Fellow Quilters,

The past 2 months have been a whirlwind of activity for me.  September started with 2 back-to-back Alaskan cruises with the Watergirl Quilt Co team (sew much fun!),

The Watergirl crew and I with Jan of Changing Tides in Juneau AK

followed immediately with a stint in the Northcott booth at the Missouri Star Birthday Bash – always a good time!

Showing our Sock Hop spirit at Missouri Star Birthday Bash

Then I was called into service to help make some quilts for Northcott’s booth at Quilt Market, the Fall trade show in Houston TX (including this FIFA2026 one)

One of my FIFA 2026 quilts

, all while designing 5 new patterns, writing instructions for several others (my favorite is

PC312Cat-tails, followed closely by PC314 Shades of Autumn) and doing 5 workshops/lectures for local guilds.

In the midst of all that, my son asked me to make a quilt for his upcoming wedding – 4 weeks before the wedding!!!  Need I mention that he’s been engaged for 2 years?!?

What with all the wedding plans these past few weeks, when the call for the November Quilt Block Mania came out, I was in full wedding mode.  The theme this month is Market/shopping, so my block depicts – you guessed it – a bridal shop.  It’s mostly pieced, with a bit of fusible applique for the bride and the wedding bells.  In fact, Wedding Bells is the name of my block.  You can download the pattern here.

Fourteen other designers also rose to the challenge and designed blocks for this theme – you can find the links to their blocks below:

So what quilt did my son and his darling sweetheart choose?  My PC145 Salt & Pepper fat-quarter pattern in the lap-size (thank goodness!), to be used as a guest book at their wedding. 

Salt & Pepper quilt for the newlyweds

The guests were asked to sign the back of the quilt, so a light-colored backing was required. 

Guests signed the back of the quilt

While their choice of quilt was likely unintentional, it was so appropriate – the block in this quilt has 2 opposites that come together, like 2 people in a marriage.  The wedding was just a few days ago, so I’m still coming down from the buzz.

I have an extra copy of PC145 Salt & Pepper to give away.  This fat ¼ friendly pattern includes 4 sizes from runner to queen-size.  For a chance to win a copy, please leave a comment below offering up your best advice for my newlyweds.  What’s the best advice you’ve received?  Or what advice do you wish you’d received? All comments entered by November 12 will go into the draw.  Good luck!

Fellow Quilters,

What is your go-to snack?  Do you prefer sweet or salty nibbles?  I’m a sweets lover – I’ll take chocolate over potato chips any day!  And not just any chocolate – no!  I want the good stuff, a.k.a. the expensive brands that have their own shops, where the chocolates are sold individually, and one is never enough.

I’m also a sucker (no pun intended) for candy, especially if it’s chewy.  My colleague Susanne has a weakness for the tiny Jelly Belly jellybeans, except the cantaloupe and pear flavors, so my job is to search through each bag to remove them (and eat them of course!) before she mistakenly pops one into her mouth.

Sweets is this month’s theme for the Quilt Block Mania blog tour, so I googled ‘sweets” for inspiration and found an old favorite – salt water taffy!   These chewy pastel-colored treats are not in fact made from salt water.  Through the pulling process, which makes the candy lighter and chewier, air is added by stretching out the mixture, folding it over, and stretching it again.  The fruit-flavored candy is then cut into bite-size pieces and wrapped in waxed paper to keep it soft.  Here is my Salt Water Taffy block

You can find the pattern here If you want to try your hand at making a batch of salt water taffy, here is a recipe that I saw online.

In Canada at this time of year, you can find Halloween kisses, a form of molasses taffy candy, in shops alongside the usual trick or treat offerings.  When I was young, my siblings did not like them so I would barter small quantities of my other Halloween treats for larger quantities of their Halloween kisses – yum!  Canadians apparently either love them or hate them.  Most kids do NOT like them, however the stores sell out every Fall despite increased quantities being produced.  Maybe kids would like them if they tried making them a.k.a participated in a good old-fashioned taffy pull.  Here is a recipe for homemade Halloween kisses.

Thirteen other pattern designers also made sweet blocks for this month – you can find the links to their free blocks below.

Fellow Quilters,

Welcome to August 😊  July was a bit of a blur for me, with golf games, invites to friends’ cottages (my homemade cookies and pies help ensure return visits), gardening and some al fresco dining to take advantage of warm summer evenings.

Magenta is my neutral!

Lots of work-related projects as well, including participating in the Aug/Sept/Oct/Nov double issue of Fons & Porter’s Quick + Easy Quilts with my pretty Cobblestones throw quilt made with Heather Bailey’s gorgeous Wild Abandon (find the issue here).  I’m also in the current (Fall 2024) issue of McCall’s Quilting with my super-fun Twist & Turn lap quilt (find the issue here).

Twist and Treat with Whiskers & Wine

This “tipsy” 9-patch is made with Bonnie Lemaire’s Whiskers & Wine collection and features the adorable border print.  Of course, I use my E-Z Miter/Lone Star tool for perfect mitered borders!

I’ve also been busy writing several new patterns for hot-off-the-press fabric collections:

PC298 Panel Perfection uses one or 2 abstract art panels, fracturing and framing them for a quilt in one of 5 sizes

PC308 Window Panes

is a quick and easy pattern to showcase some of those large-scale prints.  Great for layer cakes

PC312 Cat-tails is for cat lovers everywhere.  This much-requested pattern now includes 5 sizes.

PC133P Festive Frostings is the silver-toned version of my original Festive Frostings and includes 4 sizes

PC311 Christmas Geese uses placemats from Northcott’s Yuletide Traditions, adding interest with flying geese

Watching the Time for August Quilt Block Mania

I also found time to design a block for the August edition of Quilt Block Mania.  Speaking of time, my Watching the Time block fits this month’s theme of accessories.

You can download the free-for-now pattern here.  Call me old school but I am almost never without a wristwatch.  I have had a variety of watches over the years.  I went through a 3-year period where I wore a pendant watch.

A pendant watch similar to mine

A clock handbag by designer Marilyn Brooks

Then I had a handbag shaped like an old clock face – it had a working clock as the face and was quite a conversation piece!

Currently I have 3 watches that I alternate wearing to suit my attire.  What about you?  Do you wear a watch?  What is your go-to accessory?  Maybe one of the accessories shown in the other participating bloggers’ blocks?  Here are links to them:

I love color.  No doubt about it.  Can’t get enough of it.  From my fabric stash (of course!) to my wardrobe, shoes, even my cars.  No neutral palette for me!  Turquoise is my go-to blender – I can successfully pair just about any color with turquoise.  It is my happy place, and for good reason.  Who wouldn’t love to find themselves on a white sand beach lapped by warm turquoise water? Ahhhh, tropical bliss!  Picture any beach and, alongside the turquoise water, you’re sure to find a rainbow of color on the beach.  Beach towels and bathing suits of every hue line the sandy shoreline.  The flora and fauna also add bright splashes of color.

One of my favorite pastimes in these tropical beach locales is exploring the colorful world below the surface of the water.  This is easily done with a mask and snorkel and often provides me with hours of entertainment as I marvel at the life in these underwater gardens.

Maui snorkeling tour

The expansive variety of brightly colored fish is surpassed by the even more expansive variety of colorful coral in a healthy reef.  It is truly an inspiring sight.  If given the opportunity, I will don a scuba tank and explore these underwater parks up close – they are teeming with life.  It is exhilarating to swim alongside sea turtles or find yourself surrounded by a school of hundreds of fish.
Last month I mentioned a fun colorful monthly online event in which I’m participating.  Jen of Patterns by Jen (PBJ for short) is hosting her annual Monthly Color Challenge.  The theme this year is tropical fish, and each month Jen picks a fish and uses that fish’s color to make that month’s block.  The pattern for the block is free for the entire month, after which it is $1.  You can sign up here to automatically receive an email each month with a link to the free pattern.  Jen also does a free how-to video showing how to make the block each month.  Here is a link to the Monthly Color Challenge main page listing each month’s color and fish.
I am helping Jen out by blogging about the August block.  This month’s color is purple (which pairs beautifully with turquoise and is also one of my favorite colors), and the fish is a purple dottyback.

A purple dottyback

Yowza!  I love the color of these fish!!

I pulled out the light and dark purple fabrics from my stack of FIGO Stash fabrics (not quite as bright as a dotty) and quickly whipped up a pair of the August block from Jen’s blog post (the blocks are quite easy to do 😊).  If you read my blog last month, you saw the luscious range of colors in Stash that I’m using for my blocks.

My stash of Stash by FIGO

I am making one light/dark block following Jen’s pattern and also one “color”/background block per her instructions.  My background is FIGO’s Serenity gray dot on white – a great blender for my Stash palette.
So far, I’ve completed the blocks for January through August – just 4 more months to go.

January – green tiger barb

February – discus

March – cherry barb

April – electric blue hap

May – electric yellow lab

June – harlequin rasboras

July – silver dollar

Jen will be providing a set of finishing instructions at year end to turn your monthly blocks into a nice-sized lap quilt using the light/dark block from each month.  Because I have 2 blocks each month, my year-end quilt is going to be larger – queen-size in fact.  I hope you’ll follow along with me each month as I post photos of the current month’s blocks.
I’ve also been participating in a couple of magazine issues.  My Cobblestones quilt, featured in the joint Aug/Sept and Oct/Nov issue of Fons & Porter’s Quick + Easy Quilts, showcases the dee-lish and oh-so-colorful Wild Abandon by Heather Bailey for FIGO.

Cobblestones made with Wild Abandon

In this fat ¼ friendly throw-size quilt, I use magenta as my “neutral” – who knew that it could be a neutral?!?

Magenta is my neutral!

You can find a digital copy of the issue here.
I am also featured in the Fall 2024 issue of McCall’s Quilting with my Twist and Treat lap-size quilt made with Bonnie Lemaire’s Whiskers & Wine collection.

Twist and Treat with Whiskers & Wine

The tipsy cats in this adorable collection are a perfect fit for this quilt.

The lengthwise border stripe makes a purr-fect border

Quick + Easy Quilts is hitting newsstands today or you can get a digital copy here.

Stay tuned also for 8 new patterns coming to my Patti’s Patchwork website next week.  There just might be a special discount for my newsletter subscribers (the newsletter sign-up link is at the bottom of this page).
Cheers,
Patti

Fellow Quilters,

Today I’m coming to you from the Greek island of Crete, where Hubby and I are alternately trekking and dipping our toes in the Aegean Sea.

We are most certainly enjoying the delicious cuisine of this arid  Mediterranean country, perhaps some of the local beverages, and definitely the spectacular landscape.

The town of Fiera on the volcanic island of Santorini

This time last year we were also in the Mediterranean, venturing into north Africa for a brief stop in the Arab country of Tunisia.  So much of this area of the world is hot and dry – a desert.

Have you ever taken a ride on a camel?

In fact, the port in Tunis had some camels dressed to the nines in bright sparkling covers, and passersby were enticed to go for a short ride on these peculiar animals.

When this month’s theme for Quilt Block Mania was announced – desert – I thought of those creatures, a classic symbol of desert life.  I was not brave enough to go for a test drive on one of them, but I watched as a family with young kids took a trip around the port from the lofty height of the camels’ backs.  The kids were so very excited!

What brings to mind a symbol of desert?  Sand, most likely, stretching on as far as the eye can see.  And what better to traverse these vast tracts than a trusty camel?  Here’s my

Toes in the Sand block for this month.

My easy Toes in the Sand block for this month’s Quilt Block Mania – Desert theme

You can download the simple pattern here.

Just for fun, I colored up several blocks in non-traditional hues – how fun!  They remind me of the colorful covers worn by the Tunis camels.

A brightly-colored Toes in the Sand 48″ x 60″ quilt – I can’t get “Midnight at the Oasis” out of my head!

Here are some fun facts about camels:

Camels have either one hump (Dromedary) or two humps (Bactrian).

Camels are born without humps.

Camels store water in their blood (not their humps – they store fat in them) and can survive for weeks without water.

They are the only land mammals capable of drinking salt water without any ill effects.

Camels have three sets of eyelids and two rows of eyelashes to keep sand out of their eyes.

A pack of camels is called a caravan.

Camels live on average 40-50 years.

Camels can maintain a speed of 25mph for over an hour.

Camels sleep standing up.

Camels have large, flat feet to help them walk on sand. The soles of their feet have a large surface area to stop them from sinking into the sand.  Camels have two toes on each foot. A hoof that looks like a toenail grows at the front of each toe. Cows, horses, and many other animals walk on their hoofs but a camel walks on a broad pad that connects its two long toes. This cushion like pad spreads when the camel places its foot on the ground. The pad supports the animal on loose sand in much the same way that a snowshoe helps a person walk on snow.

Fellow Quilters,

Spring is in full swing – I saw my first 2 robins yesterday 😊 – and beach days are just around the corner.  Hubby and I live on a ski hill (not beachy at all!) but the world’s longest fresh-water beach is a mere 15 minutes away.  On Georgian Bay, Wasaga Beach is almost 9 miles (14km) long, with a lovely gentle shoreline perfect for families with young children.  This iconic beach welcomes over one million visitors annually.  Perhaps you’ve been one of them!  Do you have a favorite beach?  I’ve listed my top picks below.

“Beach” is the theme for April’s Quilt Block Mania, and I had fun designing a block that is perfect for a beach tote, beachy placemats if you live in a beach community, or perhaps a fun wall-hanging.

My Scooping Sand block for the April Quilt Block Mania blog tour

Here is my Scooping Sand block.  What’s a beach day without a pail and shovel to build a sandcastle?!?  You can download the free pattern here.

Twenty other designers participated in QBM this month and there are some terrific blocks.  I was surprised how many used a rainbow color palette.  You can find links to their free blocks here:

Eyes on your Fries

Hubby and I have travelled to some pretty awesome areas of the world and experienced some spectacular beaches.  Some of my faves are:

Siesta Key in Sarasota FL USA – the white sand is so fine and powdery.

Ninety Mile beach in Ahipara NZ, on the western shore of the top of the north island.  It is actually a highway but only when the tide is out.

Byron Bay on Australia’s Gold Coast.  Watch the strong surf and the undertow!

Waikiki Beach in Honolulu HI USA – famous!  Hawaii has so many lovely beaches, including Lahaina.

Langkawi Beach in Malaysia – beautiful, and the entry into the water is gentle (no shelf)

Philipsburg St. Maarten – lovely white sand.  Truth be told, most of the Caribbean islands have great beaches.

Beaches of the South Pacific, including Tahiti, Bora Bora and Fiji

Mexican beaches including Cozumel and Acapulco

One of the best beach days ever in the Conflict Islands

What about you?  Please post a comment below telling me about your favorite beach – I might need to add it to my bucket list.

Speaking of comments, time is running out to enter the giveaway for a scrumptious pack of 10” squares of Margo by FIGO Fabrics.  Head on over to my March 26^th blog post to participate – the deadline is April 6^th.

Speaking of time running out, there are just a handful of spaces left in Watergirl Quilt Co’s Alaskan Quilting cruise September 8^th -15^th.  Top-of-the-line Bernina sewing machines are provided for the classes – choose 4 of the 12 fun tip-filled classes taught by yours truly, host extraordinaire Michelle and the entertaining Paul Leger.  Class selection starts shortly, so reserve your spot now for the best selection on your preferred picks.

Fellow Quilters,

Does life have you going in circles some days?

Today I’m circling back to an email I received last summer from the editors at Quiltmaker magazine requesting designs for the March/April + May/June supersized issue.  In it, they put out a call for quilt designs that use large-scale fabrics.  Not one to shy away from such a tempting challenge, I perused the upcoming collections of Northcott, Banyan Batiks and FIGO Fabrics in search of a collection containing a variety of large-scale prints.  I zeroed in on two FIGO collections, including a bright colorful FIGO collection called Margo by Sydney-based botanical illustrator Adrianna Picker. 

The Margo collection by Adrianna Picker

The detail in this lifelike collection of fruits and florals is exquisite and the color palette is fresh and inviting.  The addition of a bold 2-color stripe sealed the deal (I cannot resist a good stripe😊).  When I discovered that the collection came in tile packs of (42) 10” squares, I jumped in with both feet (I work best with a narrow set of parameters).

Once the fabric collection was chosen, I started playing with design ideas.  I don’t normally combine lots of large-scale prints in my quilts – I like to offset their busy-ness with some smaller-scale or tonal solid-ish fabrics.  Working with the pack of 10” squares necessitated the inclusion of all 14 designs however, so no opportunity to save some prints for another project.  The color palette is also delightfully busy – everything but red is used.  How could I separate the prints and bring some order to the chaos of busy-ness while making best use of the 10” squares?

Around (a-“round”  – haha) the same time, I was also working on the block-of-the-month design for my local guild (I am the BOM coordinator).  This year’s theme is blocks with curves.  One of the blocks is a circle in a circle.  Hmmm… could I apply this concept to my pack of 10” squares?  How could I use every bit of each square, while still using circles?

After playing with the fabrics in my Electric Quilt EQ8 design program for a bit, I arrived at my chosen design. 

My EQ8 digital image of my proposed design

Half the blocks have neutral a.k.a. solid-ish rings to separate the prints, while others combine busy and not-so-busy prints.  The light-colored neutral sashing further gives another layer of order, while the cornerstones add a pop of fun.  One of the bold stripe fabrics adds an extra sizzle as binding.  Happily, my design, entitled Cirque de Fleurel, was accepted.  I started cutting and sewing.

My finished Cirque de Fleurel quilt

So, about the circle blocks.  They’re not that hard 😊!  Really!! Think of it this way – each circle block has just one seam, and each ring block has only 2 seams.  Yup – just 1 or 2 seams per block.  Easy!  It’s not fast sewing – you want to take your time – but, with only 1-2 seams, each block takes only 5-10 minutes.  The first one will take double that, but they get much faster.  Trust me 😊.  Here are my best tips for you:

Tip #1 – mark each circle, ring and block background in 8’s by folding in ¼’s and creasing (or snipping 1/8” into the seam), then folding again to mark the 1/8’s.  Four of the crease/snips will be on the straight of grain and 4 will be on the 45° bias.

Tip #2 – when pinning pieces together, check that the straight-of-grain creases/snips on one piece are matched with the straight-of-grain creases/snips of the other piece.  You really don’t want to sew straight-of-grain parts to bias parts – trust me!

Tip #3 – sew with the circle on the bottom and the block frame (or ring) on the top.  Keep those raw edges aligned with each other and also keep them aligned with the edge of your ¼” foot.

Tip #4 – if your machine has a “needle down” function, I encourage you to use it.  Stop to re-adjust the 2 layers as often as necessary.

Tip #5 – If you’re pressing the seam toward the background (frame) piece, you’ll want to make small snips in the seam allowance of the background piece on the curved seam.  Same goes if you’re pressing the inner ring seam toward the ring.  Your block will lay flatter.

Tip #6 – press the ring blocks only once the background piece has been added.  If you press them after adding the ring but before the background has been added, you may distort the ring ☹.

I cut my pieces out with scissors – my Karen Kay Buckley micro-serrated purple handle ones are the bomb! 

I used my Karen Kay Buckley scissors but an Olfa circle cutter is a great option

Please cut exactly on the traced line.  I traced the circle and ring onto template plastic and traced along the edge of the plastic onto the back of my fabric.  If you have an Olfa rotary circle cutter, this would be an excellent opportunity to put it through its paces.  I quilted my quilt with an allover design and a lovely variegated thread, using a rayon print from the Margo collection as my backing fabric – so soft and dreamy!

Cirque de Fleurel is featured on page 41 of the jam-packed March/April + May/June double issue of Quiltmaker.  This fab issue hits newsstands today and includes 12 delicious projects with detailed instructions for each.  I love Toby Lischko’s Lava Lamps and Ramona’s Scrappy Braid.  There’s also a Q & A on African fabrics with expert Lisa Shepard Stewart, and Brenna Riley Gates’ Top Ten Tips for Fussy-cutting – ideal for large-scale prints!  You can download a copy of the issue here for instant gratification.

To entice you to pick up your own copy of the magazine and give Cirque de Fleurel a whirl, FIGO Fabrics has given me a tile pack of Margo 10” squares to make your own quilt. 

A 42-piece pack of Margo 10″ squares is up for grabs

Thanks, FIGO!  For your chance to win this fab FIGO prize, please leave a comment below by April 6 telling me about your favorite curvy block that you’ve made or want to make.  Do you love or hate blocks with circles/curves?  Successes, struggles?  I want to hear it.  Please share your thoughts.  I can’t wait to read them.

Thanks for reading 😊

Cheers,

Patti
