Over the past few weeks, we’ve been talking about the new books that we are featured in–75 Fun Fat Quarter Quilts from C&T Publications.
This book is a compilation of 14 different designers and 13 quilts. Â Each designer then took their quilt pattern or block and gave several variations on it.
Here are some of the quilts that are included in the book:
Don’t you just love this one?!?! I love how the stars pop so much, they almost look like confetti!
This is another of my faves! Â I love the simplicity of it.
I really love the color scheme of this one! Â I would be a little bit afraid after seeing navy and teal together, but surely not after seeing this beauty!
This next one though, is definitely my favorite. Â Why? Â It’s the quilt that mom and I designed and submitted!
As you can see, we focused all of our designed on a simple churn and dash quilt block. Â All of the other quilt designs that we submitted use the churn and dash block, but in a different layout or with different backgrounds or some blocks to create a secondary pattern.
We did make one of our variations so far…this quilt. Â You can read more about that quilt here.
Most of the quilts that we designed for the book are larger lap sized.
So now your thinking “I WANT THAT BOOK!!” Â Well my friends, no fear! Â We have added this book to our online store for you to purchase it here. Â We currently have the books listed, but have not received them to ship. Â We are anticipating receiving them in December and will be shipping them as soon as we receive them–They’d make the perfect Christmas gift! Â While you’re there ordering, you can add a calendar to your cart for only $15.00 plus shipping, but if you don’t want to pay shipping at all, you can order a copy of our book, Country Girl Modern, 7 Fun Fat Quarter Quilts, and the 2016 American Patchwork and Quilting Calendar. Â The calendar sells for $24.95 in stores so this is a great deal…but wait… You will need to choose the bundle option for this special free shipping offer. Â This special offer will not ship until we received the 75 Fun Fat Quarter Quilt books. Â Canadian and International shipping has been reduced but aren’t free.
I hope you love this new compilation book as much as we do! Â We had a blast designing all of the different variations of our quilt and can’t wait to see what the other authors have done also! Â We’ll be running this deal from now through December 1st but be warned once we run out of calendars we can’t order more…so this is first come first serve and only while supplies last!!
Getting this all together is what we’ve been working on this weekend. Â We’re so happy we can finally share it with you!
Awesome! Congratulations!
How fun! Congrats on the new book!
For sure congratulations!!! I just love that, “another book,” sound don’t you? Haha! I can’t imagine how exciting it must be to be published! And I do love your quilt! It’s great! I can see that almost every type of quilter would slow down and take a look because you can start imagining all types of fabrics and colors with it and know that it would still come out fantastic looking. And I do dearly love that stars quilt you showed, which is surprising because I’m not normally drawn to orang. It’s so fantastic, I would want to make it in the orange! In fact I like all the quilts you showed me, how very sneaky and clever of you, haha! Well, I’m off to go poke around your blog, i watch too many as it is, now, sigh, I can’t keep adding more. But what is a person to do when there are so many talented, nice, generous people around? You have to support then!
