I just finished this customer requested quilt. He chose my Triple Dot pattern. He also chose the fabric line American Gatherings. The pattern calls for a half yard of three colors or 3 of each color. But I wanted a more scrappy look so I used 3 charm packs and pulled out the white-on-white prints as well as a few that my customer didn't want in the quilt. Turned out lovely, but as always it's hard to get a good photo in the morning sun.

OSU Quilt
This was a customer request in OSU colors (Oklahoma). She chose a simple two-color quilt instead of adding gray for the little black squares. She also wanted the back to have a little something, so I split each color in half and added a white strip between everything. This worked out great because this is a big quilt, and I needed that extra couple of inches.
If you want to make your own, the pattern is called Rah Rah Rally.

Teal and Chartreuse Quilt
50" x 60"
My daughter and I whipped up this easy quilt together. When I asked her what fabrics we should use, she picked her current fav - teal and chartreuse.
Fun little back design based on necessity.
I had a customer request a pantograph on an upcoming quilt so I thought this was the perfect quilt to practice on. I haven't done a panto in years. Fortunately, it all came back to me! Now I feel I am ready to take on that custom quilt.

Punch Card - A New Quilt Pattern
57.5 x 71.5
I've got a fun rainbow quilt pattern for you. It doesn't have to be a rainbow, but it sure is pretty as one. This pattern reminds me of those old punch cards we had at work where the machine punched the holes in the card. So that's where this pattern got its name. You can find the Punch Card Pattern in my shop here.
Straight line quilting gives this quilt a nice texture.
It is just as stunning with a black background.
If I had these aqua fabrics I would have made this ombre version.
I've listed the Kona Cotton colors that I used in the quilt pattern so you can make one just like mine.
Here's the link for the pattern. It's an easy one that uses strip piecing so it comes together pretty quickly. Tag me on instragram if you make one. I'd love to see it!

Whispering Waves Quilt Pattern
64" x 72"
I designed Whispering Waves to be a soft and flowing quilt pattern. I chose to make the throw size quilt in gray, tan, and dusty blue for a soft almost neutral look. The pattern also can be made in a twin or queen size. Yardage in 4 fabrics plus a background is all you need to make this quilt.All three sizes can be made traditionally, making 2 half square triangles at a time. There are bonus instructions for the throw size to make the quilt with the Accuquilt 4" HST die. Using the die skips all the trimming of squares! Here are some mockups I made. The first and the last give off a southwest vibe. And I like the cute navy, teal and pink colorway.
Get your copy of Whispering Waves in my shop. Tag me on Instagram. I'd love to see what you made with this pattern.
Accuquilt is having a sale for Labor Day - free shipping and 10% off. It's a great time to get the HST die if you don't have one. I love mine and use it all the time. Such a time saver!
