Hello! Welcome to the first day of the Sunlit Garden Blog Hop. Thanks for stopping by. Sunlit Garden is my new signature fabric collection with Island Batik, designed by Jerry Khiev.
Disclaimer: The fabric used to make these projects was given to me by Island Batik.
Sunlit Garden features gorgeous hues of red, green, and teal. The designs include daisies, scattered wildflowers, speckles, and a couple more floral and foliage patterns. There are 20 fabrics in this collection. The Sunlit Garden fabric collection should be available in local quilt shops now. I made five new quilts and patterns to support the Sunlit Garden fabric. Here are my quilts:
Build a dreamy neighborhood. Each row of houses features a different colorway from the Sunlit Garden collection, red, green, blue, and rainbow. The houses are partially paper pieced. This pattern can be made with 10" precuts or with yardage. Pattern available in my Etsy shop.
The Cabin Crossing Quilt Pattern sews an 84" x 84" square finished size quilt, perfect for your bed, a housewarming gift, or a large, cuddly couch throw. This pattern is sewn using a rotary cutter and straight piecing methods. This pattern includes full color step by step diagrams. Pattern available in my Etsy shop.
The Lynnbank Basket Quilt Pattern sews a 73" x 100" finished size quilt, perfect for a large bed. This pattern is sewn using both fusible applique and straight piecing methods. This pattern includes full color step by step diagrams. Sew this stunning heirloom quality traditional basket variation quilt with applique floral vine border. The baskets are pieced with fusible appliqued handles. The floral vine border features a wavy, bias strip vine with oval flowers and alternating leaves. Pattern available in my Etsy shop.
This quilt features swirly fusible applique motifs. When you set them together, they create a star in the center of the blocks. This quilt can be made with 10" precuts, or yardage. Mix and match the colors of the swirls for maximum enjoyment. Pattern available in my Etsy shop.
The Miss Pickle Goes to Town Quilt Pattern sews a 54" x 54" square finished size quilt, perfect for wall decor, a housewarming gift, or a cuddly couch throw. This pattern is sewn using both paper piecing and curved piecing methods. This pattern is recommended for experienced quilters. This pattern includes full color step by step diagrams. Sew this stunning heirloom quality traditional pickle dish variation quilt. Curved triangle sections are paper pieced. Paper piecing experience is recommended. This pattern is available in my Etsy shop.
