The New Website - about a month!

I am busy today, editing and working on the new website.  Hopefully it will be up and running in about a month.

So, the mission of the new website, http://www.quiltersexpress.com/, is to provide new and exciting designs and patterns that have clear and detailed instructions, so that you can produce a well made quilt with confidence.  And in the coming months all sorts of tools, threads and stuff that you have to have will be added!

The first pattern in the 'Karma Collection' is 'Karma Simplicity' a elegant on-point design that uses only two fabrics.  The one pictured below I named 'Simply Sunshine' and is stunning in real life, the picture doesn't do it justice!  I am still finalizing the pattern, but as soon as I do, I will post it for you to download.  Once you have made 'Simplicity' you have the groundwork done for all the quilts in the Simplicity series, which consists of five quilt patterns, all based on the first pattern.

'Karma Simplicity Two' will be available on the website, and is a rail fence variation.  For those that are new to quilting, a rail fence pattern is strips of fabric sewn together, cut into squares, then arranged by twisting the blocks - hard to explain, but here is a picture to illustrate!



So, 'Simplicity Three' is in the planning stages, as are 'Simplicity Four' and 'Simplicity Five'.  Three is made using a paper piecing technique - I will post general directions for paper piecing in the next week or so.  Four is a 'Dresden Plate' pattern - I'll post a picture soon.  And Five will be the final pattern in the 'Simplicity' series and will be 'Celtic Quilting' - another new technique for you to learn!

So we have an interesting journey to set out on - I hope you will join me!
