Well so much for my “A Blog Post A Day” goal! But, I am back with a new post today to introduce this show stopping mini quilt pattern. Mini Bourbon Street is the shrunken version of our popular Bourbon Street Pattern. This is a fun way to use the tiny scraps you’ve been saving. Now, let’s get to the nitty gritty!

This mini pattern might look familiar to you. I originally designed the Sweary Seam Ripper as enamel pin and sticker, but couldn’t help myself and turned into an appliquéd mini quilt! So without further ado, I would like to officially introduce the Sweary Seam Ripper Mini Quilt Pattern.

Mini quilts are some of my favorite things to make! They small, they are cute and they are hold as much punch as their bigger counterparts! Today is all about the adorable Mini Kingston Court quilt pattern. The colorful cutie is definitely one of my current favorite makes, so let’s get into the details.

It is has been a long time since I have written a blog post! I could argue that I have been to busy or make any number of excuses, but the truth is I just kind of forgot about this whole form of communication. (And I have been a little busy! Moved states, vended at a few retail shows, launched lots of new products, etc. 😉) My last post was last Fall… 2024. I know, awful! So, I am going to try to dig into the archives of my mind and photos app to play the ultimate game of catch-up. I am challenging myself with One Blog Post a Day until I am caught up. Wish me luck!

Now that the days officially getting longer and we are getting a little glimpse of the Summer season coming up, it is time to share some of the projects we made with Summer Lovin’. By now the line has officially shipped out to stores and you have seen all the gorgeous projects our talented quilty friends have made, so I think it is our time!

This one of my favorite parts about designing a fabric line. All the “work” is done and we finally get to chop it up into pieces and make things out of it! I always have visions of how the fabric is going to look in projects and rarely am I correct. But, that adds to the fun!
