Jack Brockette sent along this photo -- his wife Ann took it, I think.

The exhibit was curated by Mary Ruth... Read Full Story
Here's is the quilt that I kept talking about...I love this quilt, I think it is so fun! It's totally the fruit stripe gum quilt to me; do you think the Wrigley corporation will come after me for calling it that? Hope not. Can you think of a better name? I'm open to all suggestions.
A few things about this quilt
Again, these blocks are sewn on to non-fusible/non-woven interfacing. Can you imagine trying to deal with all of those bias edges?
I used a flip and sew method to... Read Full Story
One quilt in, two quilts out...busy, busy, busy. Two little quilts are on their way to Las Vegas, and one little quilt has come home. Jukebox is home from Fons and Porter's store where it has been on display as a sample - it was so exciting to see it again! The two quilts the on way to Vegas? Baby, I do ! This is one of my top secrets that I've been dying to share...here's a little peek!
Don't you love these pears? I can't wait till this fabric by Robert Kaufman is released in... Read Full Story
First of all - thank you to everyone that entered the I Do Quilt Pattern Drawing! We received some comments from new folks, who kindly introduced themselves; which was great. We always love new friends from near and far.
The winners of the I Do Quilt Pattern were Linda from the Netherlands, and Jennifer from Virginia. I Do! is the perfect pattern for a quick weekend project, and I can't wait to see your creations. One of the most rewarding aspects of being a pattern designer is... Read Full Story
"Dreaming: The Beach" detail, 2008 We artists in this world of textiles, fiber art, quilting go round and round about terms. Is what I do textile painting, fiber art, art quilts, studio art quilts? Why is it important? For one thing, if we are to ever have a broader understanding (perhaps, demand or desire) for our chosen medium, we want that broader public to "get it." Some of us making what have become known as "art quilts" as opposed to "bed quilts" come from traditional quilting... Read Full Story
Everytime I think that surely the whole world is into art quilts I meet someone who looks puzzled and asks me "huh?" Quilts hung on the wall is sort of part of it, but many people also hang their "traditional" quilts on the wall. And, frankly, I'm not so sure that the borderline between traditional and art quilts is all that clear in the minds of many who even like to tinker in the trappings.
I certainly don't want to replay the whole art vs. craft discussion here, nor do I believe... Read Full Story
We have been very busy worker bees at Cherry House Quilts, we will be releasing three quilt patterns - one right after the other. The first is our Forest Friends quilt pattern, and the 2nd pattern we will be releasing is our Baby, I Do! These are such fun, quick patterns for all the über hipster babies out there. This quilt features Robert Kaufman's wonderful pear fabric from the Fruit Basket Line , and Kona Cotton Solids. As soon as I saw this fabric I knew the quilts that I... Read Full Story
Lately there has been a great deal of interest in our City Blocks Quilt Pattern - lots of Internet searches for it, and sales of the pattern. It's funny how these cycles work, I'm never sure what drives them, but I'm all for it! This is such a great pattern, absolutely fab for big bold prints that are too lovely, or special to chop up in little bits. It's also great for getting your toes wet in regards to working with solids, if this is something that is new to you. Just think of all of... Read Full Story
Hi Friends,
It's been so exciting to see the 1000's (literally) of folks that have downloaded our free Housewares Quilt Pattern ! We hope that you will enjoy it, and make lots & lots of quilts, with lots & lots of Lizzy Dish fabric. The block that makes up the quilt is one large block, used 4 times. I thought it would be fun to play around on EQ6 and look at some of the variations that could be created playing around the with arrangement. Some of the blocks are mirror images, and some...
