Today I'm sharing a Juice Pops quilt that I made using two packs of 5" squares from the Kona solids Wildberry palette.
I finally finished it up in July and was able to get some photos of it recently.
I took a little break from writing new quilt patterns in July and decided to give one of my older patterns an refresh.
Today I'm happy to be able to share the updated Whirled quilt pattern with you!
Whirled patterns now available in the A Bright Corner pattern shop.
Here's what's new in the Whirled pattern! First off, it got a new pattern cover including a new cover quilt and updated colors.
I also updated the instructions to include a few tip boxes and updated the diagrams to make block construction even easier.
The pattern also now includes more size options and fabric options!
Introducing the Scattered Showers quilt pattern! Scattered Showers is a fresh, spring-inspired pattern that includes fun umbrella quilt blocks and chain blocks. It is precut friendly and includes plenty of size options for you to choose from.
The Scattered Showers quilt pattern is available in the A Bright Corner pattern shop.
I just have to say that I pretty much love any quilt that includes chain blocks (also sometimes referred to as Irish Chain blocks). So when I was sketching out the very first versions of these little umbrella quilt blocks, I knew right away that I wanted to pair them with chain quilt blocks.
8/17/25 edited to add: sign ups are now closed and the quilt along for 2025 has ended. Thank you to everyone who participated!
Some of the block patterns are available for purchase in each designer's shop. Find those links below
We're back for another year of the Summer Block Party quilt along!
We had so much fun last year so we decided to throw another block party! This year there are nine designers collaborating on one fun and free quilt. Each designer has designed a unique summer-inspired quilt block to share. Want to quilt along with us? The fun begins Monday June 23, 2025.
Over the past few weeks I've had the chance to play with a new add-on to the Electric Quilt software (EQ8), called the Kaleidoscope Collection Two.
It includes over 500 kaleidoscope-style quilt blocks that you can edit, recolor, and customize to your heart's content.
Here's the first block I made using the block pattern called "K2 Compass 11 Star Corners".
Hello friends - today I'm sharing a quick little project I stitched up last week. It's a new free quilt pattern from The Fat Quarter Shop called Little Loves.
It's just four quilt blocks plus a pieced top and bottom border so I was able to get the top sewn up in just one day.
For the fabrics I chose a few prints from the Laguna Sunrise fabric line.
Laguna Sunrise was designed by Sherri & Chelsi for Moda Fabrics. The full line includes some other colors - purples, greens, and coral to name a few. But I chose just the reds and this delightful, minty aqua color to use in my quilt. And I love how they look together!
Lately I've been working on updating one of my older patterns, and I'm happy to be able to share the new Skipper pattern with you today
The Skipper pattern was first released back in 2017 as a fat quarter pattern with a unique star block.
This fun Skipper star block came to be when I was playing around with my Division pattern and wanted to take some of those elements and apply them to a star block....and Skipper was born.
