Quilter At Work

It’s a little hanger to hang on the doorknob of your sewing room door.  I hope you like it.

Check into my blog on Saturday, to download the pattern. And remember to set by some time on Saturday to sew on Worldwide Quilting Day.

Free Pattern Day: Snowball Quilts

The snowball pattern is one of the best-known of all Amish quilt blocks. It is a pattern that fools the eye by creating an optical illusion.

Snowballs are easily formed by taking a square of cloth and sewing a triangle across each of the 4 corners. Here are some inspiring quilts and free patterns!
