"Simply Yours" Sweatshirt Jacket
Each one is an original! This pattern leads you through the steps to create your personal style with your favorite fabrics. Start with a focus fabric panel such as Northern Flight by Moda or one of the wonderful whimsical groups from Loralie Designs TM (Touching the Heart with Fun Art TM) such as "Cool School". Add a few companion pieces and start playing. With your sweatshirt as a base, do some simple piecing and a little quilting; and then sew the parts back together. Finish with a tab, binding and buttons. #HhQ7320

Dutch Tulip Cardigan
Rich batik fabrics bring these flowers to life. The secret is two shades...red and orange...for depth and glow. This cozy sweatshirt cardigan is just the right weight for chilly spring evenings. You adjust the sleeve length for a perfect fit. I chose an “Authentic Pigment” sweatshirt in Mocha for the quality and great background color. Three vintage buttons complete the look. Try 2 shades of your favorite color; pink, yellow, purple or a combination of colors for a beautiful spring bouquet.  #HhQ7317

 

Iris Garden Cardigan
Here is a cozy sweatshirt cardigan that is just the right weight for chilly spring evenings. I chose an “Authentic Pigment” sweatshirt for the quality and great colors. Three vintage buttons complete the look. Rich batiks and shaded fabrics bring these flowers to life. The secret is using two shades of your favorite iris color...one light and one dark...for depth and glow.  You’ll love this jacket for yourself or as a gift.  #HhQ7318

Snowflake Sweatshirt
Celebrate the snowy season in this cozy sweatshirt. Use chenille for the snowflake for great texture or a beautiful white on white fabric for a little more elegant look. I've used raw edge appliqué for my snowflakes; it is fun to do and makes the stitching go quickly. This sweatshirt cardigan makes a very impressive gift that won't be limited to the holidays! #HhQ7315

 

Pumpkin Season Cardigan
This sweatshirt cardigan is a perfect weight for chilly fall afternoons. Layer it over your favorite shirt or turtleneck sweater for indoors or out. We chose an "Authentic Pigment" sweatshirt for the quality and great colors. Three vintage buttons complete the look. #HhQ7308

Daisy Mae Sweatshirt Cardigan
This cozy sweatshirt cardigan is just the right weight for chilly spring evenings. You adjust the sleeve length for a perfect fit. We chose an "Authentic Pigment" sweatshirt for the quality and great colors. Three vintage buttons complete the look. Try yellow petals with black centers for Black Eyed Susans. Purple or pink petals with brown centers make beautiful painted daisies. Whatever the colors, you'll love this jacket for yourself or as a gift. Fabric requirements for binding 1/2 yard. #HhQ7306

Sunflower Cardigan
Here is another fun addition to my Sweatshirt Cardigan line. The chenille of the big sunflower has a wonderful texture that is easy to create. Single layers of brown plaids and checks for the centers are better suited to the scale of the smaller sunflowers. Use a single gold for all the petals or as many scrappy shades as you can find (I used 10 different golds).  #HhQ7309

Poinsettia Cardigan
Here is a cozy sweatshirt cardigan that is just right for the holiday season. Dress it up or down, depending on the occasion. I used rich flannels for the poinsettias but it would look great in hand dyed or batik fabrics as well. This project makes a very impressive Christmas gift. #HhQ7310

Quilts
 

NEW! Mountain View Quilt
 Lap (59” x 66”) or Queen (94” x 105”) With offset triangle rows (reducing the number of matching points) this design is a great way to build skills with triangles. Ideal for confident beginners, this pattern also teaches proper measuring techniques to get well-behaved borders every time. Complete cutting instructions are included for both quilts, combining fat quarters, jelly rolls and yardage. #HhQ7325

NEW!Terry’s Flower Bed Quilt
97” x 113” Queen Size When Benartex presented the Flower Show II fabrics, I knew I had found my perfect garden. No weeding, watering or maintenance; just spectacular blooms. Gather up your favorite flowers for any season and create your own perfect flower bed. Additional layouts and the fabric requirements are included for Twin, Full or King size. #HhQ7326

Road Trip Memories Quilt
Quilters buy fabric wherever they go! Gather up those pieces you brought home from your trip and create a lasting memory. You will need 2 yards of a scenic piece that reminds you of your travels. There are so many landscape scenes and themes available from most of the major fabric companies that you’ll have lots to choose from!. This pattern shows you how to “fussy cut” squares from your focus fabric or you can add some of your photos printed on fabric. Fabric requirements are given for each element in the quilt. #HhQ7323

Brick by Brick Lap Warmer
Here is a Fat Quarter Friendly quilt that is great for beginners and yet fun, quick and easy for the more experienced quilter. Choose the fabrics, colors and textures to suit your fancy. My choice of Woolies flannels by Maywood Studios gives me the look of wool with the convenience of cotton. Also pictured is the more contemporary looking version made from Kaffe Fasset’s shot cottons by Westminster Fabrics. This quilt makes a great gift for anyone; man, woman or child! #HhQ7324

Tuesday Garden Club Quilt
Benartex created the Flower Show line and I used it to create my own year-round garden. I nestled my flowers into my "garden" by using the greenery from the same line for the setting triangles. Choose a dark and light value of the same color to make the trellis for the most realistic look. Strip piecing and the use of Thangles simplifies the construction. Watch the placement of your dark and light pieces, though...just follow the layout in the pattern for your own "Blue Ribbon" quilt. 56" x 76". #HhQ7319
 

Garden Trellis Florals
If you are looking to use one of the beautiful florals on the market today, this is a great way to do it. You don't have to wait until your free motion quilting skills improve or pay a professional to do the job for you. Simple is best, so let the fabric be the focus, add 6” wide borders, get out your walking foot and off you go. This quilt would make an impressive gift! Instructions are included for 2 different size quilts; the larger lap size uses 54” wide fabric and the smaller lap size uses 44” wide fabric. Large Lap: 64" x 78"   Small Lap: 52" x 66". #HhQ7316
 

Quick Snuggle Quilt...A “do it now” project.
If you are looking for a manageable and “do-able” quilt, this is the one. Simple is best, so let the fabric be the focus and make this wonderful snuggly lap quilt with chenilled seams. Each block is quilted separately and then sewn together with the raggedy technique. No layering or basting big, hard to manage pieces and no last minute struggles to get it quilted. In just a few evenings and a weekend or two, you will have a gift quilt ready to sign and wrap! 65" x 73". #HhQ7314

Raggedy Trees
Raggedy Trees is a pattern that combines two very popular raw-edge techniques, the bulls-eye method of concentric sizes and the raw edge seam - quilt as you go method. The pattern is the brain child of 3 quilting friends. The original quilt was accepted into the first annual "Walk in the Woods" Quilt Show held in Eagle River, Wisconsin in July, 2001. We hope you enjoy our quilt. 53" x 68" #HhQ7305

Fabric Friends
Aunt Sulkey's Choice Quilt
(49" x 69" finished size)
This project makes use of the printed panels found so often in wonderful groups, such as "Burst of Autumn" from Moda Fabrics. The pieced block is a traditional one, sometimes called Aunt Sulkey's Choice. I used the panel blocks as alternate blocks. I chose the rest of the fabrics from the same designer line. Color choices made easy by using companion fabrics. . . "Fabric Friends"! While this design is not difficult, careful and attentive sewing will help you get the desired results. . . a beautiful quilt! #HhQ7301

		Fabric Friends II Schoolgirl's Puzzle Fabric and color selection seem to be a scary lesson for newer quilters. This quilt is the 2nd in my "Fabric Friends" series which makes fabric choices simple by selecting all the parts from one fabric line, such as Moda's "Harvest Home" or "Seaside Rose". No need to worry about picking the right tones or shades. . . they are all right there. The more experienced quilter will enjoy playing with value and scale to create different variations. #HhQ7311
Harvest Home quilt (12” finished block) @ 62” x 86”	Seaside Rose quilt (8” finished block) @ 44” x 60”
