Using a spring cleaning approach, I gathered all of my lowest of low volume fabric and discovered I had just enough to make Chamomile, a quilt pattern by Allison Jensen. I began by sewing strip sets into sixteen patch blocks. With even more digging I was able to unearth some aqua dots and pink florals to make nine patch cornerstones and sashing. This light and airy result exemplifies spring for me! Chamomile 69" x 84" The DeFries Garden goddess says, "Welcome to spring!"

Cheryl Brickey released her quilt pattern Canvas Lines in 2017. I knew immediately that I would be making it.

48" x 48" approximately 288 pieces Being a hermit and staying home 24/7 means what else but sewing more and finishing another quilt top. Camille Roskelly designed Takes the Cake to be made with a pre-cut called a layer cake. I used yardage instead. I love the fabrics, the colors, and the result. Now it goes into the "to be finished later" drawer until I can venture out again and buy batting. Takes the Cake
70" x 79" approximately 2,196 pieces Once again I pattern tested for a designer, and today is release day. Here is All the Diagonals by Melanie Meyer. These foundation paper pieced heptagons are quite satisfying to make and much easier than they look. Mine reminded my niece of phases of the moon. I think so too! If you are on Instagram, check out the hashtag #mm_allthediagonals to see a great variety of sizes and colors made by ten creative quilters. It is now available on her site for purchase.
