I LOVE working with felt! The edges don't fray, it's delightfully warm, it takes embroidery beautifully, and it comes in the most luscious colors. But it's different than regular fabric. These tips will make it super easy to work with. Why wool felt? It's way more durable that the cheap acrylic stuff you can buy

Today I'm keeping it really simple and sharing five of my favorite, beginner-friendly, modern quilt patterns. If you're just starting out - these are the perfect ones for you! Mudroom Quilt Pattern This quilt pattern is great for beginners because it is repetitive and includes some super simple blocks. There also aren't many colors that need to be selected, so that keeps things super simple! Leaded Light Quilt Pattern I know I shouldn't choose favorites but this is my favorite! (Shh... don't tell the others!) This pattern includes several options for layout so you could use a variety of colors. The assembly is super simple and repetitive so once you get in the groove - you're golden! Perfect Placement Quilt Pattern This pattern is also very repetitive and the only challenge I would say is staying organized so all your blocks end up in the right place. This modern quilt pattern is also perfect for showing off any prints you want to see! Playroom Quilt Pattern This is another one of my all time favorite quilt patterns. It's so simple and repetitive. There is a lot of room left for trimming so your blocks end up square! I also love that it's only two colors so the decision making process is super easy up front. Close-Knit Quilt Pattern This pattern is starting to become a favorite of mine just because I love how many varieties there are! You can choose so many different colors for this quilt and it looks totally different. It makes a pretty big baby size quilt which I also love! I've made this one quite a few times and am always pleasantly surprised with how fast it goes! You might also enjoy reading: A Guide to Beginner Quilting What is Modern Quilting? Sewing Studio Tour

It's a funny thing, how quickly five years can fly by. Today is my blog's 5th anniversary. I went back a couple days ago, to revisit that first post . (The image from the post lost in the shuffle during a blog transfer a few years ago.) I'm not sure how long I thought I'd be blogging back in 20
Reminiscent of an old-school thermos, Happy Camper is perfect for summer camping trips and family picnics. I wanted this design to reflect nostalgic images of summer camp and vintage outdoor gear. Happy Camper is recommended for an intermediate-skilled quilter. It is an on-point quilt that uses several large setting triangles that can become stretched if not careful. It also requires blocks to be cut in half which requires precision. This pattern is written for two colorways: a bold five-color version and a limited, but more modern, three-color version. It also includes 4 sizes: a baby quilt size, a small throw, a large throw, and a bed size. This is a PDF digital copy. Please make sure that you enter a valid email address at checkout. Your pattern will be emailed to you. It can be viewed on your phone/computer or printed on standard 8.5" x 11" paper. If you have trouble with the initial download, try using a different browser, or a laptop/desktop. 4 sizes: Baby (42" x 42"), Small Throw (56" x 56"), Large Throw (71" x 71"), and Bed (85" x 85") 2 Colorways: Five-Color and Three-Color Versions Skill Level: Intermediate Width of fabric (WOF) must be at least 42". If it is less than 42", you may need more yardage. Pattern is for personal use only. Duplication of any kind is prohibited. You may sell quilts that you create using Modern Moon Quilt patterns, but please give design credit to Modern Moon Quilt Studio.
