Something you might not know…

The photos of these quilts were taken on a 107° day! 

I still remember my husband and me hauling these big, heavy quilts around in the blazing heat. We were both sweating and wondering whose idea it was to photograph cozy Christmas quilts in the middle of summer. The things I ask my husband to do for quilty content!

But before long, the weather will change. The leaves will turn, the air will get crisp, and hopefully a blanket of snow will cover the ground. We’ll be curled up inside with a good book, a warm drink, and cozy quilts wrapped around us.

Those are the days I’m already looking forward to.

If you haven’t picked up your Booked for the Holidays and Pixel Flurries patterns yet, now is the perfect time. Start sewing today, and by the time the leaves begin to fall, you’ll have two beautiful quilts ready to make the season even cozier.

 Full – 85” × 85”

Whether you love soft winter neutrals or colorful seasonal prints, Pixel Flurries is a fun project you’ll enjoy making again and again.

Meet Booked for the Holidays!

There is something so magical about curling up with a good book during the holidays. That cozy feeling is exactly what inspired this quilt.

Booked for the Holidays is designed for all your favorite winter reading moments and comes in two sizes:
 Throw: 68” × 68”
 Twin: 68” × 102”

The pattern includes instructions for both the scrappy, assorted-print version featured on the cover and a beautiful solids version (which I’ll be sharing soon!). Fabric requirements and cutting instructions for both options are included, so you can choose the style that fits your sewing journey.

Available now as both a PDF download and a printed booklet.

I hope Booked for the Holidays becomes part of your cozy holiday traditions.  Which version would you make first—scrappy or solids?
