Hi everyone!

 

 

 

 

Happy Thursday! And Happy First of Spring everyone!! Spring is the season of renewal, so we are excited for fresh starts and new challenges. We really love this Spring To-Do List from The Glitter Guide – lots of Spring inspiration. As well, we are giving away a Beyond the Backyard by Jane Farnham FQB on our Facebook page this week.

Let’s begin the new season with our Thankful Thursday . We have been partnering with many incredibly talented quilt designers to create exclusive quilt designs for our Free Projects Program! Have you seen all the pretty quilt designs yet? If not, be sure to check them out here. One quilt designer we had the privilege to partner with is Chris Hoover of Whirligig Designs, so today we are taking time to thank the lovely Chris!

 

Chris Hoover started quilting over 24 years ago, a hobby that very quickly became a new passion. A mix of both traditional and more modern quilt designs, Chris’ designs are very much influenced by the fabric collections she uses, and sees inspiration for her quilt designs from architecture and nature! Chris started Whirligig Designs about 10 years ago when she started quilt designing, a company that has quickly gained success for her trustworthy, concise, and wonderful quilt patterns.

 

We had the privilege of partnering with Whirligig Designs, and Chris designed two stunning quilts for us. The first is Framed using our Nightfall Collection, a simple yet eclectic quilt design that perfectly showcases our black and gold collection – soso beautiful!!

The second is Box Trot using our Let’s Go by Andrea Turk for Cinnamon Joe Studio Collection. This quilt design is a very clean-looking quilt with an almost gradation effect of color – very modern and lovely!

We adore Chris’ quilt design and style, and absolutely love the quilt designs she created for us – Thank you so much, Chris!! We are very thankful for your partnership, and are very excited for all the future endeavors to come! You can find Chris Hoover’s patterns and more on her website. Have a lovely day!

 

 

 

Happy Sewing!
