Fletcher Chevron Quilt Kit–new colors available!

We’ve had this Fletcher Chevron quilt hanging above the register for a short time now and a few months ago I showed you the yellow and gray quilt kit that was available.  Well, we now have a mint and gray color combo in a kit too!

The kit (either mint / gray or yellow / gray) is $72 and makes a quilt that is 60” x 72”.  The kit includes everything you’ll need for the quilt front and binding. 

Purchase a kit in the store, or by calling 801-225-3123

Snowtime!

Anyone else having a busy Friday?  I thought I’d pop in quickly and give you a peek at a new display quilt.  It’s made using a pattern called “Snowtime” by Coach House Designs.  It makes a nice throw size quilt – perfect for those cold, snowy December evenings!

Trendsetter

I can’t get enough of the mint / coral / navy color combination!  How about you?  So I’m really loving this new line from Riley Blake called Trendsetter. 

Need some ideas on how to use it? 

This cute quilt pattern is a free download from the Riley Blake website.  The finished quilt measures 53” x 59” (Throw size quilt).  You can download and print the pattern from here and then bring it with you to The Fabric Mill to select your fabrics!

The next idea comes from the Riley Blake Blog.  It’s a fast four-patch quilt tutorial created by Amy Smart (Diary of a Quilter).  Read the tutorial here.  The finished quilt measures 40” x 56”.  This would be a great project for a beginning quilter!

For this quilt you’ll need 1-1/4 background print, 1/8 yard each of 8 different prints, 1-3/4 yard backing and 3/8 yard binding. 

Eagle Scout quilt kit now available!

 We’ve had a lot of requests for this in the past and I’m happy to say that we now have an Eagle quilt kit available!  This quilt would be a nice gift for your favorite Eagle Scout. 

The quilt pattern uses an eagle fabric panel in the center of the quilt so it’s a fairly quick and easy quilt to make!

The quilt kit is $56 (includes the pattern) and can be purchased at The Fabric Mill or over the phone by calling (801-225-3123)

Fancy Free

This bright and happy fabric line is called Fancy Free (Riley Blake) and is one of our newest fabric lines here in the shop!

The fat quarters are cut and ready for your next project!

Check out this cute bicycle print – isn’t it sweet?  We have it in this lovely mint color as well as yellow and pink.

This adorable quilt pattern is a free download from the Riley Blake website.  The finished quilt measures 69” x 84”.  Click here to download and print the pattern and then stop by The Fabric Mill to gather all of the fabric you’ll need!  (I have to just say that I love the pieced border!  What a fun idea!)

Monsters!

 Monsters?  Yep - cute ones!  The silly, googly-eyed monsters are the best part of this quilt.  All sorts of bright and fun prints are paired with the monsters to make an adorable kids' quilt.

The finished size is 42" x 49" and the pattern can be found in this book called Little Quilts 4 Little Kids (by Heather Mulder Peterson).  We just love this book - it's full of such wonderful quilt patterns - all for kids!

The kit can be purchased for $35.50 either by stopping by The Fabric Mill or by calling 801-225-3123.

"Fall"ing for a Jelly Roll Race quilt

 Autumn is on it's way!  We're starting to see some fall colors popping up in the mountains- and here in the shop.  We have these pretty fall colored jelly rolls available - these are custom jelly rolls hand cut here in the shop from some of our very favorite fall prints!

 And we've used one of those custom jelly roll bundles to make an updated version of the Jelly Roll Race quilt!

You can see our original Jelly Roll Race display quilt here, and see the free online video tutorial on how to make a Jelly Roll Race here.  But because we did a few things different than the video tutorial, we have a 1 page pattern showing you how to make this same, gorgeous fall quilt.  When you stop by to grab the custom jelly roll, be sure to ask for the pattern that goes with it!  (pattern is free with purchase of a jelly roll)

Want to see more fun, Jelly Roll Race quilts?  We have a Pinterest board to provide inspiration!  And while you're there, be sure to follow us!

Under The Sea Baby Quilt (free tutorial)

Last week I used some of the In the Ocean fabric to make a quick baby gift for a friend of mine.  I used the Simple Gifts Baby Quilt Tutorial and whipped it up in no time!

This sweet quilt finished at 38” x 42” which is a great size for a little one.

Want to make one too?  Here’s what you’ll need:

First of all, the tutorial can be found here.

1-1/4 yard front fabric**

1-1/4 yard backing**
1/3 yard binding
batting: a piece at least 42” x 42”

**The original tutorial calls for just 1-1/8 of each fabric but for this quilt I bought 1-1/4 of both the front and the back because I needed to work around those squares.

The cheater print makes this quilt look like a cute Ocean-themed patchwork quilt!

Here are the rest of the In The Ocean prints.  I think any combination of these fabric would make a cute Simple Gift Baby Quilt!
