Using the Arlo Templates

Hearts behind the scenes.
Here's a little Hearts behind-the-scenes action. I was looking back through some photos, and found these shots from when I was making my new Hearts quilt. At this stage, I'd gotten all of my hearts ...

Architextures Sunrise.
My Architextures Sunrise quilt comes with a bit of an admission. I made it back in 2012 when Architextures first came out. It was displayed in the Architextures booth at Quilt Market that fall, but I ...
Sunrise Pillow Shams

Instead Sunrise (and some minis).
It's fitting that Sunrise was one of my first patterns. I've always been a morning person, and I love watching the sun come up. There's something special and promising about a new beginning, and this ...
Circles Quilt In Harriot Fabric.
One of the first things I made for the release was this Circles Quilt in Harriot fabric. I couldn't wait to cut up those scallops! They turn into such interesting shapes as both the appliqué and ...
