New Patterns - Snow Village and With Love

 Hello there!  If you've been following along with me on Instagram you know that I've designed a couple of new patterns recently!  I'd love to share those with you today!  First up is Snow Village.


Snow Village is a pattern made up of two simple blocks - a snowflake block and a house block.  I've never made a snowflake quilt so this was a fun one for me!  These are simple snowflakes and each one is made up of a different fabric.


I designed this to be a "winter" quilt that could last beyond December 25th.  Normally here in Utah, we would've had lots of snow at the time I took this photo, but this year was weird!  We just barely got our first real snowfall! 


This is a fairly quick make, finishing at 66" x 66".


I was so excited about this gingham fabric by Lella Boutique for Moda.  I thought it was super cozy and wintery so I bought enough for the houses and the back.  But I just can't wait to start seeing different colorways of this pattern pop up!  How cute would this pattern be with a black background and white snowflakes?!?  Do I need to make another one?  Hmmm....maybe so!

The second quilt I want to share with you today is called, With Love.


This is such a fun quilt to make!  Again, it incorporates just two simple blocks. 


The hearts are made from 10" squares (I used a bunch of reds from different Sweetwater for Moda collections).  I also used my favorite background fabric, Firefly Whisper from the line Hello, Bear by Art Gallery Fabrics.  I had everything for this quilt in my stash.  Didn't have to buy a thing!  I bet you have lots of fabrics in your stash that would be fun too!  Or maybe not.  Maybe a trip to the fabric store is in order!  Wink, wink. :)


This quilt is also a pretty quick make.  It finishes at 55" x 55", so there's still time to whip this up before Valentine's Day!  But hearts are good all year long, right?  This could be fun as a wedding gift, for an anniversary or for someone that just needs a little extra love in their life.  


Both of these quilts were quilted by my friend, Kaylene Parry.  I have used her a lot over the years and she is a fabulous quilter!  I so appreciate her squeezing these into her busy schedule during the busy holiday season!


If you're interested in the PDF or paper versions of either of these patterns, you can stop by my shop today!  Just click HERE.  


I'd love to hear what you think about my new patterns!  Leave a comment below and I'll pick a name to win a copy of each one!  We'll keep this giveaway short and sweet so the winner can receive their copies asap - while there is a chance of snow on the ground and love is in the air!  I'll announce a winner Monday.  Open to anyone, anywhere!
