Here are some close-ups of the quilts we showed in our booth at Spring Quilt Market...
I'd had an idea for a series of quilts rattling around in my head for a while. My original idea was for much smaller quilts, but this series came to me while I was laying out the booth design...This new quilt pattern is called "Star Maker", pattern number LH 09009.
This first version of the quilt was inspired by the cover of our sales booklet...
I tried to use as many of the new Teatime Floral II fabrics as I could in this series, to give the shop owners a good idea of how all of the fabrics would work together. It was a really fun project for me.
Here's #2 with yet another coloration of that darn Hydrangea fabric...
Version #3 was in the middle of the booth...It was the only quilt that used the new Cross Stitch Alphabet fabric (LH 09016 Bronze) to form a word.
The fourth quilt uses one of my favorite fabrics...LH 06030 Powder, I just love these roses.
The last of the series combines fabrics from TTF I & TTF II. The Ticking Stripe (LH 08061 Powder) in the outer border is also one of my favorites. I've had a thing for pillow ticking fabrics for as long as I can remember...
We'll have the pattern fronts available as a click & print download via the new projects page by mid June. (click the side bar icon on the upper left) That way if you like any of the quilts, you can take a print out into your LQS and show them what you are interested in.
We are still digging our way out of the post-market-craziness here. I am still catching up on sleep, believe it or not.
Back in two shakes...H2
I was invited to Quilt Market to help a designer (Red Rooster) with her booth. What an overwhelming experience! I loved your booth and had hoped to get an opportunity to say hi, but you were always busy and since I wasn't buying fabric (I just teach quilting) I didn't want to bother you. I loved the quilts (and the fence) and I'm delighted you will have the patterns available. I love this line of fabric (I'm a fan of pillow ticking too!).
