Spring
Forward - "Floral" Collection - Pattern
- # Q04
I live and work in the Pacific Northwest surrounded
by lots of mountains, trees and green plants of every
variety. This area is commonly referred to as a “rain
forest” with the emphasis being on the RAIN.
We pay a price for all this beauty, especially this
time of the year when it is already dark and gloomy.
Instead of getting depressed by all the liquid sunshine,
I created a bright and cheerful spring time quilt.
There’s nothing like some bright pastels to
chase away the doldrums. This sweet little quilt is
easily constructed using strip piecing and fusible
appliqué quilting methods.

May Basket - "Floral" Collection - Pattern
- # Q05
This quilt is reminiscent
of the old May Day tradition of filling a paper basket
with the first flowers of spring and hanging it on the
door of an unsuspecting neighbor. As a child, this was
right up there with hunting for Easter eggs. After knocking
on the door, my friends and I would hide and wait for
the surprised expressions of the lucky recipients. What
a simple life! The May Basket quilt combines appliquéd
floral blocks (set “on point”) and strip piecing for
the border. It also uses “straight of grain” setting
triangles to keep it from becoming wavy along the outer
edges.

Mothers Day Bouquet - "Floral" Collection
- Pattern - # Q06
This quilt is dedicated
to all those wipers of little noses, testers of warm
foreheads, and kissers of booboos – our mothers. They
have dedicated their lives, and given up most of their
sanity, all in the name of motherhood. There’s a special
place for these hardworking and under appreciated women
– it’s called a SPA! Done up in colors from the 1930’s,
the Mother’s Day Bouquet quilt combines strip-pieced
blocks with appliquéd floral blocks and is sure to make
any mother proud.

Summer's Last Bloom - "Floral"
Collection - Pattern - # Q07
With their large seed
heads and blazing yellow petals, sunflowers command
attention in any garden. Not only do they nourish our
bodies, they provide beauty for our eyes. They were
an inspiration for Van Gogh and continue to inspire
us today. This graphic quilt captures the last rays
of summer sun and will brighten any home during the
dark winter months. It combines the strip-piecing and
appliqué quilting methods. It would also be wonderful
with a bright blue background.

Christmas
Cactus – “Floral” Collection –
Pattern - # Q08
Years
ago my daughter gave me a Christmas cactus start as
part of a Girl Scout project. At her insistence I made
sure it was watered regularly and well cared for but
it would not bloom. Out of frustration I stopped watering
it for a few weeks. Out of guilt I started watering
it again and what do you know, it finally bloomed. This
quilt combines strip-piecing and appliqué construction
and is finished with a decorative blanket stitch (and,
best of all, does not require any watering).

Peony
Patch - "Floral" Collection - Pattern -
#Q09
I
love this time of year when the peonies start to unfurl
their leaves sending their long stems topped with
flower buds skyward. In the next couple of weeks those
tightly wrapped buds will be bursting into big fluffy
pink flowers with yellow centers and the sweet scent
of summer – oh, the inspiration! This equally
sweet little quilt is easily constructed using strip
piecing and fusible appliqué quilting methods.

"Liberty"
Collection - Pattern # Q10
This patriotic
quilt is dedicated to two of my ancestral grandfathers
(seven generations back), Isaac Waggoner and John
Padgett, good friends who served together in the South
Carolina militia during the Revolutionary War.
They, like thousands of others, helped assure the
liberties we enjoy today. The stars are embroidered
on a faded blue fabric and combined with a reproduction
blue print, tea-dyed muslin, and tea-dyed red stripes.
The crests, large stars and blue corners of the flag,
are decorated with blanket stitches to give the quilt
the look of age. By the way, after the war Isaac’s
son, John, married John Padgett’s daughter, Emsey,
and the rest is, as they say, HISTORY.

1776 Concord Colonial – “Liberty” Collection – Pattern
- # Q11
This
patriotic pattern is a tribute to the small band of
men who, although greatly outnumbered, bravely faced
the fight for freedom in Concord, Massachusetts. Their
actions in 1775 sparked the fires of the Revolutionary
War in 1776. The quilt uses block construction for the
house, strip piecing for the striped blocks and is finished
with appliqué. The cross stitch, worked on 14
count aida cloth, mirrors the quilt. A little slice
of Americana pie!

"High
Tea" Collection - Pattern # Q15
What a lovely concept
- high tea - that nice leisurely break in the afternoon
nibbling on fancy little sandwiches, eating a crumpet
and sipping tea. Unfortunately, I'm not a big fan
of tea; it would be better if it tasted more like
coffee. What I do like about tea is the pot from which
it is poured. I started collecting teapots when I
was 15 (which automatically gives them "antique
status") and have continued collecting through
the years. Inspiration for this quilt comes from that
collection. The teapots are embroidered in traditional
redwork style on tea-dyed muslin and combined with
a toiles-type print. It would also be lovely done
in red with a red toiles fabric accent.

Corner Tea Shop – “High Tea” Collection

This
wall quilt replicates the cheery windows of many a
tea shop in merry old England. With its chintzware-like
background, checkered tablecloth and steam rising
from the spout of the teapot, it invites you to come
in and order a spot of tea. It also gives you the
opportunity to take Grandma’s embroidered dresser
scarf out of the trunk and combine it with your quilting
talents to create a two-generational heirloom. This
quilt combines easy strip-piecing and appliqué
quilting methods and has optional instructions for
adding Grandma’s dresser scarf.

Tea With The Earl – “High Tea ” Collection
– Pattern - #Q17
Earl
Grey that is! This Earl may not be nobility, but he makes
a fine cup of tea, especially when served in an old transferware
teapot which is the look I was going for with this design.
The crisp blue and white fabric add to that Staffordshire
touch – it would also be lovely in other old transferware
colors such as red and white or brown and white. This
quilt employs easy strip-piecing and appliqué quilting
methods with a decorative blanket stitch on the rose buds
along the border. |

Sweet Violet Tea
- “High Tea” Collection - Pattern - #Q18
A
number of years ago my good friend, Heda, gave me a
few violet plants with the warning that they would take
over if planted directly into the garden. I didn’t
listen and now I have violets everywhere, including
the lawn. I’ve pulled and dug to no avail –
perhaps a good dose of “agent orange” would
do the trick. Despite their invasive tendencies, they
are awfully pretty. This wall quilt combines their beauty
with four pots of steaming tea – a little “tea
party” in the garden. With full-size template
patterns and placement sheets, this quilt is easy to
construct using strip piecing and fusible appliqué
quilting methods.

"Garden
Days" Collection - Pattern # Q20
Gardening has always been a passion; however,
for the past few years I’ve been so busy sewing that
the garden has become neglected. It looks a lot like
the “Secret Garden” (the movie) before it was restored.
In addition, a couple of years ago the crows discovered
the cherry trees on the edge of the garden and they
have been picking them clean ever since. Oh well,
I’d rather be quilting than baking cherry pies – have
at it crows!

Bowl
of Cherries "Garden Days" Collection - Pattern
# Q21
My
mother made the best pies I've ever had; from the common,
apple and blueberry, to the unusual, gooseberry and
huckleberry. But, my absolute favorite was her sour
cherry pie. It was a wonderful reward for a few hours
of "ladder time" in the orchard. This appliquéd
quilt combines my favorite shades of green with the
bright red of the cherries. It would also be lovely
done in shades of blue with the red cherries. The bands
of the bowls are embroidered with red French knots and
the cherry stems are embroidered with a stem stitch.

Pumpkin
Hill - "Garden Days" Collection - Pattern
# Q22
Pumpkin
season is the most wonderful time of the year. The air
is crisp, the leaves are beautiful and, best of all,
no more "quilt guilt" (quilting when you should
be weeding). The first time I planted pumpkins, I followed
the instructions and planted 3-4 seeds per mound. Unfortunately,
I didn't read the part that says you should thin them
after they start to grow. They took over the entire
garden choking everything in their path, and they were
mostly vines with very few pumpkins. I've learned a
lot since then - I now purchase pumpkins from the farm
stand down the road. Pumpkin Hill includes patterns
and instructions for two quilts. Both Quilts are appliquéd,
and strip piecing is used for the inner borders &
corner blocks. They are sure to add a touch of fall
to your home.

Share The Bounty - “Garden Days” Collection
- Pattern - #Q23
Keeping
“uninvited guests” out of the garden is
such a futile task. Scarecrows merely provide the
birds with a great place to perch while making their
dining selections. The only solution I’ve found
is to sow a few extra seeds and hope the birds will
“share the bounty” with me. Strip piecing,
full-size numbered appliqué patterns, and full-size
placement sheets make this an easy quilt to construct.
Finishing details include blanket stitching on the
flowers and satin stitched bird tracks on the border.

Les Poulets - “Country
French ” Collection - Pattern # Q30
This
low-contrast quilt was influenced by my love of French
toiles fabric and my feeble attempts at raising poultry.
As to the latter, other than their beauty and the
wonderful “crowing” at 4 a.m., roosters are generally
worthless. They do, however, make nice subject matter
for pictures. These roosters are embroidered on tea-stained
muslin and combined with French-style fabrics for
a quiet and antique-looking wall quilt.

Lancaster
Square - "Pennsylvania" Collection - Pattern
- #Q35
I
have visited Lancaster County several times over the
years but never for more than a day or so. Last fall
I had the good fortune of spending an entire week in
this inspiring county. With visiting every quilt shop
(there is no such thing as too much fabric), listening
to the clip-clop of the horses pulling their buggies,
and enjoying the friendly folks who are so lucky to
live there, nirvana was attained. A tour through the
city of Lancaster, with its brick colonial row houses,
was the perfect end to the perfect week and my inspiration
for this quilt. It has full-size template patterns and
placement sheets and is easily constructed using strip
piecing and fusible appliqué quilting methods.

The Home Farm
-
"Pennsylvania" Collection - Pattern
- #Q36
Last
year I had the wonderful opportunity to spend several
months in western Pennsylvania where inspiration is
around every bend of an old country road. As I wandered
from one “burg” to the next in search of
another antique shop, I couldn’t help but notice
the old farm houses dotting the countryside. With newly-mown
lawns being covered with falling leaves and pumpkins
for sale by the roadside, I was inspired to create this
quilt. It has full-size template patterns and placement
sheets and is easily constructed using strip piecing
and fusible appliqué quilting methods.

Vintage
Butterfly - "Nostalgia" Collection - Pattern
- #Q40
While
perusing my favorite antique shop I ran across thirty
butterflies cut from some great old 1920’s -1940’s
fabrics. The scant seam allowance had already been
pressed under and basted by a quilter from the past
- what a treasure! I combined these beauties from
the past with an interesting border to create this
butterfly quilt. An easy strip-piecing method is used
for the border to create a “scalloped”
look. The butterflies are appliquéd and finished
with a blanket stitch. To that quilter from the past:
your quilt is complete.
