Happy Thursday! I hope you all are having a lovey day.
Time for this week’s Thankful Thursday! New year, new beautiful quilts to be discovered!! Today we are sharing a gorgeous quilt pattern from Missouri Star Quilt Co. – Broken Bars! A version of the Broken Bars Quilt was created by Cristina Tepsick from Pretty Little Quilts. The quilt design reminded her of rows of books, and from that inspiration, created a Jane Austen-inspired color scheme with our Magnolia by Alisse Courter collection. She followed Jenny’s tutorial pretty much to a “t”, but changed the sizes of the strips to give an authentic bookshelf feel. We love her version, and how she even added strips of horizontal pieces to reference a real book’s spine. The Broken Bars quilt is such a great one, and we adore how Cristina revamped it! What a fantastic tutorial reboot.
Thank you to Jenny and everyone at Missouri Star Quilt Co. for the awesome free pattern, and to Cristina for choosing our fabric for her revamp. If you’d like to check out the tutorial reboot, you can click here. They’re also giving away a bundle of our Magnolia collection, so be sure to enter. Have an amazing rest of the day!
Happy Thursday! And Happy October!! It definitely feels like fall today – crisp and chilly this morning! Definitely needed to bundle up in my blanket scarf… Brr!!
Time for this week’s Thankful Thursday! We are sharing some super exciting news with you all today!! Missouri Star Quilt Co. is a family-owned quilt shop located in Hamilton, Missouri with the sweetest story ever. Mom, dad, and their seven children moved from California to Missouri, but after the market crash and dip in the newspaper industry, things got a little tough. Two of the kids had an idea to help out their parents towards retirement. They bought a small building and started the Missouri Star Quilt Co.– selling a few quilting supplies and offering some machine quilting services to start.
They quickly found success – in part due to mom, Jenny, who became the quilting instructor and started a quilting YouTube channel(which is now the most subscribed and watched quilting channel!). They also have an online shop, with great deals every week! They have now expanded, but the love for family & fabric is continuous and strong.
This month, they are hosting one of the greatest fabric sweepstakes of the year – the Golden Star Sweepstakes! And we are so excited to be a part of it.
