The Persephone quilt pattern was inspired by the Greek myth of Persephone, goddess of the spring and rebirth, and by the new growth that emerges from the ground every spring. This pattern is rated as intermediate, but could likely be completed by an advanced beginner as well. This pattern comes in a baby, square throw, rectangle throw, or bed size.

This pattern was inspired by Asteria; the goddess of falling stars and astrology. It features HRTs, HSTs, and Flying Geese - but just a few of each, so it’s some fun variety! This pattern has a baby, throw, and queen size. This pattern also has an on-demand video class that walks you through all of the skills required, with a special focus on my newest favorite HRT trimming method!

The Lily Pattern is close to my heart, as it was designed in honor of my daughter and released for her 1st birthday. This block based patten is a delightful combination between geometric symmetry and curved, floral shapes. While this pattern features many curved blocks, I’ve given extra room for trimming in the templates and provided both a blog tutorial and video tutorials to help you trim these curved blocks to perfection! This pattern can be made with 4 colors of yardage or a fat quarter bundle, and is available in a baby, throw, or queen size with optional borders. This sample was quilted by Kristin VanKampen and photographed by Amy Wennerlind and Amy Garro. Photos 3 and 5 by Christina West.
The sample colors can be replicated with either Art Gallery Fabrics Pure Solids or Kona Cotton:
Color A: AGF Pacific or Kona Seafoam
Color B: AGF Zambia Stone or Kona Emerald
Color C: AGF Spruce or Kona Sage
Background: AGF Snow or Kona White
