KT August Special

 It's a world of sunflowers here in Kansas. Fields of sunflowers, gardens of sunflowers, even volunteer sunflowers along the country roads. I love this time of year!

The only thing better than a slow drive to admire the sunflowers is to have one in my all summer long home. Two of my favorites? Sunny Days and Bee-you-ti-full runners.

Sunny Days - fusible applique w/button embellishment

 

Sunny Days features easy fusible web sunflower petals and center with a circle of golden buttons. Easy traditional piecing for the leaves and background. 
 

Bee-you-ti-full - traditional piecing with fusible applique

Bee-you-ti-full was named after the way my grandaughter pronounced & spelled beautiful when she was younger. I'm sure she loves me sharing that since she's in college :). I love the little fusible bees buzzing around the pieced sunflowers. Such a cute accent for your summer table.

 Each have their own personality but are equally fun & easy to make. Try one or both of our odes to sunflowers for only $30 plus free shipping (retail $39.95+$5ship). That's a savings of over 30%!

Find our Sunflower runners at ktquilts.com under KT Specials.

Moda Blockheads 6

(Kansas) Crossroads

I'm delighted to be part of BH6! For Week #2, I'm sharing my Crossroads block (it really should be Kansas Crossroads, right?). 

I chose to make two options in upcoming KT fabric collections - Wheatland (August 2025) and Bluebird's Nest (October 2025). 

Crossroads

 Both versions feature light backgrounds, but what if.......? I love how the lighter blue pops off the dark background, don't you? There are so many ways to color this block. What will you choose?

 When I have time (maybe someday?) I'd love to make a lap quilt out of these blocks!

TIPS 

1. I use Terial Magic diluted with water - 2 parts water:1 part Terial Magic. Prepping your fabric with starch or sizing BEFORE cutting helps stabilize your fabric for more accurate piecing.

2. The rail fence blocks are perfect for testing 1/4" seams. Sew all three strips together; press seams open, the unit should measure 3 1/2" square. 

3. For the center quarter square, cut the 5 1/2" square into fourths diagonally to create 4 triangles. This ensures the outer edges are not on the bias for less stretching. This measurement also allows you to trim this unit to a perfect 3 1/2" square. Just center your ruler at 1 3/4" on the block intersection to trim.  

4. Press seams open on the block units. This helps your block lay flatter. I also like to use a clapper to flatten seams as I go. Seams pressed in alternating directions are utilized when sewing the block rows together for opposing seams. 

Thanks for joining me and all of the Moda designers for Blockheads 6.

KT June Special

 Christmas is HERE!

We're so excited to share my new A Vintage Christmas collection by Moda. It arrived a couple weeks ago and is quickly disappearing out the door. Don't miss your chance to make a project featuring this line with our Christmas Bells wall quilt/table topper.

Christmas Bells 38"sq.

 

Several of the fabric prints in this collection were inspired by vintage wrapping paper. It was so fun to dig through a box of my Gramma's Christmas keepsakes and find a stack of neatly folded, used wrapping paper that has to be older than me!  I love this bell print and immediately envisioned it as an applique. 

 

Our Christmas Bells kit includes a Vintage Christmas charm pack plus all fabric for quilt top, binding & applique, buttons and pattern and Free Shipping for only $45! That's a savings of over $20 (with shipping costs)!

Don't wait, they're going fast and we have a limited supply of fabric and charms.

KT April Special

 Pillows, Pillows, Pillows!

I love pillows of all shapes and colors - pillows on the church pew by the front door to welcome guests, pillows on my chair, pillows on our bed. If I have leftover Jelly Roll strips or fabric scraps after making a lap quilt, I make a matching pillow. I have found over the years that the simplest way to make a pillow and have less to store is by making a pillow topper I can tie over a covered pillow. Easy to make, easy to change out for the seasons.

This month, all of our tie-on pillow toppers are on sale! Choose one of our pillows for any season. Here are few...

 

Kits include fabric for pillow topper and pillow cover plus pattern and Free Shipping for only $30 (retail w/ship $44.95). Find all of my tie-on pillow toppers HERE.

KT February Special

 KT Fat Quarter 8-Pack Bundles

January is a good time to organize, edit & clean your sewing space. You can see what you have, what needs to be finished and what supplies/fabrics you're running low on. By making a list of your upcoming projects for the year, you can fill in your stash where needed.

Did you know February is the perfect time to add to your stash? If you see you're low on background tans, grab an 8-pack. Do you have enough purples and golds for spring projects? Add an 8-pack. I'm always low on reds, so I'm grabbing an 8-pack (or two) to fill in my stash. That way, I'm never waiting on fabric when I'm in the middle of a quilt.

This month, we're offering 8 fat quarters of the same color in a bundle for only $29.95 plus Free Shipping (retail value with our $5 ship = $41). That's over 25% off!

 

 

We have all your favorite KT colors - tan, gold, red, blue, green, purple, pumpkin, brown & black.
