NEW Pattern – Paducah Peony Tablerunner

I have a new tablerunner pattern for you called Paducah Peony. This little runner has 3 striking blocks with four shades of color to add depth and interest. This little pattern came about because of a special request.

The National Quilt Museum in Paducah, Kentucky holds a Raffle fund raiser for the museum. This year is the 35th anniversary for the raffle. As a Paducah Quilt Week Instructor, I was asked to provide some goodies for it. As part of that, I designed and created this table runner. Imagine my surprise to see it as the backdrop for the raffle. You can get more information on the NQM Anniversary Raffle HERE.

This table runner is sized at 12 1/2″ x 37 1/2″. It stitches up so nicely. You sew it together in sections and join it to the center diamond using the partial seam method in the instructions. The pattern includes cutting information for BOTH traditional rotary cutting and AccuQuilt Die Cutting.

For the AccuQuilt Die Cutting, I used shapes from the 12″ and the 6″ GO! Qube die sets.

I also made the table runner in a Peach color way. I used my Bernina 770 with embroidery unit and large Magnetic hoop and I quilted it with a feathery motif.

Electric Quilt

I designed this beauty with EQ8 Quilt design software from Electric Quilt. It is so easy to design creative projects and then cut them out with Rotary Cutting or use my AccuQuilt dies.

The pattern is now available for purchase in my Etsy Shop.

    New Pattern: Summer Harvest Quilt

    My next pattern is ready for Sale!  Summer Harvest is a super easy Throw Quilt made from 9 1/2″ quilt blocks.  It will be the perfect project for a beginning quilter this summer.

    It uses precut 10 inch squares so you can break open that fabulous pile of fabric you have been waiting to use.  It lends itself to any season, but these bright Malka Dubrowski prints really pop with the colors of the farmer’s market in summer.

    This quilts was originally featured on the cover of Quick to Stitch Precuts Magazine in 2015, but now it is available as a PDF download.

    The pattern is super easy and the precut 10 inch blocks and assembly instructions let you easily strip piece the blocks in a hurry.

    You create these leaf style blocks and sew them together in rows and columns.

    Here is the quilt top all pieces and ready for pin basting.

    This was my original Electric Quilt 7 design, but I decided to add some narrow sashing between the columns to set off the bright fabrics.

    I even used the scraps cut from the corners to piece the backing for this quilt.  A great way to use the leftovers.

    I also quilted this throw with my Bernina 630 and some free motion quilting.  I used a cute leave motif for each block.

    I hope you have as much fun making this quilt as I did!
