I need help!
Quilt holding is hard work! This is exactly why I make the quilts… and take the photos.
Quilt holders have a tough job, and mine definitely deserve a little appreciation! Thank you to my amazing quilt holders for always doing such a great job! @edelweissillustration and @kbarthel16.

Have you seen this?!
Booked for the Holidays in @artgalleryfabrics Pure Solids!
I love how using solid fabrics gives Booked for the Holidays a fresh, crisp look while allowing the design to take center stage.
It’s still all the cozy, bookish holiday vibes—but with a fresh, modern feel.

A winter quilt you’ll want to keep out all season long.
Pixel Flurries combines simple, log cabin like blocks with a little bit of winter magic.

Whether you’re making a little winter accent or a quilt to snuggle under, there’s a size for you!
Pixel Flurries is designed with easy-to-follow instructions, making it a fun project for confident beginners and experienced quilters alike.
Pull your favorite winter prints, add some snowflakes, and let the quilting begin!

Something you might not know…
The photos of these quilts were taken on a 107° day!
I still remember my husband and me hauling these big, heavy quilts around in the blazing heat. We were both sweating and wondering whose idea it was to photograph cozy Christmas quilts in the middle of summer. The things I ask my husband to do for quilty content!
But before long, the weather will change. The leaves will turn, the air will get crisp, and hopefully a blanket of snow will cover the ground. We’ll be curled up inside with a good book, a warm drink, and cozy quilts wrapped around us.
Those are the days I’m already looking forward to.
If you haven’t picked up your Booked for the Holidays and Pixel Flurries patterns yet, now is the perfect time. Start sewing today, and by the time the leaves begin to fall, you’ll have two beautiful quilts ready to make the season even cozier.
