Pebble Beach Quilt Pattern

62" x 74"

This is my new pattern called Pebble Beach. It comes in two sizes - Throw and Twin. I made this throw quilt in lovely neutral tones. There are shades of brown and gray. I had so much fun narrowing down my fabrics. I haven't made a neutral quilt in a long time. Who knew I had so many?

The background looks solid, but it's really a white-on-white print that was a shade in between Kona white and Kona Snow. 


Here are a few examples in some different colors. I really like the soft navy background and the colorful prints in the second one.

Sand Bar Quilt Pattern

60 x 72

This is one of a set of 3 summertime beachy-themed quilt patterns I've been working on. Sand Bar comes in five sizes from baby to king. Sand Bar is made in three fabric colors. If you look closely, you will see the congruency of a fabric that runs through each set of colors. 

The key to making this quilt look great is to choose a light fabric in each of the three colors as your main print. It should be lighter than all the others. If the fabrics match too closely, you will not achieve the same look as in the cover quilt. For the strips or scraps, choose fabrics that are medium to dark. The more variety the better. The number of 2.5” strips listed on the fabric requirements is the minimum needed. Use more to achieve a scrappier look. See the fabric requirements here.



One morning I had a great idea to try this pattern out in an analogous color theme. I chose this mango, pink, and purple colorway, but I think it would look great in any 3 analogous colors. 
 

You can find Sand Bar in my shop.
