Diamond Traditions book is here!

It's out!  I received my copies of my latest book, Diamond Traditions!  I am so excited! 


 
For those of you who were wondering, I am planning on running a blog hop for the book with my favorite bloggers.  It will be held June 17th - 21st and there will be lots of giveaways and great quilts to see. Mark your calendars!

For the debut of my book, I am giving you a special deal.  Until June 1st, 2013, I will discount Diamond Traditions to $14.95, regular $19.95!  Also, I will include a free pattern for the following quilt:

It is called Get to the Point and is another wonderful fat quarter quilt. 

I appreciate everyone and wanted to thank you for supporting me and my patterns!

Here is another quilt that is featured in my book.  Brilliance is a smaller quilt and is perfect for those fabrics that you want to highlight.  It has some bigger spaces to fussy cut your prints or even put photos in.  It looks like framed prints or old fashioned photos.  To continue the diamond theme, you can really see the black diamonds stand out.


Hope everyone enjoys seeing some of the quilts in my book and have a great week!

Happy Friday!  Today is my day to join in the Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks Blog Tour .  Yes, that means that I have a block included in the magazine!  The tour has been going on all week so make sure that you check out the other designers that are involved in the tour.   Here is the cover of the magazine: It's so great that they have printed 7 - 100 Block Magazines!  I am also so proud to say that I have been in all 7 issues!  My block is called Tiara...do you sense a theme these days?  I have a book coming up next week (squee!) called Diamond Traditions and I called this block Tiara...do you think I'm a princess?!  My husband sure thinks so!  Anyway, here is my block: I used the purple colorway of my fabric with Maywood Studio, Royal Gardens .  I love the way this block has a center that you can fussy-cut or use an interested print inside.  It was fun to make and there are so many possibilities to make a quilt with it.  Here are some ideas: Simple on point with s

Hi Everyone! Glad you could drop by for the blog tour.  It is day 2, make sure that you check out all the featured bloggers on the tour.  You can see who is blogging today and all week on Quiltmaker's Blog . My block is called Celtic Cross #775.  Here it is: When the editors of Quiltmaker's first decided  to do this, they had given out forms and information on how to submit a block.  So, I decided to go ahead and try it.  I am so glad that I did!  I have been in every volume and I can't believe that we are on Volume 8!  They have a great thing going.  I thought that I would give you some setting options for my block.  Here are a few: Set straight with no sashing For the second quilt, I added sashing and cornerstones in the quilt and they are shown above.  Now for the giveaways!  Quiltmaker will be giving an issue of Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks Volume 8 to one lucky winner.  I will also be giving a signed copy of Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks Volume 8!

Welcome! It is so nice to once again be included in the magazine and the blog tour!  I love to hear from everyone and hope that you will comment for a chance to win a copy of the magazine plus much more! The block that is included in the Quiltmaker 100 Block Volume 5 is called Diamond Eyes.  It may not be a surprise to some of you that one of my favorite elements in a block and quilts as well, is the diamond shape.  I think it adds beauty to the quilts and some different elements.  Here is my block: Since my husband has been ill and I have been working on getting ready for Market, I decided to do some give-aways instead of a project.  I hope that you understand and although I don't have alot of time, I can do some great give-aways.  If you make a comment, you will be entered to win one of the following: First, the magazine is giving away a copy of the Quiltmaker 100 Blocks Volume 5. Second, my newest rulers will be debuting at Market.  It is a "mini"
