Templates and step by step instructions make Cindy McCoy’s complicated-looking Crazy Lightning table topper as easy to piece as it is to look at.
This crazy-fun project uses two colors. Cindy provides yardage for two fabrics, but you may desire to mix it up a bit and use various scraps or fat quarters in the two colors of your choice to add additional texture and movement to the lightning bolts.

Join us as we challenge ourselves to think outside the box in creating dynamic 9-Patch blocks..
Foundation paper piecing (FPP) templates will be provided with which you can design 9-Patch blocks in 12″ finished sizes. For some of the blocks there will be information for patchwork piecing. Part of this challenge is deciding how to make your blocks, so there will be no fabric requirements. You can choose your preferred methods to make them.
There are a total of 30 units. The design possibilities are just about limitless.

The little poems that included X Marks the Spot and “Itsy Bitsy Spider” were used in fingerplays and were a form of entertainment and learning. This new pattern by Cynthia Passaretti adapts the poem, and with it, you can go on a treasure hunt with fabric. Enjoy!

When I first discovered quilting I was drawn to Baltimore Album quilts. There is so much detail in them that I knew they must have spent years in the making. I then realized that we needed a Baltimore Album pattern for beginning appliquérs. “Simple Yet Elegant” was born.
Use your favorite appliqué technique.

Let’s have fun on International Quilting day (March 18).
Whenever I look at this sweet topper I think of sailing on the open sea. The blues of ocean and sky with a bright yellow sun just makes me smile. I can almost feel the wind blowing my hair and hear the seagulls calling. This would look great on a table with a nautical theme setting. Of course, any colors you choose would be great, too.
The directions are easy to follow and straightforward, making it fun to do. The bonus is in the results: a 33-1/2″ x 33-1/2″ table topper or wall hanging that you can enjoy in your own home or for gift giving at any time of year. Enjoy!

When I think of a serape, I think of something that is bright and colorful in its simplicity. If there are any designs incorporated into the weave, they are usually geometric and repetitive. With these concepts in mind, my Serape Quilt was created.
Because of the repetitive blocks in the pieced rows and the strip piecing in the band rows, this quilt is a good beginner project. With simple straight-line quilting, it can be quilted on your home machine using a walking foot. So pull out your favorite palette of solid colors or tone-on-tone prints and make a “Serape Quilt” of your own.
