My third new quilt pattern
this year is called Summer Breeze. Colorful pinwheels spin like whirligigs in
a warm breeze. Grab your favorite mini charm
pack and some coordinating fabrics to create this cheerful scene, all wrapped up
by a dancing ribbon.
Summer Breeze finishes at 26 1/2" square, making it the perfect size for a seasonal wall hanging or kitchen table topper. In my sample I used a mini charm pack of "Aria" by Kate Spain for Moda. I love the saturated colors that Kate uses in her collections.
The ribbon effect is
achieved by selecting two greens that are the same color tone, with one
being a few shades darker or deeper than the other.
I added
mismatched buttons to the centers of my pinwheels, giving each one a little spinning
anchor! In these closeup photos you can see the beautiful custom quilting by Nancy Jolene Quilting of Danube, Minnesota.
It's just perfect!
If you are interested
in purchasing Summer Breeze, please visit your local quilt shop or one of my
blog sponsors who are carrying the patterns. You can also purchase paper
or electronic patterns on my Etsy Shop. Quilt shop
owners: wholesale information is available here.
Remember, if you make any of my
patterns, please tag me on Instagram or Facebook. I love seeing other quilters' interpretations of my patterns!
Thanks so much for stopping by the blog today! Now go and get carried away quilting!
