Here’s a few of the wallhanging size quilt kits. . . . .

The Photo Collage Quilt Kit has everything needed to complete this unique wallhanging.  All you have to add is the pictures.   Great for a baby shower, wedding, anniversary.  Or use it to remember a family vacation.

Any of these quilt kits would make a great gift for a new quilter…. or even an experienced one!

Have you ever made a quilt with lilies?  With slender graceful lines and pure colors, they certainly add beauty to your projects.

Calla Lilies, with a stained glass look, seem to bloom right out of this wallhanging.  From Designs by Edna, fusible web and fusible bias tape are used with Edna’s clear instructions, including a numbering system for laying out the bias tape.

These Lovely Lilies are usually seen in large clusters along the country roads or in wide borders and the splash of color is beautiful. Surrounded by a pieced border this single stem boldly shines on its own.

Cottage Lily combines machine applique lily blocks with chain blocks.  I like the way the fabric choice for the chain blocks allows them to fade to the background and softly surround the flowers. 

Beautiful as a baptism or christening quilt this Whole Cloth Quilt features lilies of the valley and calla lilies.  One of the swags can be substituted with the baby name and a date.  This quilt is sure to become a family treasure.

Lilies in the Field is made entirely from piecing – not one bit of applique.  Lily blocks alternate with a modified Double Irish Chain.   Instructions are included for a bed size (74″ x 98″), a lap size (50″ x 74″) and a tablerunner (20″ x 44″).

And . . . just for fun . . . Your Pad or Mine?  with two flirting frogs each on their own lily pad.  A third lily pad floats nearby.  Constructed with paper piecing.

Birdhouses are a popular addition to many quilts.  Whether made by piecing, paper piecing or applique, they add a special something.  It’s fun to play with different fabrics for the houses and roofs.  Stripes and plaids look great.  Then you can add some more texture and interest with your quilting… parallel lines for boards on the walls, angles lines or scallops for the roof.

The Birdhouse Welcome wallhanging pattern can be made from  charm squares or you can raid your scrap bin.  Full size letter templates are included – you choose the applique method.  Finished size is 12″ by 28″. 

Spring Row Quilt is shown here in just a few colors, but with eleven birdhouses and lots of flowers and vines you could have so much fun playing with color and fabric. 

This is SO CUTE!!!  And just in time for Easter, too.  Quick Cozy Quilts series are patterns for three individual wallhangings.  Make just one or all three.  Each looks great on its own but are designed to look well together, also.

Love Grows… wall hanging features piecework and fusible applique.  Mary Kerr of Just My Imagination has written clear, easy-to-follow instructions.  The 16″ x 17″ wallhanging is embellished with ribbon (for the ivy) and yoyo flowers.

Kathy Sabatino designed these placemats and tablerunner with birdhouse duplexes… fully occupied; no vacancies In The Neighborhood.  The table runner has a birdhouse at each end and the middle has been left empty for a centerpiece.

Lovebird Lane Block of the Month is one of my favorites.  It’s so bright and cheerful. Each birdhouse has its own personality.  The border really completes the beautiful, romantic look of the quilt.

Periwinkle Lane Block 5 is another one of my favorites.  Of course, I like all the Periwinkle Lane blocks.  They are so colorful, fun to make, and the embroidery is just the right accent for the crayons.

Oops… gotta go. All this talk of birdhouses reminded me… I have to go put out seed for the birds!

Spingtime means rain and rainbows.  While you are stuck inside waiting for the rainbows to appear, here’s a few patterns to keep you busy.

Grab some bright colorful charm squares and create this beautiful Rainbow Garden.   This pattern uses simple applique and no curved piecing.  What a cheerful quilt to decorate a little girl’s bedroom. 

Bold fabric colors are showcased in Rainbow Crystals tablerunner and placemats.  There is no paper piecing or templates, just stack, slice and mix.  A great hostess gift and no two will be the same.

Hannah’s Rainbow quilt pattern is fat quarter friendly.  Moda Marbles, tone on tones, or very small print fabrics that read as solids work best.  The more different fabrics you use the more seamless the color transition will be. The rainbow binding really adds to the look.

Noah’s Big Job is an adorable wallhanghing that captures Noah as he prepares for the big rain.  Pair of animals are tucked in his pouch, he has a list in one hand and bird’s nest in the other.  Instructions are included for the rainbow sign and the wooden birds.

Rain, Rain Go Away is the April block from Indygo Junction’s Once Upon A Time… In The Country quilt.  It works as a small wallhanging all by itself.  I remember the next line of the saying as “Come again another day” – I like that it hasn’t been added – we wouldn’t mean it anyway!

Rainy Days by Bonnie Kaster will make you glad you are sewing and quilting instead of outside in the rain wrestling with your umbrella.   The silhouette applique shapes can be done by hand or machine.  You can almost feel the wind!

The winner of our Fat Quarter Giveaway was chosen at random from all the subscribers to our newsletter.  Receiving 20 Fat Quarters will be Sandra Drake of Waka, Texas.  Congrats, Sandra!

Even cuter than the real thing are stuffed bunnies.  Use them to decorate in the Spring and for Easter.  You have time to make one or more.   Sew one or two this year,  another one or two next year, soon you’ll have a colony of bunnies.

Welcome Bunny greets your visitors with an armful of carrots and flowers.  My guess is that he’ll surrender the flowers before he lets go of those carrots!  He’d also make a great wallhanging inside the house.

Blossom Bunny is dressed in a beautiful jacket and hat embellished with yo-yos, embroidery and buttons.  Instructions are also included for the embellished friendship poem sampler.

These bunnies on a Carrot Top would look adorable lined up in a planter box or even just one in a flower pot would look so cute on your front porch.  Have fun playing with different fabrics for their bowties…. let your bunnies express themselves!  There’s anothe pattern for Cabbage Top bunnies.

These little helpers will hold all your Bunny Stuff.  Fill with candy and give one to your grandchild.  Or fill his basket with hand towels and let him hold court on the sink in the guest powder room.

Ester Macbunny has seen a few Easters in her days.   You’ll have lots of fun making her and then even more fun making her clothes and accessories.   The pattern has easy to follow instructions and includes the wire needed for Ester’s glasses plus lots of ideas for her accessories. 

 Have you seen anybunny you like?
