2 New Patterns to Show You!...

Hello cute people!
It's finally the time when I can start to reveal my new patterns that will be released at Fall Quilt Market in a few weeks.
Today I'm showing you two new patterns.
First...I'd like to introduce you to
"Mr and Mrs."
A new easy applique pattern by me!

I used the 3 of the solids that are in my Daisy Cottage line...."pewter" for the sillouettes..."Hot Pink" for her collar...and "Daisy Yellow" for his.
Each are embellished with a few buttons and a little bit of embroidery.

Because I love vintage sillouette's and also vintage cameos...
I decided to applique Mr.and Mrs.
on an oval background edged with
Riley Blake's tiny white pom-pom trim!

I appliqued the oval onto Daisy Cottage mini floral in pink and then I wrapped it around a canvas frame and tied pink crochet ribbon around the edges...

I added pink tulle for a
little bit of vintage fluff!

I'm really happy with the way they turned out and they are fun and easy to make...
I will be hanging them in my little cottage above the bed in the master bedroom.  

The next pattern I'm showing is
"Home Sweet Home"
it's a wall quilt and this is where
Mr.and Mrs.live....lol


A cute little machine pieced cottage with a garden of appliqued and embroidered
daisies in the front yard:)

I made a crochet wreath for the door to
welcome guests...
and stitched on a vintage
glass doorknob (button). 

Here is a close up of the embroidery on each daisy petal...I used larger stitches and perle cotton for a fun vintage look. 

On each side of the applique heart...
I embroidered swirly smoke
coming out of the chimneys...
Mr. and Mrs. are warm and cozy inside
sitting by the fire:)
They are enjoying a quiet evening
together after supper...
 Mr. is reading a good book aloud while Mrs. works on her embroidery.

I used the large Daisy Cottage floral in
Pink to border the outside of the quilt... and the mini floral in yellow for
the small inner border.

I also used my trademark...
 tiny white ric-rac!
not for a cord this time but for
the window sashings:)

The roof is Daisy Cottage stripe in white and the shutters are 
Daisy Cottage dots in yellow.

My friend Helen Brutch quilted
"Home Sweet Home" for me...and did a
beautiful job as always!
What do you think?...would you like to see more of my new patterns?
Let me know if you do!
I'm having a quilty kind of day today and I hope you are too:)

  41. These patterns are so original! Home Sweet Home would be very comfortable in my living room, and Mr. and Mrs. would be so cute in the bedroom. I am so thankful I took your classes so I could learn to applique from you. I only have 3 more paperdoll blocks to go...lol. I have had lots of interruptions and since I have moved twice, lost the momentum to have the blocks done monthly to share in class :)

  65. Now that I have looked at all the posts, I think the home sweet home pattern is my favorite. What a cute wallhanging this would be! Congratulations on all the wonderful patterns and fabrics. I just bought some of the Sew Cherry - it is hard to find but I saw a print I really loved from it on a site where I was already purchasing some fabric. They didn't have the one I wanted the most, but when I received what I ordered, it was even nicer in person than in the pictures.

    ReplyDelete

  77. So glad to have spent time looking at your work it is really deserving of a good look, it is charming and enticing and thoughtful, I do want to see more!! The idea of sillouette's occurred to me too as a way of capturing as a kind of historical data a couple's likeness to be passed on along with the quilt..it's got heaps of potential for family histories etc, so nice for families to recall the likenesses of their loved ones.

    ReplyDelete
  78. So Beautiful :) Love the look sooo much!

    ReplyDelete
