City Center Quilt Pattern Awhile back we released our "City Center" PDF Quilt Pattern and it has become a fast favorite. Based on a traditional "Court House Steps" quilt block it is an easy sew that looks fabulous with modern prints...or sewn up using all solids! This time I stitched up the pattern using the "Azure Skies" fabric that we designed for Riley Blake designs and I just love the combination...especially the pops of mustard in the "city center" as well in the ...

Just For Fun Quilt Pattern (in Azure Skies)
Just for Fun Quilt Pattern (in Azure Skies) A little while back we released our "Just for Fun" PDF Quilt Pattern. It is a pattern that came together at a time where I needed a project that was "just for fun". Something I didn't need to think too much about...a quilt that I could just turn on an audio book, forget about the world, and sew. I've made several more of these quilts since that time. The latest is one that is sewn up using the Azure Skies fabric line that we designed ... View the Post
Baby Gingham Quilt in Blue
This morning I finally bound a baby gingham quilt in blue that I have had in my pile for ages. The pattern is our Gingham Quilt Pattern that walks you through how to make both a baby quilt and a Queen size quilt using pre-cut 5 and 10 inch squares. In the past we've sewn up several pink versions as well as grey versions...but never a blue one until today. I really like how it turned out. Especially the binding...I usually bind with stripes or polka dots but today I went ... View the Post
Baby Quilt From Scraps
Earlier this spring I put together our Azure Skies Quilt Pattern using some Riley Blake solid fabrics that I really loved. And when I was finished I had a pile of scraps that were a variety of lengths but all the same width....and that got me thinking...and the next afternoon I stitched up all the scraps along with the left over white scraps from several quilt backings and BAM! I had a new baby quilt! It was a super quick sew since the pieces were already cut and were all the ... View the Post
Azure Skies Quilt Pattern in Solids
I made this quilt awhile back...but haven't shared it yet..it's our Azure Skies Quilt Pattern sewn up in Riley Blake solids! We originally designed this pattern with our Azure Skies fabric line in mind....the florals and graphic prints: But I love it just as much sewn up in the bright Confetti Cottons! This quilt is fairly large, finishing up at about 70" x 75", but comes together rather quickly. And looks great sewn up in florals as well as solids! And I love the ... View the Post
Azure Skies Baby Romper
I have been making a few project out of Azure Skies that I am excited to show you. This baby romper is one of them and I was so excited to sew some kid clothes again. I made this for a baby shower and it turned out so cute. I love it. I used a vintage Simplicity pattern (Simplicity to be exact) and did the shorts version. The pattern size was 12 months so she should be able to wear it next summer or even next fall with a shirt and sweater. I did modify the pattern so as not to do snaps, but ... View the Post
