NOTE: Due to a family vacation, this pattern will not be shipped until July 16th. The 9-Patch Scrappy Stars printed paper pattern uses simple piecing and scrap-busting techniques to make fun, gorgeous quilts. It is perfect for someone who is looking to use up a lot of scraps or for a beginning quilter who wants to start with a very do-able quilt. It is a perfect 'first quilt' to make with your kids or grandkids and a fun fast finish for an experienced quilter. The strip piecing instructions make cutting and piecing a breeze. You don't even have to make half-square triangles to get those fun star points! The pattern is fat quarter, fat eighth, and 2 1/2" strip friendly. Yardage and cutting instructions are given for seven different sizes of quilts so there are a ton of options (crib, toddler, small throw, large throw, twin, queen, and king). The pattern has 12 full color pages and measures 8 1/2" x 5 1/2". You may make and sell quilts made using this pattern as a small independent seller. Please credit the pattern design as Leila Gardunia Design.
Purchase your copy of the Close-Knit Quilt Pattern here! The third pattern in our series is here y'all! I know you're not supposed to pick favorites, but this one honestly takes the cake for me. I have had a lot of fun making different versions of this one and I connect a lot to the inspiration behind this one. Let's dig in! Another aspect of Scandinavian homes is their creation of a cozy atmosphere. Their winters can be long and very harsh so a cozy spot to gather with family and friends inside is important. So, important that the Danish have actually given this concept a name - Hygge. Purchase your copy of the Close-Knit Quilt Pattern here! Scandinavian homes are designed around the center, gathering place of the home. The Close-Knit Quilt Pattern is a nod to this concept. Each block works its way towards a small center block that represents the heart of the home. We spend a lot of our time as a family snuggled up on the living room sectional watching movies when the weather is bad. I kind of love these days! This quilt kit above is available in my shop! Grab your quilt kit here! This concept is also a modern take on the Log Cabin Quilt. Log Cabin Quilts are composed of Log Cabin Blocks. Throughout history you can see these arranged in tons of different ways to create really vibrant quilt patterns. The Log Cabin Block is said to have been created around 1863. Because the pieces are fairly small this also allowed people to use scraps of old fabric they had laying around their homes. That sounds like the practicality of Scandinavian design to me! Reduce, reuse, recycle right?! Purchase your copy of the Close-Knit Quilt Pattern here! I hope you will enjoy making this pattern as much as I did. It really does create some unique designs depending on your fabric choices.

This joyful, log cabin-style quilt reminds me of a little cabin in the countryside surrounded by gorgeous blue flowers. The fabric came together with the inspiration of a bundle of beautiful blue floral fabrics. I used white-on-white fabrics in the other half of the log cabin square. It is truly are special quilt. The backing is coneflower blue. The top quilting echoes the log rectangles and is made using a thicker heavy-weight thread. I wanted a simple pattern to create a sense of peace as you gaze upon it. Inside is a perfectly warm, heavy-weight cotton wool batting to keep warm on cold evenings. It also helps to highlight the top quilting. The binding is machine top-quilted for added strength. Created as a lap size 45”x 60” this is a perfect fit for fitting over your upper waist and feet. Finally, a throw that is big enough to actually keep you warm! It would be a great focal piece in a living room or draped over the foot of the bed to bring beauty to your bedroom. This quilt includes: • Heirloom Quality Construction using Designer Fabrics & Machine Top-Quilting • Handmade in the USA with a Fair Wage • Fully Machine Washable • Color-Catcher for First Wash - prevents Dark Colors from bleeding into light ($3 value) • Care Instruction Magnet for your washer ($12 value) • Storage Bag ($25 value) And a Lifetime of Delight!
