  • A Decorating "Hug"
    Quilts are a decorating palette of color, texture, and comfort. They add so much to your home decor. Not only do people notice the wonderful patterns, but they have a very "inviting" feeling. You almost want to curl up with a good book, and place that cover across your legs, and be whisked away to far away places and great adventures.

    Quilts are not only to be used on beds, or chairs. They have come into their own as coverings for tables, trunks, and other areas that need a touch of "special." You can use the many colors in a quilt to highlight a room, bring out other features, or to contrast and give a great visual effect.

    When you purchase a quilt, they can be hand-made, or machine-made. They are pieced together or squares of different patterns, or textures are sewed together for a certain effect. Whatever quilts you choose, they can be utilitarian besides beautiful. they are pefect for a light cover for a short nap, to enjoy by a roaring fire, or to cover a sleeping baby on your lap. Quilts are really just the touch for so many opportunities to provide comfort and decoration.

    There is a vast price range when you purchase a quilt. Some of these masterpieces take months or even years to put together, while otehrs are gifts from relatives or friends that decided to make you something that would bring you a lot of enjoyment. Whether they are picture-perfect, a memento of generations past, or an attempt by a love one to create something unique and different as a gift or token of appreciation and affection, by all means use them in your decorating scheme. People will notice them and they add a feeling of "come sit a while and let's relax" to your home.

    You might notice that people choose the chair or table near the quilt and finger the thread and texture lovingly. Its friendship and hospitality all brought together with needle and thread, a lot of creativity and imagination, and no matter where you purchase your quilt, they are made by someone who loves what they do and wants to share a "welcome" to whoever purchases their work.

    So invest in quilts and add that very special decorating item to your home - you'll be amazed at the many uses you will find for it and the many times you find yourself using its wonderful "hugging" effect.
    ENJOY!

    Floating Nine Patch Baby Quilt Pattern

    Floating Nine Patch is a baby quilt sewn from a combination of Snowball and Nine Patch quilt blocks. Blocks are placed on point, with patchwork setting and corner triangles filling in the gaps at the ends of diagonal rows. I wanted the nine patches to pop out just a bit, but you could either make them pop even more, or put focus on other elements -- it's all about your color and color value choices.

    Antique Tile Quilt Block Pattern

    The Antique Tile quilt block pattern is an easy block to cut and sew, with patch edges that are all cut on the fabric's straight grain. The instructions show you how to strip piece two of the units, but include cutting specs for those of you who prefer to make the block one piece at a time.

    Album Star Quilt Block Pattern

    Album Star was one of the patchwork quilt blocks used in the Scrap Happy Sampler quilt. I love the many possibilities this design offers for color placement, and more importantly, color value variations.

    I've included a 'blank' schematic of the block on page 3 of the pattern, so if you aren't sure which colors and values you'll like best, print it out and play around with the layout. You might even end up making an entire batch of these blocks.

    Picnic Time Quilt Block Pattern

    Picnic Time is based on a traditional quilt block that's very pretty, but has lots of set-in seams that make it more suitable for hand piecing than for assembly with rotary cutting techniques. I divided a couple of the original block's patchwork areas to make this new version a cinch to sew.

    You can dramatically change the looks of this quilt block by altering color value within its patches. It's a good choice for a scrap quilt, but works as well when all blocks are identical. If you don't want to make a large quilt, try using Picnic Time to sew a table runner and sew them in pairs to create placemats. The block finishes at 14" x 14".

    Patchwork Table Runner Pattern

    This colorful table runner is made from four 10" square blocks placed on point and surrounded by setting and corner triangles. Two borders finish the layout, one cut from narrow green strips and the other from wider pieces of a floral -- both areas repeat fabrics used in the quilt blocks. The runner finishes at about 22-1/2" x 65", but you can easily change its length or width.

    The table runner shown was designed with a Christmas theme -- just choose different fabrics to change its appearance.

    Flying Dutchman Quilt Block with No-Waste Flying Geese

    Make the Flying Dutchman quilt block with any combination of fabrics you desire. Try holiday prints, and sew a group of four or six blocks to make a wallhanging. Or sew a string of them together to create a quick table runner. We'll use a simple no-waste Flying Geese method to construct the block.

    Which Way Do We Go? a Strippy Set Quilt Pattern

    I designed this quilt to work with a brightly colored Alexander Henry border print that was passed along to me after the death of my sister, Carol. It took me awhile to decide how to use the print, but this strippy-set quilt seemed to do the trick -- and it's a quilt that most everyone has enjoyed. Read through the pattern a few times before you begin making the quilt, just to make sure you understand the steps, and assemble a few of the Winged Square blocks before you make the units for all of them -- in case you need to make sewing adjustments... Which Way Do We Go? pattern

    PS - If you like the Winged Square blocks used in the quilt, be sure to take a look at one of my Table Runner patterns. It's made with a larger version of the same block.

    Missouri Puzzle Quilt Pattern

    I'm from Missouri, so I wanted to write a pattern that shows off one of the blocks named to commemorate the state. The Missouri Puzzle quilt is square, with sashing and cornerstones between blocks. The blocks finish at 11-1/4" square and the quilt itself is about 66" x 66". Change the layout to suit your needs by making more quilt blocks or turning the layout into a rectangle. Or how about putting four blocks together for a matching throw pillow cover?

    Twinkling Star Quilt Block Pattern

    The Twinkling Star quilt block finishes at 12-inches square. There are lots and lots of little half square triangle units in the design -- just take it slowly and follow my advice on assembling them oversize and then cutting back to the exact dimensions. The little units provide the perfect opportunity to use your smaller leftover pieces of fabric (and for going super scrappy with this quilt block). The block was one of twelve used in the Scrap Happy Sampler quilt.

    Watercolor Quilt Pattern

    The three kitty cats in this quilt are peering through watercolor-style floral windows, and you can bet they're keeping an eye on the butterflies flying around the garden. This quilt pattern has been a popular pattern with readers, and although it does have set-in seams at the mitered frames, it is not difficult to assemble. If you're not a feline fan, place something else on the windowsills.
