Watermelon Crawl is shown here as how it would look with 3 fabrics. It could also be made with your scraps for a gorgeous scrappy look. Or just make the “watermelons” in the block with an assortment of pink/red fabrics for some scrappiness.

Quilt Block Dash is a fun online shop hop where you receive parts of this free pattern and instructions from each shop that you hop to.  While in the shops, you will find some favorite fabrics and notions. You will also be entered into a free drawing at the end of the Quilt Block Dash for prizes from the shops you visit.

Quilt and fabric shops – join in with the Quilt Block Dash to get more visitors into your stores. Its also a great way to showcase your sales!  Its easy for all.

Meanwhile, I’m going through all my images of exciting things I saw at the International Quilt Market in Portland, OR and will be posting them soon! With my iPhone, it is so easy to keep snapping away, so I end up with tons of pictures to go through.

Check out the Quilt Block Dash and be a part of some quilting fun!

Free Patterns for Bee Yourself Fabrics

  By , , , ,

“Bee Yourself” fabrics that I designed for Quilting Treasures shows bees in their favorite hobbies.  There is a bee for everyone! I’ve talked about the fabric collection in prior posts, but want to let you know about some free patterns for “Bee Yourself”. Quilting Treasures has several patterns that I designed with this fabric collection, available for free download on their website.  With these 4 patterns, there is plenty of inspiration and sewing for you.

Free Pattern Bee Yourself Quilt Quilting Treasures

This “Bee Yourself” quilt is 53″ x 65″ inches in size with multi borders.  The blocks are pieced using the bee blocks in the panel fabric, surrounded by the black “words” fabric to make the blocks “pop”.

Bee Yourself Table Runner free pattern from Quilting Treasures

This table runner will add a delightful touch to your table or chest.  The finished size is 66″ x 18″.

Bee Yourself Tote Bag and Placemats

Create a tote bag to carry your quilt or sewing projects to your guild meetings or classes, or use for shopping to show off which “bee” you are. This free tote bag pattern is a great size – 16″ w x 10 1/2″ h x 5 1/2″ d. In addition, this placemat can add some fun as well as color to your table setting. The size is 19 1/2″ x 14 3/4″ and has instructions and yardage for making in sets of 2.

These patterns are in 2 downloadable pdf’s – one with the quilt instructions and the other with the instructions for the placemat, table runner, and tote bag.

To see these projects on display at the 2012 Fall International Quilt Market in Houston last October, read about it on my prior post about Quilt Market.  But this is not all – you can see some other “Bee Yourself” projects that were displayed at Quilt Market.  I will have the decorative pillow, apron, pot holders and smaller tote bag posted here shortly.

“Sew,” while the weather is cold and chilly, you can have fun sewing and quilting with these patterns!

Hugs,
