What's New in June!

English Garden and Poinsettia Bouquet Are Now Available!

These patterns showcase an intricate and beautiful flower basket block surrounding a lone star element with a combination of border options to achieve either a wall or queen size quilt!  The patterns are now available for purchase on our website, and the fabric lines are available in a quilt shop near you!  

The English Garden design is 99” x 99” and features Kaffe Fassett Collective prints!  The Poinsettia Bouquet is 77” x 77” and uses a line of fabric by RJR called Let It Sparkle!  This pattern includes newsprint instructions, and pre-cut applique stabilizer sheets to make the quilt shown on the coversheet.  We are very excited to announce that a companion product from Vanessa Fromm at Fabric Confetti is available to add a digitized embroidery design to the flower baskets on either of these designs!  The patterns are part of the Cattails Mixer collection and there are both Queen (99” x 99”) and Wall Quilt (77” x 77”) designs available.

You can purchase the English Garden or Poinsettia Bouquet as a pattern only on our website or in your local quilt shop.  Several shop owners across the industry will have kits so ask at your local quilt shop or a Certified Shop near you! 

They are also available for you to audition your own colorways in the Quiltster App!  If you’ve never heard of Quiltster, it’s an incredible fabric auditioning software that allows you to pick and choose fabrics before you spend money.

Wholesale purchases are available to those approved with a wholesale account. Visit our wholesale page to order (minimum purchase of 3 and advance approval of wholesale account is required). These patterns are also available through Checker Distributors.


English Garden
99″ x 99″ • Fabrics: Kaffe Fassett

Part of the Cattail Mixer Queen patterns, English Garden has 4 Groups (A, B, C & D), which use the Basket Star, Flower Basket, Satin and Lace Border, and the Princess Tiara Queen Expansion Package mixer blocks.  The pattern includes instructions, cover sheet, yardage information, foundation papers, and pre-cut applique sheets for the flower baskets.

If you want to add an extra special touch to this quilt, Vanessa from Fabric Confetti has developed a digital Flower Basket Embroidery Pattern designed to fit the laser cut applique shapes.


Poinsettia Bouquet
77″ x 77″ • Fabric:  RJR – Let it Sparkle

The Poinsettia Bouquet design was created using a series of mixer blocks from the Cattail Mixer Wall Quilt series.  It includes 3 Groups (A, B, and C) and is made up of the Razor Star, Flower Basket, and the Picket Fence Border mixer blocks.

This pattern is also compatible with Fabric Confetti’s digital Flower Basket Embroidery Pattern designed by Vanessa to outline the laser cut applique shapes.

Windy Day Book
by Judy and Judel Niemeyer

The Windy Day book features six layouts, ranging from a small wall quilt to a quilt for a twin size bed. Complete these layouts using your favorite fabrics, or add paper pieced Charm Elements published by Quiltworx.com to achieve a fun quilt layout perfect for nearly every occasion!

The 12” Creative Grids Wave Ruler designed by Judy Niemeyer is a required notion for the projects in this book, but the paper piecing elements are optional!
