As you can guess,
Kassidy and I have been busy sewing up some new patterns with
Above is a sneak peek of her "Shuffle" quilt that she finished last week.
Shuffle will be one of the four quilts in our next Gracie Girl pattern.
All four quilts are super easy, fast and cute!
I wanted to have a beginning piecing
"go to pattern"
for those
of you who are teaching young girls to
piece a quilt for the first time...
or for those who might want to
make a quilt in one day!
All four patterns use Gracie Girl
pre-cut strips.
GG - 2 1/2" Rolie Polie
GG - 3 1/2" Rolie Polie
The pattern will be called
"Four Square"
I hope to have it available to you by next Monday.
The quilts included in the patterns are called:
1. Shuffle
2. Flip-Flop
3. Pixie Stix
4. Twirl

ReplyDeleteThose are such cute names for your upcoming quilt patterns. "Pixie Stix" and "Flip-Flop" immediately reminds me of some dear childhood memories. :o)
ReplyDeleteYour fabric combinations are sooo cute, and you go a great job sharing your ideas on your blog. I enjoy seeing the projects and learning how to use scraps on so many projects. Thanks.

Hi I have just found your blog and it is great. Have you got a tutorial on how to make your design board? I have a design wall in my work room but I think the board would be good when I go to the club I run. Thank you Davina xx

Can't wait for all 4 quilt patterns. Already love the 'shuffle' pattern. I received part of my Gracie Girl Fabric and just LOVE it! Will wait a bit before I start to cut and sew. It just warms my heart to look at it right now.
ReplyDeleteLove your little Gracie Girl (she's so beautiful!!) and I love the fabric too: I just got 2 FQ bundles in the mail from Intrepid Thread. Fantastic colors, fun images!! Can't wait to sew with them!! :-) Have a great day! Hugs, H in Healdsburg
ReplyDeleteLove the shuffle quilt. I'm going to have to make it for my daughter! Great colors!!
ReplyDeleteI love you for doing this for young girls who are branching out in their sewing. We got our daughter her 1st Bernina and getting this pattern and some of your Gracie girl is going to make a great birthday gift for her! Thank ou for remembering our young girls who we don't want to overwhelm but encourage and inspire them!
ReplyDeleteLove you for this!
