Getting new fabrics into the shop means new shop samples. I have lost all of my sample sewists, so I'm now sewing everything myself. This is another reason why I haven't had time to share things with you. I'm finding it a challenge to sew everything myself and do all the other marketing, buying, managing employees and such that is part of running a business.
This first one is called the Sunkissed Quilt. It's 56" by 72". The pattern is one of my favorite Villa Rosa Designs patterns that calls for a panel called Foxfire. In this kit you get to choose the order in which you add the borders. Whichever fabric you choose for the first border is also your binding fabric.

This next one is super easy. It's just a panel! No piecing required. The fabric collection is called Dragon Friends. The backing I used is the Blue Geometric print from the Dragon Friends collection. The binding fabric is the Purple Geometric print from the Dragon Friends collection. The panel is 36" by the width of fabric. So this finished at about 36" by 43" - a great size for a quick and easy baby quilt.
The Dragon Friends collection features a second panel and it has a border print. I'm planning a second kit for this collection that features the other panel and the border print. As soon as I get time to sew it up!
This last one features the new Anna Marie Horner fabric collection called Jumpstart. The pattern is another Villa Rosa Designs pattern called Ebb Tide.
The Ebb Tide pattern doesn't have the outer border, but I wanted to add an outer border to this one to show off more of the fabrics in the collection. Our kit includes the outer border and the additional instructions required since the outer border is not part of the Ebb Tide pattern. The kit makes a 57" by 71" finished size quilt and includes the exact fabrics shown here plus the pattern and the binding fabric. The collection includes two wide backs and I used one of them for the back of this quilt. Below I flipped the corner back so you can see the backing fabric I used.
The links included previously in this post take you to the fabric collection or quilt kits I am showing on my website. If you would like to check out my shop website, here is the direct link to the home page.
If you have a local quilt shop in your area I encourage you to please check with them first to see if they might carry anything I'm showing you that you might want. But if you don't have a local quilt shop in your area or your local shop doesn't carry what I'm sharing, I'd love to help you get what you want/need!
