Green Tea


Here it is ... The last of my five new patterns. This one is called Green Tea. I love the Meadow Green and Currant Jam fabrics in the Mill House Inn collection by Figtree for Moda and I thought they were just perfect for this design.

The binding has a little something special: as a finishing touch, small triangles are sewn into the binding.



All of my new patterns have been posted on my website.

Thank you for all your sweet comments and emails about my new patterns. I love to read them!

Frosted Squares

Introducing another of my new patterns: Frosted Squares. Yep, I used a Moda Layer Cake for this one as well. Frosted Squares measures 74" by 87". For my design I used Mill House Inn by Joanna Figueroa for Moda.


I have one more new design that I am almost ready to share with you. I hope to have it posted on my blog this weekend.

Thanks for coming by!

Sugar Twist







Sugar Twist is another one of my new designs. All you need to make this quilt is a Moda Layer Cake some background farbic and a sweet border.


I made my design using Mill House Inn by Joanna Figueroa for Moda.






I added a special finishing touch to the binding, a thin piping that is really easy to make and add to the quilt. Instructions are included in the pattern.


I hope you like my new designs. All of my new patterns will be avaliable on my website The Pattern Basket in the next couple of days.

I still have two more patterns to come!

Charm Drops!

I posted a sneak peek of this new pattern a few months ago, and now here is the finished quilt design -- it’s called Charm Drops.

I played around with the border on this pattern and changed it many times, but in the end I decided that simple is best for this one. The fabric collection is called Simple Abundance by Bonnie and Camille for Moda.



I'm so happy with the way this quilt turned out. I think Charm Drops is a sweet little pattern and I sure hope you like it.


I have three more new pattern designs finished and ready to show you, I will be back to post pictures very soon. Thanks for coming by!

Sew Pretty for the Holidays

I have several new patterns to show you over the next week. Here's the first one called "Sew Pretty for the Holidays". With the Holiday season just around the corner, I couldn't resist creating a new apron with the Figgy Pudding collection by Basicgrey for Moda.




























I'm really going to enjoy wearing this apron over the Holidays. I can just smell cookies baking in the oven!


More to come ...
