Hello Quilting Friends...The following pictures are quilts made with the NEW Teatime Floral collection...you can download a pattern front for your personal use by clicking on the quilt icons on the sidebars to the <---left & right--->
First is Firecracker, I designed this quilt to show off how well all of the colors in the new Teatime palette looked together, it's soft and romantic, yet graphic...I especially loved using several different creamy mini prints in between the stars to add interest to the background.
Here is a close up shot of Cheryl Winslow's work. Most of you know by now, that she is our "quilter extraordinaire"...She arc-quilted the star points to make them more "poufy".
Gonzo Gingham is one of my favorites...it's super simple to make, so the fabric does most of the work for you! The different tones of mist blue and khaki create an optical plaid-like effect.
This close up shows another one of my favorite details, a "faux" piano key mini border and an ever-so-thin stripe as the binding...I just love them used together.
I also am smitten with the way the tiny bits of pearlescent ink catch the light on some of the Teatime Floral fabrics in these quilts. It reminds me of fairy dust.
Here is a group shot, showing just 3 of the many possible color combinations in the new Teatime Floral collection...

Keep on piecing...

Beautiful. I am not a quilter myself, alas, but I find your plaids (and the floral collection) beautiful to look at. Congratulations.

Thank you so much for the patterns. They are all wonderful. My problem now is, which one do I start first? I guess the right place to start would to be to some of your great Teatime Fabrics. Then after I fondle them for a while, maybe I'll be able to decide on which pattern to start. Thanks again!!!

Your site is great. I too love all the small prints in quilts. Is the "Mad About Plaid" pattern still available as a free pattern. I fell in love with it and desperately want to make it.
Thank you for your beautiful patterns and fabrics.
