I'm working on the center panel for a RR. Used the pattern block, Honey Bee.....old timey block but I used bright colors on a white background instead of 1930's prints and I like how it turned out.

It seems owl quilts are everywhere, especially for babies!!:)

Check out Phillips fiber art.

Okay, here is the problem. I was asked if I was putting anything in the local quilt show in April this year. Usually, I am one step ahead and already started on something unusual or different. I am at a loss this year. I have become so bogged down in work that I haven't had time to really think about what I want to make. So, what is the hottest, new, method or pattern out there right now? Or do you have a favorite that you never get tired of seeing?

I am thinking of rocking my quilt show with a large canvas sporting McKenna Ryan patterns (several that go together).
No sewing, just major fusing. Just for fun. |
I am seeing many, many and often too many variations on the New York Beauty. I am now bored with them. I also am seeing lots of curves. Great skill for the advanced quilter.
|
Modern quilt patterns seem to be the new thing. I think the quilting on a modern quilt is the big thing.

Trends come and go........if it is a quilt you are going to keep, I would do something You Love, why waste time on something you are not going to like 10 years down the road, not to mention money on fabric, etc. jmho, Jennifer

Among several quilt stores near me is one that specializes in modern quilting. Their website shows a number of the new styles that are now popular. The look is clean, bright, cheerful and often pretty easy to make. New quilts often have no borders and put bright, patterned fabrics on a plain white, grey or cream background.
