Check out fun ideas for using the free Lotta Love Blocks on the Havel’s Sewing blog to create sweet Valentine’s coasters.

With the release of the free Lotta Love Blocks pattern, I’ve got all things Valentine’s on the brain. And there’s no shortage of heart-themed projects available on the blog, so if you’re looking to celebrate the holiday this month or anytime you want to show some love, read on!

Hi, everyone! I cannot believe it’s already February. It seems like we were just chatting One Scrappy Santa yesterday, but now we’re on to hearts and pink and love. To celebrate this new season, I’m excited to share a “lovely” new tutorial with you over on the Havel’s Sewing blog!

You’ve seen the ombré quilt version of One Scrappy Santa, as well as its coordinating pillow, so now it’s time for all the details on the scrappy quilt! I’ll admit that when I designed this pattern, I was originally planning on only doing the ombré version, but the more I worked on it, the more I knew there had to be a version that utilized precuts and/or scraps, and I’m so glad I did it.

One Scrappy Santa isn’t just a quilt pattern — it includes a pillow option, too, and in this post, I want to tell you all about the coordinating ombre pillow I made to match the cover quilt.

I’m so excited to show you my newest pattern, just in time for some quick and easy holiday sewing: meet One Scrappy Santa, my first holiday-inspired quilt pattern! It uses half-rectangle triangles and a rectangle patchwork background to highlight a giant Santa hat. Choose an ombré or scrappy version for a Throw quilt and/or coordinating pillow. You won’t regret making both.

All the cool breezes and pumpkins popping up on porches got me in the mood to put out my Halloween decorations, which of course also got me in the mood for some Halloween sewing. Join me with this Halloween sewing projects round up of blocks, quilts, and other holiday projects!

I’m so excited to announce my latest pattern, Tiled, is in the newest issue of Make Modern magazine. And not just that, but she’s on the cover! This throw quilt design was inspired by bathroom tiles -- you can really find inspiration anywhere you look. A simple block rotated and sashed makes for a truly dramatic finish, one that could go in so many different directions depending on your fabric choices.

To help me celebrate the release of the Clayton pattern, I’ve partnered with Havel’s Sewing for a very exciting giveaway! One lucky winner will win a copy of the Clayton pattern plus four amazing Havel’s items that I used to make my quilts.

Is it a firefly? A butterfly? A bow? Whatever it is, it’s one very cute big-stitch binding stitch! Check out this video tutorial to add another fun big-stitch variation to your repertoire!

I’m so very excited to introduce the latest in my collection of beginner-friendly patterns, the Clayton quilt! This modern-traditional design is tailor made for solids and small-scale prints and goes together in a flash!

If the hot summer days have you longing for a simple, sweet quilt to whip up, I’ve got just the thing for you — a series of five popsicle-themed quilts so you can satisfy your sewing sweet tooth in multiple sizes and styles.

I’m excited to reveal a new FREE quilt pattern for you and all your summer sewing needs with a spin celebrating the iconic (trademarked, wink) American popsicle we’ve all loved since our earliest ice-cream truck days. The strip-pieced Rocket Pops throw quilt goes together so fast and is the perfect backdrop for summer picnics.

Today I’m sharing one of my favorite quilt finishes, the High Top Mountain quilt. Last year, my brother asked if I’d make a quilt based on the cover art of a favorite Sturgill Simpson album. You know I love a challenge, so I was all in, and that precious baby is now the owner of the quilt I probably spent the most hours on of anything I’ve ever made. But, of course, it wasn’t as simple as that…

This tutorial for mini foldover baskets will have you making up a batch in no time. Perfect for teacher or bridesmaid gifts, or use them to corral goodies around the house. The possibilities are endless.

In this Fabric Palette Friday, I dove into my scrap bin for a palette that makes me think of a gentle summer dusk, with the sky turning every shade of calming blues, pinks, and purples.

Hello, February Quilt Block Mania-ers! I hope you’re as excited as I am about this month’s Quilt Block Mania theme — connection. Let me introduce you to my Love Encircled block!

Here’s a quick and easy tutorial for incorporating a simple paper-pieced heart into a mini lined drawstring bag, perfect for carrying any bitty goodies you want. I’m planning to fill these with some chocolates, a note, and a gift card for the teachers as a Valentine’s thank you, but the possibilities for these sweeties are endless. The main part of the Maker’s Heart Mini Pouch finishes at just 5” x 6”, and you could easily put several together in one night of sewing fun.

It’s no secret that hearts are a classic motif in quilting and for good reason. At its core, quilting is an act of making that lets us produce a tangible, tactile expression of our love for ourselves or others. Of course, that sometimes takes the form of the most classic symbol of love — the heart. With Valentine’s Day around the corner, I thought it would be fun to put together some Heart of Hearts mockups that would be a joy to create any time of year. Enjoy some eye candy and a discount code on the Heart of Hearts pattern!
