Postcard Patterns – New Series @ Puppy Girl Designs!!

Hi there,

This year of challenges just drones on with COVID (am very fortunate to have survived it), the unemployment and the election. And then there are the cancellation of me lecturing and teaching at guilds and vending at the quilt shows – I really looking forward to vending at the quilt shows.  In my personal life, I’ve moved twice (!) in the past five months (lots of packing, unpacking, packing again…) have been working only part time at the local Town office, no teaching, no quilting events.  My home guilt guild isn’t meeting until after January 1st but my other guild has been holding guest lectures on Zoom (yeah!). I didn’t go on the annual Fall Retreat, where I always look forward to the people, great food and lots of laughs. I have found it to be very difficult to feel creative. Have you felt that way? Have you been making face masks for months but not much else?

Where I’m living now is very peaceful and pleasant. The Puppy Girls are comfortable and happy to be here and I’m back to doodling again. I wanted something new, something different and this time, something cute and quick. Some (fairly) instant gratification for a change and now I am ready to share with you.

Welcome to the Postcard Pattern series – where the front cover has photo of the finished project AND the full size pattern with directions on the back!! Just cut your background fabric, trace, get stitching and in a couple of hours, you’re done! Here are the first two –  Spiced Pumpkin and Leaves Falling !

PDF patterns (Downloadable) are available at my Etsy shop for $3.95.  **There are also a limited number of kits made with these fabrics available for $11.00 plus shipping!!  Kits include background/border fabrics and floss needed to complete the top.  Don’t these just call out to you! Get it now and you could be displaying the finished mini quilt by the weekend!  

But wait, there’s more! Every week for the next 4 weeks, I will be debuting a new design – there’s one for Thanksgiving, two for Christmas and one for the Holiday Season!  Stayed tuned in!!
