Quilters Meet and Greet


The 2018 Online Quilters Meet and Greet starts today and runs though September 30th with a grand prize being given away on October 1st.


Each blog you visit gives you an entry to the Grand Prize Giveaway, don't miss one. Visit the meet and greet HERE.

Welcome to Patterns By Jen! I design quilt patterns for beginning quilters to advanced. My first pattern was Pinwheel Pizzazz.




This will always be a favorite, because it's the first.

One of my best sellers is The Star Light Star Bright Sampler.




This one comes with multiple options; a quilt, a couple of wall hangings, a table runner or a miniature. I will be sharing the 30 x 30 version of this pattern made up in batiks later this month.

My best selling pattern is Softly Circled.




It's made using the Corner Beam ruler from Deb Tucker's Studio 180 Design, which is carried in my Etsy shop. The pattern includes templates, but the ruler is super easy to learn.




I'm excited to introduce you to The Border Quilt Quilt Along that starts September 12! It is featuring the Enchanted Forest flannel line from Northcott, but you can use any fabrics of your choice. You can grab a printed pattern HERE or a digital pattern HERE.  For all of the information about the quilt along read this POST.




I love to share my quilts with fellow quilters through my trunk show and I'm available for teaching. HERE is the teaching/trunk show page.


I love passing on tips and tricks and sharing a love of quilting with new quilters. I appreciate questions and am happy to take the time to help with quilting issues. I hope you will follow the blog, or follow me on Instagram and Facebook. Thank you for stopping by!

Happy Stitching!
Jen

    Nice to meet you in the M&G hop. I like Softly Circled -- but the star sampler caught my eye. The border QAL is intriguing . . .

    The border quilt along, such soft colours that tone together so well, and lovely settings for your photos. A gate, a wooden fence, and the snow, that is my favourite, as down here where we live, it seldom falls nearby.

    I immediately fell in love with your Softly Circled and I'm not usually a fan of quilts with a dark background. It's amazing how a pattern and fabric can marry to change one's interest. Thanks for a beautiful introduction to your quilts.
