Stop The Presses!

To commemorate the release of my newest fabric collection, Just My Type, I have designed this easy-to-sew geometric quilt that uses every print in the collection. And best of all... it's FREE!

You can download this quilt pattern from:

• You Can Make This
• Craftsy
• Etsy (although Etsy wouldn't let me list it for less that $0.20 so you're better off getting it from one of the other two places).

This quilt was designed to use the Just My Type pre-cut bundles...

Charm Packs:

and Fat Quarter Bundles:

Plus some extra yardage for sashing, backing and binding. All the fabric requirements are clearly listed in the pattern listing, so you can know in advance how much you will need to buy for this quilt.

If you are looking for Just My Type fabric, I know it just started shipping last week, so it might not be readily available everywhere, but a quick Google search reveals it is in stock at Hawthorne Threads, Fat Quarter Shop, FabricWorm, and all over Etsy. (Retailers: if you have Just My Type in stock, please leave your link in the comments and I will add you to the list).

Here are a couple more pics of the quilt to whet your appetite.

Happy sewing!!

Introducing: Just My Type
Spring 2013 Fabric Collection

This is going to be literally the quickest new fabric reveal I have ever done. I am leaving for Portland to attend the International Quilt Market at the crack of dawn tomorrow and I haven't even packed yet, so as soon as I hit publish on this baby I am running home to do just that.

A little about Just My Type: It is a vintage type-inspired collection designed with a retro color palette and printed with a faux linen texture, for the “look” of linen but the “feel” of quilting cotton.

The collection boasts 25 prints produced on premium quality quilting weight cotton.

This collection is so new that it's not even up on the Michael Miller website yet, but I thought I should let you guys know what I was showcasing this week, in case any of you are going to attend the show. Here is a breakdown of all the prints (I promise to expand on this more when I get back!)

How about some inspiration images, eh? We didn't get a chance to sew up too much because we've only had the fabric here for about 7 days. But we did manage to make a few cute dresses from our Spring 2013 pattern collection. Below, from left to right are: Grace, Bailey, Riley and Quinn.

Of course, a few pillows for the booth...

And some other booth décor items. :)

And another little surprise before I go... JUST MY TYPE PRECUTS! Yeah, baby!
(these are just prototypes but they should look a lot like this when they're done)

Would love to hear what you think of my new collection. At this time tomorrow I should hopefully be in Portland getting ready to start setting up my booth, so it would be nice to have some comments to read while I'm away. :)
