Going Scrappy with a Pattern

Written by Diane Harris on . Posted in Blog, How-tos and Ideas, Inspiration, Trunk Shows

One of my favorite freelance jobs is with Annie’s Craft Catalog and Quilter’s World magazine. Each month I do a Facebook Live and talk about one of their pattern. I love putting my scrappy spin on things and it’s a great opportunity to be seen by their followers, who number in the hundreds of thousands.

The Healing Quilt designed by Lyn Brown, patterned in Quilter’s World, Summer 2021.

For the July FB Live, I chose the Healing Quilt designed by Lyn Brown. It is perfect for demonstrating how you can take a pattern that’s shown in just a few fabrics and scrap it up into a happy party!

One Hot Mess, and Its Redemption

Giveaway next week: EQ8 quilt design software! And a promo code at the bottom of this post for a nice discount, too!

There are times when a certain quilt just doesn’t work out. We all know that any number of things can go wrong. This is the story of a quilt that I designed in EQ8, which was its usual powerful self.

But then everything went wrong. And then I rescued it (virtually), also in EQ8. So you know up front that we are going to have a happy ending. But I’m getting ahead of myself.
