It is a great way to get an idea of how the fabric looks in use!
Project Round-Up!
We have said it before and we will ay it again, our all-time favorite thing about being a pattern designer, is seeing your versions of our patterns! Seeing the different color choices and your creative twists makes our job completely worth it! Here are a few projects that have popped on to my radar from Instagram and Facebook.
Bugsy's Lexington Lane Quilt
We made this bed size Lexington Lane quilt over a year ago and failed to get any good photos! My little sister quickly claimed this one for her college bed and away it went. We all got together in Spokane this last week and I asked her to bring it to shoot a few photos.
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.
Bye Bye 2013, Hello 2014!
I had a good feeling about 2013 and it did not let me down! It was a crazy, busy, beautiful and adventurous year. Here are some of our favorites from 2013!
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas! We are actually in San Diego spending the day at zoo with our entire family =] It is my little sister's goal in life to see pandas, so San Diego was a little surprise for her. I hope everyone is having a blast watching their kids tear paper off their gifts and eating twelve too many cookies!
Quilt Market in Houston - Our Booth!
So we are back in Colorado with lots to do and smiles on our faces. Our first Quilt Market could not have gone better! We made lots of contacts, met so many wonderful people and had a blast. Our feet are a little tired, but it was so worth it!
