This morning I uploaded my new complimentary pattern, “A Well-Dressed Table”!  It features reversible blossom-shaped placemats in my Ambrosia fabric with matching lined napkins. 

I was thrilled to see that many of you who signed up for the Fat Quarter Shop Swiss Chocolate giveaway last week were interested in doing home-dec projects with that line.  Swiss Chocolate prints would work well with this pattern as well – you could do one side in the chocolate color story and one side in the mocha!  (I’ll be introducing a complimentary table runner  pattern for Swiss Chocolate soon.)

If you get a chance to whip some of these up in any fabric, please post them to my pattern Flickr group. 
Happy sewing!

The February/March version of Quilters Newsletter came today.

My diamond quilt, “Just Dessert” is on page 68! Don’t let the diamonds fool you into thinking this might too difficult a project – this quilt is made with strip sets. If you have only made things with squares and rectangles this is a good next step to expend your piecing skills. (You can pick up yardage for this quilt at the Fat Quarter Shop.)

Also in this issue, a GREAT memorial article on Bonnie Leman.

Hope you have a great week!

Julie, of Jaybird Quilts, emailed me a link to an image she found this morning. Tina, thanks for making this bag in Ambrosia! I love the springtime colors I LOVE it!
