  • Isn’t this Felted Pincushion Hat ultra-adorable? I need one for my sewing area. From Better Homes & Gardens.

  • Here’s a great stash-busting pattern, Wickedly Easy Quilts by Annie. It uses fat quarters, strip cutting and quick piecing. Sizes include crib, lap, twin and queen. Definitely adding this pattern to my To Do list… I love patterns that use fat quarters and are quick to do.

  • Flutterby

    From Moda Fabrics, comes this cute free pattern, Flutterby.

  • Here’s a handy Guide to Batting. I’ve always used 100% cotton batting as I love the weight, warmth and feel. What do you like best?

  • From QuickQuilts, comes New Year’s Sparklers. This quilt is so full of color and sparkle that it lights up a room. It was made using batiks in a delightful variety of beautiful hues to charm the eye. It is simply gorgeous.

    From Quiltmaker, comes this free pattern, Nautical Waves.

  • I just got a Clover Iron this past Christmas, so this Clover Iron Travel Bag will come in handy for me.

    A free block pattern, Penny Rugs, from Connecting Threads. I adore the fabrics used in this block. Approx. Finished Size 9″. I am impressed with the Connecting Threads fabrics and Canadian-friendly web site, and plan to order some of their fabric kits when I return to Canada.

  • A pretty pattern for Spring, Bubblegum Crossing, from Quilter’s Newsletter.
