Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Thursday! I hope you all are having a lovely day. Chilly, gloomy, mid-November day… but it’s almost the weekend! ;)

 

Time for this week’s Thankful Thursday! Today we are featuring a couple of projects we had sewn for our Fall Quilt Market booth. One of our favorite quilters, and fellow Montrealer, Stephanie Baldwin quilted one quilt and sewed two bags for our booth. And, as always, Stephanie did an a-MAZ-ing job. The two bags were done with our new Flourish by Ciana Bodini collection, a gorgeous green and pink floral collection. The first is the Sienna Tote by  lbg studio. We chose the darker floral for the body, which contrasted nicely with the mint green gingham handles and bottom. The other bag is the Della Wallet Clutch by Swoon Patterns. We love how pretty this clutch came out, and would make for a perfect Christmas gift!

As well, Stephanie quilted our Cracker Lattice Quilt with our With Love by Jack!e McFee collection. We had never seen the physical version of the quilt, so we were especially excited to see this one. The pink and tan heart & floral prints worked wonderfully in this quilt design… we always love Stephanie’s quilting! It was the perfect backdrop to our With Love section.

Hi everyone,

 

 

 

 

Happy Thursday! We hope everyone is having a lovely day so far. We are hosting another Winsday this week and are giving away our Beyond the Backyard FQB AND 2 Westcott Cutting Tools on our Facebook Page. Be sure to enter if you haven’t yet HERE!

 

It’s also time for this week’s Thankful Thursday! Today we are featuring one of our incredible pattern designers, Cheryl Brickey of Meadow Mist Designs. Cheryl Brickey is a chemical engineer/patent agent by day and a quilter by night. Quilting and creating patterns involve a lot of technical skill, which in turn was the perfect hobby for Cheryl who also has a passion for sewing and fabrics. As a creative outlet, Cheryl was able to use her technical writing background to create her own quilting patterns as a pattern designer. Cheryl started her pattern company,  Meadow Mist Designs, to sell her patterns on Etsy. Since then, her success in the quilting world has grown immensely. Her quilts have been featured in quilt magazines, blogs, and her patterns are very popular!

We had the privilege of working with Cheryl as one of our pattern designers for our Free Projects Program. Cheryl created the Cracker Lattice Quilt for us, which is a stunning, geometric quilt design that reflects her technical and engineering background perfectly.  This modern quilt pattern features a lovely double lattice design with triangle and diamond elements and its simplicity works so well with a multitude of colors and fabrics, such as our Botanical by Alisse Courter Collection. We absolutely love the versatility of this modern quilt! You can find the pattern for Cracker Lattice here.

 

We want to thank Cheryl for creating such a stunning quilt design for us, and for the wonderful partnership. We cannot wait for what’s still to come. You can find the free PDF of our Cracker Lattice Quilt on our website. As well, be sure to check out more from Cheryl on her blog, Etsy, and Facebook. Have a great one!
