Current Project

I am currently working on the pattern for a quilt that I have designed.  The fabric that I am using is the Garden Song Collection by Nancy Halvorsen for Benartex.  The design uses 10-1/2" squares, but it can be adapted for a Layer Cake or a Sweet 16 Roll.  I have tried these other options and I am incorporating them into the pattern instructions.  I hope to have the pattern ready by next week and then I will be able to post a picture of it.  Creating the design is the easy part, writing the pattern is the difficult part.  I have found that I can explain the process, but when it comes to writing it down I find myself taking so much time to find the right words and illustrations.  I also need to get a pattern pulled together for the Renegade Spring Fever Fabric Run Shop on April 29th thru May 2nd.  Nothing like waiting until the last moment to get things going.  I think I am going to use the Old Glory V collection from Windham Fabrics.  It is a reproduction collection of reds, blues and browns!

    Hi Everyone!  My name is Melanie Barrett and I have been quilting for 15 short years now.  I worked in a quilt shop for 7 of those years and I owned a quilt shop for the other 8.  Recently I decided to close the brick and mortar store and concentrate on online sales.  My favorite types of quilts to make are small and mini size.  I don't have a favorite fabric style, I like them all.  I find that my tastes change as I grow up!

    Splendid!
