One of three ...

I have been waiting until after I post about the last 3 months worth of classes before I show you my new designs ... but I have decided that if I wait any longer I would be able to refer to these projects as new!!!!!

The first of these projects is Alphabet Soup!

 
This is a single bed sized quilt that I put together using raw edge applique and my method of trapunto ... I think I will plan some classes around trapunto for next year ....

 
This quilt came together really quickly taking only a few weeks to complete. I just love the extra dimension from the trapunto, it looks terrific on a bed!

This is Ben's quilt, so I made it with my boy in mind ... mind you he hasn't slept under it yet! I would love to have the time to make it up in girlie colours!

If you happen to be in Canberra then you can take a peek at it in the 'flesh' at Addicted to Fabric. I'll be teaching again at A2F in September this year and we will be working on In Spring (see below) ... give the girls a ring if you'd like to come along.

As we all know there can't be a new release without a giveaway and because I have three new projects out at the moment I am going to do a combined giveaway ... I'll follow up this post with two more posts, over the next couple of days, each showing one of the two remaining projects so here's how the giveaway will work .....

Leave a comment on this post or one of the next two posts - before the 1st of July & one random commenter from each post will receive a copy of;

Wish you were here or

In Spring - which ever takes your fancy.

 
If you leave a comment on all three of these posts before the 1st of July one commenter will have the chance to win a kit to make up either Wish you were here or In Spring - which ever takes your fancy.

  
If you purchased a copy of either of the two new projects from one of my retailers or from myself before the 1st of July then email me telling me where & when you bought the pattern and you will have a chance to win a kit to make up either Wish you were here or In Spring - which ever takes your fancy. Please remember you will need proof of purchase.

Joseph's Coat ...

 
Unfortunately, all of the Melbourne 'Joseph's Coaters' are super slack ... sorry guys... and are all a ways away from being able to complete the next step in their progress of the quilt but fear not I have a new plan so watchthis space and in the next few weeks I should be able to show you how to put togetherer the next 3 rows.

 
These pictures are from last weeks Joseph's Coat class at Patchwork House ... more photos later ... but don't you just love this block? All of the petals in the picture above belong to Brianna who is going to be starting work at Don't Look Now this coming week .... yay!!!!!!

******************************************************************

Good luck with the giveaway guys ... and have a terrific weekend!

Kellie

PS. I have decided to begin a new page, of sorts, to post photos from my classes ... so hopefully this will make it a little easier to maintain because I am having a lot of trouble keeping up at the moment. I guess we'll see if this solves my problem ... but more on this later.

Love, love, love your designs. Thanks so much for sharing!

[McMama]

I am in awe of your work. Just beautiful!

[Karen]

The Alphabet Soup is gorgeous. I would love to try the "wish you were here" as a wall hanging
Thanks for an exciting giveaway

[Julie-Anne]

Hi Kellie, I love Alphabet Soup what a great quilt for a littlie learning their letters. I also love In Spring which I think would be much more achievable for me! Keep up the great work.

[Tracy]

I love this. I love all of your things and would love to win.

[Kristin Jenny]

I am a big fan of alphabets or letters and decorate with them often. I am thinking a very typographic white gray and black would be stunning! Although the aqua blue you used for the background is super.

[Jacqueline Warrick]

This one is my favourite yet Kellie, thanks for the giveaway, enjoy the rest of the week

[Trish B]

Kelli I just love your designs. They are all so fun and happy! your website brightens my day when I stop by. I would love to win one of your patterns.

[Michelle@Ballarat]

Lovely colours on this one Kellie. Beautiful!

[nanann]

okay, now if it were possible, I totally would have thought you plucked this idea right out of my brain! I was totally going to make something like this letter quilt for a friend's new baby, but then decided I didn't have time. I had only told my mom though, and I know she doesn't know you! ;)

SO, to say I like it would be an understatement!

[Minna Levenkron]

I am an ardent admirer of quilts. Although a newbie quilter myself I had wanted to start learning about ten years ago when a client of mine (a man!) gave me a quilt as a thank you gift. It hangs in my office across from where I sit and I get to look at it everyday. I now look at quilts with a different eye, figuring out how they were made, what would they look like in different colors, etc., but nobody and no quilt takes my breath away like yours. If I could make quilts like these I think I would be the happiest person alive. I stare at them in disbelief that an actual human being designed and made them. With many quilts I look at them and know that I could make them. It might take me a long time but I now have the skill to do it but yours... I wish I could believe I could someday but I am doubtful. If I could sit on your shoulder for six months everyday and watch you meticulously cut and sew maybe... In any case I have already bought one of your patterns. Owning it makes me feel hopeful. I'd love to win one but if not there is no question I will continue to buy more. The trucks surprisingly I must say is my favorite. Your son has no idea what a lucky boy he is. So in the meantime, I will stare at my computer and print copies of the quilts to look at and slowly, very slowly so I don't get discouraged I will try to learn how to applique. There are no classes I know of in Rochester, New York but I am going to investigate further. You are an amazing artist and know that you make me smile broadly and laugh each time I see a picture of one of your quilts. Thank you for sharing them will all of us.

[Kim]

Your patterns are the cutest ever! I will be looking for the patterns in Texas. Thanks for allowing us to share in your creative talent.

[sara]

Can I just say that YOU are AMAZING!?!!

[Marta Hernández]

I would like to know how can I get the pattern for Rush Hour. I'd be great for my little boy. I live in Spain.

So there will be more pressure on retailers to get selective deals with leading brands – or to develop their own-label versions of everything
