If you’ve read my Moody Monday blog featuring our Disney•Pixar Cars Collection last June than you know how much I love the movies. Now you were probably wondering why it wasn’t followed by a How To Tuesday right? That’s simply because I had to make it! It’s now ready and the timing couldn’t be more perfect since we have to get these kids ready for back to school! So without further ado, here is a cute pencil case!
We have made many projects with the Rose Quartz & Serenity collection for the Spring Quilt Market not to mention the ties and handkerchiefs that look stunning (You have to look at the picture Fave Quilts took). So it is difficult to pick out just one project to feature. But I am opting for the great Butterfly quilt pattern as it’s a relatively easy Queen Size quilt to make.
Please remember that I DO NOT recommend you starting your quilting journey by making a Queen size quilt! Although I have heard many stories starting like this. The fact is that quilting is not necessary the easiest hobby to have. And starting on a big project might mean a very short lived dream of becoming a quilter. Quilting combines many disciplines: the cutting, the piecing, the sandwiching, the quilting and the binding. All very challenging! I tend to call them pitfalls. So ensure that you kind of master all of these before contemplating a Queen Size quilt.
You can download the free pattern on our website AND you will be happy to know that the pattern has been tested and all corrections have been made to ensure that you really enjoy making the quilt.
