Advent Calendar This pattern is based on an old family favorite advent calendar my daughters
just adored. I have also used this wall-hanging as an excuse to collect special
ornaments. It has a simple textured tree, adorned with rick-rack and bright
red buttons. Twenty-four pockets hold one small ornament for each day of the
advent season. Fast and simple to make, this is sure to delight the small
person in your home. Machine Appliqué. Pattern, 30" x 42", $5.00.

Albuquerque The city of Albuquerque lies in the heart of enchanting New Mexico. Residents
are enriched by the combined Hispanic, Indian, and Anglo cultures. The pattern
is a collage of the things that I love most about my home town: fall, my
favorite season, chile ristras, crumbling adobe walls, pottery and best
of all - the largest hot air balloon festival in the world!
For hand or machine appliqué. Pattern, 36" x 44", $5.00.

Anasazi Star Perfect for an introduction to circular star design, this pattern is
deceptively easy because the points on one side of the wedge do not match the
points on the opposing side. Fast and easy, it can be completed in little
time. For template piecing.
Pattern, 23" x 23", $5.00.

Sampler Jacket It's fun and easy! It's versatile! This jacket can be either creatively
conservative or extravagantly embellished. My purpose in creating this design
was to provide a bomber-style jacket that can be used as the base for a wide
variety of fun techniques. It features push-up cuffless sleeves, v-yoke, tab
buttonholes, and pockets set into the front seams for easy
application. Directions are included for the patchwork shown here and tips
for other embellishment techniques. Pattern includes sizes S, M, L and XL, $8.00.

New Century Star Sampler It's a sampler of circular stars encircled by unique border! This quilt grew
from a block of the month class. The overall design is sure to make a
delightful bed quilt or just make up individual blocks. This pattern is
designed for template piecing techniques.
Pattern, 80" x 80", 7.50.

Triangle Tessellation With this unique pattern, you can create many different designs using two
different sizes of blocks, a 3" block and a 6" block. Two color design sheets
are included to help you create your own design. Additionally, the color
instructions for the quilt shown here are also included.
Pattern, 26" x 27", $5.00.

Scrap Wrap The actual construction of this jacket can be completed in just three short
hours! - Yes, really! However, you can personalize your jacket, creating your
own designs through the fabric you stitch for your unique wearable
project. Create your own "fun fabric" by piecing together squares, rectangles,
Ohio Star blocks, flying geese, and fantasy figures. This drop-waist-length
jacket has back pleats so it will fit you beautifully. It is moderately fitted
with a two-piece front bodice so is curves where you do.
Pattern includes sizes S, M, L, XL, $8.00. |
Homecoming It's everyone's house! This delightful sampler speaks of homes from
throughout the U.S. and was actually inspired by my quilting travels in our
wonderful country. The 12 blocks are designed for either hand or machine
applique. It is a favorite among quilters everywhere. Pattern, 60" x 75", $10.00.

Apache Canyon Apache Canyon is located in the heart of enchanting New Mexico. The adobe home
with its turquoise door, wooden ladder, vigas, and prickly pear cactus are
common in this area. Designed for hand or machine appliqué. Pattern, 22" x 24", $5.00.
|
Milagro Jacket This classic-cut jacket is sure to flatter everyone. Its long enough to
cover those parts we would prefer covered, and simplified in that there are no
front closures, only the form-fitting band. It also features a fabric yoke
insert bordered with prairie points from which you can stitch your favorite
charms, or milagros, as we call them in New Mexico. The sleeves show a peek-a-boo
gusset with just a hint of the yoke fabric showing through, giving additional
movement in the sleeve. Pattern includes sizes S, M, L, XL, $8.00.

Spiral Magic Its stained glass with a twist! This is one of my familiar circular star
designs, only done up using machine stitched stained glass techniques. The
pattern includes directions for making your own bias, so you can create
lead lines in any fabric you choose.
Pattern, 36" x 36", $5.00.
