#129 Sunbonnet Sue - The Calendar Girl

This pattern features an updated version of Sunbonnet Sue with a different appliqued motif to represent each month of the year. It is a great way to use the seasonal prints in your stash! The sample is machine appliqued with a buttonhole stitch but you could hand applique it, also. Embellish with buttons, beads or specialty thread if desired!

Directions are included to make a:

#130 Criss Cross
This is an interesting cross block that I drafted to make it template free. There are four different sized blocks in this pattern so depending on the quilt block size you use, this quilt could be used as a wall quilt, table topper or a throw! The directions are written using five different fabrics, but it could easily be a scrap quilt using light, dark and medium prints.

Skill level: Intermediate
Finished block size: 6" x 6", 9" x 9", 12" x 12" or 15" x 15"
Number of pieced blocks: 9 (5 of Block A, 4 of Block B)

Using a 12" block: 55 1/2" square
 
Using a 15" block: 71" square

Cost: $8




#131 Top This!

This template free pattern features four different versions of two different sizes of quilts. Quick and easy to do using larger (than normal) pieces so it's a great project for a beginner! Directions are included to make the Large Quilt into a Christmas tree skirt (see red and green sample) where the "hole" for the tree is covered by the basket. Depending on the size of the quilt, these "toppers" can be used on different sized tables or as wallhangings.

#132 Simple Elegance
Simple Elegance only uses nine different fabrics. The quilt that is hanging uses 3 different white, ivory and beige tonal fabrics while the quilt on the rack features 9 coordinating prints. Template free plus quick and easy to piece! This is a great project for a confident beginner.

#133 Country Crossing
Country Crossing features one block sewn with coordinating fabrics in two different ways. When the blocks are sewn together, the intersection of the blocks produces an optical illusion so it looks like the blocks are on point. Template free makes this quilt go together quickly, and helps you look clever!

Skill level: Intermediate

#134 Lightning Does Strike
Lightning Does Strike was originally going to be "Zig Zag", but the week my son, Myk, who is my graphic designer was working on this pattern, his first house was struck by lightning. He and his wife, Marnie, had only been in their home less than two weeks, but they had to have their siding plus part of their roof replaced. This quilt pattern is template free using strip sets. Directions are given for using a directional border print (see inset photo) or for non-directional fabrics.

#135 Double Diamonds

Double Diamonds features the same template free block done in two different ways with coordinating fabric. I like how when the quilt blocks are sewn together that a secondary pattern emerges and the blocks look like they are on point. Quick and easy to do with accurate cutting and piecing! Great for using your scraps or charm packs, too!

#137 Squangles

What is a Squangle? It is a combination of squares and triangles of course! There are two different yet similar quilts in this pattern. The main block is the same block in both quilts yet the layout is different. Great for a baby quilt, wallhanging or table topper!

#138 The Great Outdoors

The Great Outdoors was designed to feature a fabric collection called "North by Northwest" that Lynette Jensen of Thimbleberries designed for the 2009 Northwest Quilting Expo in Portland, Oregon. The border fabric features vintage type postcards of famous landmarks in Oregon and Washington.

I designed this quilt in mind with all the things I love about the Northwest - pine trees, mountains and boating! This pattern is quite adaptable for other fabrics and colorways depending on where you live. 

This quilt features a variety of quilt block sizes, borders, and techniques:
Center block: 8" x 8"
Pinwheel blocks:
Pine tree blocks: 3" x 3" paper pieced
Sail boats: 3" x 3" pieced
Pinwheel blocks: 4" x 4" pieced
Mountains: 4" x 4" appliqued

Skill level: Intermediate 
Finished Quilt Size: 39" x 39"

Cost: $8
