Quilt Patterns







Here are a couple basic patterns for my quilts. I use this basic design to start with. Most of the square blocks are 8”x8” and are arranged in different color patterns for the quilt top. The center picture can be up to an 11”x17” picture. I have added a couple of pictures to one of the patterns to give you an idea of what it starts to look like. Let’s get started!!!

1- Choose the size of quilt you would like
2- Decide which colors you would like to have. Note: For the Sitting/Reading Quilts, we have found that one main color and up to 3 accent colors work best. For the Lap Quilts, one main color and up to 2 accent colors work best.
3- Decide which pictures/hand written notes etc. you would like on your Quilt. Note: For the Sitting/Reading Quilts we like to use up to 16 pictures in the blocks, and up to 11”x17” picture in the center. For the Lap Quilts, we like to use up to 7 pictures in the blocks, and up to 11”x13” picture in the center.
4- Get in contact with us. You can email me your pictures and color choices and we will contact you with a draft of the quilt top for your approval before assembly.
