I Love Precut Quilts! Blog Hop & Giveaway
February 1st, 2017 by Camelot Fabrics
Hi everyone! We’re starting off February with a blog hop organized by Tricia Maloney to celebrate her newest book I Love Precut Quilts! published by C & T Publishing. And it’s not just a blog hop, but there is a giveaway of Tricia’s book too! More about that in a bit…
We love to thumb through new quilting books and love the easy to follow instructions in Tricia’s book – perfect for beginner quilters. More seasoned quilters too will find some fun projects to stitch up in a moment’s notice.
Two of our favourite patterns in the book are: Paper Lanterns (show left below, would be fun in Camelot Fresh Solids and Mixology), and the Serenity Table Set (shown right, we envision this place setting in Do What You Love).
Tricia is no stranger to Camelot Fabrics. She has designed and created beautiful quilts for us to showcase our collections at Quilt Market. Pictured below are the quilts she made for our You Are Dino-Mite collection (left, arriving in stores June 2017) and Meadow collection (right, in stores this month!). Not coincidentally, many of the quilts Tricia has created for us are well suited to precuts :).

I think my favorite project is table runners. I do love to make quilts, but runners are so much faster. Sometimes you just need that instant gratification.

I have signed up for the newsletter. One thing that I like to do with precuts is make a D9P table runner from a charm pack. Quick and easy, and looks great every time!

My favourite projects using precuts are QUILTS. Whether it be fat quarter bundles, layer cakes, charm squares or jelly rolls….they are all usually used to make quilts. I make most of my quilts lap size 65 x 80. Everyone in my family are tall….so I prefer long quilts.

I make quilts, runners, wall hangings and placemats with precuts but my favourite would have to be table runners/ toppers. I seem to have a great number of them.

I love jelly rolls and I am usually a quilter so it’s mostly charity quilts for me. I do keep some and family and friends get plenty. Right now I am in charge of a pillowcase drive for our Children’s hospital. We are up to 250, aiming for 300. I have signed up.

Really great Chris. Hope the 300 pillowcases (and more) are reached.
