Guess what? A NEW pattern is coming later this month! 

This is my fabric pull for Prairie Memories, my newest quilt pattern, releasing September 30th!

I’m using Charming One by @sharonhollanddesigns for @artgalleryfabrics and I couldn’t love this collection more. The warm, cozy colors and beautiful prints are perfect for any time of year.

Even more special, the colors and prints bring back memories of reading a beloved series of books with my daughter when she was little. There’s just something about certain colors, fabrics, and stories that can take you right back to a special time. 

I can’t wait to show you how these beautiful fabrics come together in Prairie Memories!

Do you have a favorite fabric collection that brings back a special memory?

I can’t believe it! 

I received the loveliest package in the mail filled with the most beautiful fabric from @amysinibaldi, and I couldn’t be more excited! Her latest collection, Minimo with @artgalleryfabrics, is absolutely amazing.

What makes this extra special is that I’ve been a fan of Amy’s work for a long time.  I first discovered her fabric while searching online years ago, and I’ve loved following her ever since.

So, to receive fabric from her newest collection feels pretty special. I can’t wait to ger started on a project for these beautiful fabrics!

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.

Patterns: Booked for the Holidays and Pixel Flurries. Head to my bio for links to both patterns.
