KT Winner
Congratulations to the winner of our KT fat quarter 8-pack!
T Holzer - I
don't have a whole lot of fat quarters, but when I visit a quilt shop
and I'm not really "buying" that day, I try to buy 4 FQs to support the
store. I just buy what I love so I have the most KT FQs! When I get
home, I fold them all the same...quartered both width and length wise
and then they get stored according to colour. They are all stacked in a
glass curio cabinet and I can always see what I have. But the bad
thing for me and FQs is that once I buy them, I don't want to sew with
them!!! I want to collect and keep them!!! Thanks so much for this
chance.
Thanks for commenting. I totally agree with you - it's hard to cut into fat quarters. They look so good all tied up in stacks! I save a fat quarter bundle of each fabric line I design and swear I won't cut into them - no matter what. Just a few have a small square out of one corner when I was desperate. Maybe I need to save two fat quarter bundles!
I didn't have a chance to post while we were traveling, so we also have a winner of the new Meadowlark's Song pattern. Congrats to:

On Meadowlark Pond is almost here!
We're rather impatiently waiting for my new spring collection, On Meadowlark Pond, to arrive. The weather in Kansas is still cold and icy, but I'm ready for some spring sewing, how about you?
The Meadowlark's Song quilt is shown above, featuring a Layer Cake and traditional piecing instructions. I also designed a Jelly Roll project called Bird Watching that can be made using my Layered Patchwork technique or traditional piecing in scrappy or red colorways.

Our charm pattern for this line is Meadowlark Baskets. Cute little baskets traditionally pieced sport fused bias handles for easier construction. A charm plus a few fabrics is all you need to have a spring-y accent for your home.
If you want to be one of the first on your block to get a piece of On
Meadowlark Pond, join our KT Collector's Club. You'll receive 6 fat

our club packs now, so call the store and sign up today! 785-488-2120
Comment to win a charm pack and the new Meadowlark Baskets pattern. Share with us your thoughts on precuts such as charms, Layer Cakes and Jelly Rolls - love them? collect them? search for patterns especially for them? I'd love to hear from you.
I love using precuts, but...I don’t find many patterns that I absolutely love to use them in. Your basket quilt is CUTE!
ReplyDeleteI love the new basket pattern!! I enjoy precuts, so pretty to look at. I don't use them probably as much as I should because they are so pretty to look at in their neat packaging.
ReplyDeleteLoved your workshop and trunk show. Your fabrics are my fabrics, so yes, I'd love to win.
ReplyDeleteI especially like the charm packs. I have seen several patters using these cuts. The basket pattern is really nice.

I love precuts, especially charms and layer cakes. You get a sample of each fabric and, depending on the pattern you are using, some of the cutting is already done for you!

I have been holding out for your Meadowlark collection to make a special quilt, so happy it’s coming soon.
ReplyDeleteAs for precuts, my first attempt at making a quilt to see if I could even do it was using a jelly roll...I could, and I was hooked! I jumped right into quilting ( had no idea of the magnitude of the industry even with being a sewer), but I’ve been cutting and piecing fabric or FQ’s since. I didn’t realize how versatile jelly rolls were until I saw your Birdwatching pattern. I’ll have to look for some patterns designed specifically for certain precuts. Thanks for a chance to win and for the new perspective :)
Now to buy some of those tone on tone FQs....yay!
Charm packs are my 'go to' pre-cuts especially for baby quilts. Love layer cakes, too. Always amazed at how much fabric there is in a layer cake.
ReplyDeleteI find charm packs and layer cakes very useful but not so much jelly rolls. So often quilt patterns have pieces larger than 2 1/2 inches. Meadowlark Pond is beautiful and a charm pack would be lovely to win!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Lynne!
ReplyDeleteI love precuts, with the jelly roll being my favorite. Probably because the very first quilt I made was with a jelly roll. I have a stash of all precuts that are aging for future use.
ReplyDeleteLove thumbing through charm packs & layer cakes to see all of the fabrics in a line. I always look at layer cakes as getting 4 charm packs. Using the mini charms means all those little squares are already cut for you. Your basket quilt is interesting in the placements of the baskets & yea fusible handles.
ReplyDeletei love precuts....it is nice to have a group of wonderful coordinating fabrics to work with. someone else has done all the work for me :) so that i can just get right to work on my project. thanks for the give-a-way lynne
ReplyDeleteI love all of the precuts and have used lots of them.
ReplyDeleteYes, I too enjoy the precuts.
ReplyDeleteI have loved charms for a long time & now I love layer cakes! It is hard to cut into a layer cake tho :)
ReplyDeleteOh, I can't wait for this new collection! I have loved precuts since they came on the scene. I thought they were the greatest ting ever! I especially love charm packs.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love basket quilts and your Meadowlark Basket pattern is adorable! I seem to collect pre-cuts and love to look at them especially. I have no problem cutting into fat quarters or charms but am always reluctant to cut into layer cakes or jelly rolls. They look so nice just the way they are.
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is so beautiful! I love love love precuts, all of them. Enjoy your day! :-) :-) angielovesgary2 atgmail dotcom
ReplyDeleteI love the new line! I love all precuts. I pet them, stack them and sometimes I even make quilts out of them.
ReplyDeleteThe Meadowlark quilts are beautiful -- lovely spring colors! My collection of precuts is growing, mostly because I don't have enough time to sew.
ReplyDeleteI'm never disappointed with your fabric lines!!! I've been using my KT stash for the Blockheads, so I'm looking at them everyday as I try to get caught up in this "lovely" weather.
ReplyDeleteI am a fan of precuts and have collected many patterns for using them.
ReplyDeleteI find they make great quilts for gifts. I love the color range in your new fabric line.
Meadowlark Baskets is an adorable pattern and the fabrics are gorgeous. I love your colors so much. Thanks for a chance to win!
ReplyDeleteI like the precuts and I do buy (lots of) them. I don't always have a pattern in mind when I see fabric I really like but if I buy a precut or two and some yardage, it's a kit waiting for a pattern. I'm really liking the Bird Watching pattern so it's a good thing I have some KT jelly rolls on hand.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a fan of precuts mainly because I like to starch my fabrics and shrinking always occurs. I prefer to buy fat quarters or yardage, wash, and starch. I do search for patterns that use precuts as I cut my scraps into those sizes. Love the basket quilt! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI buy lots of pre-cuts because they are so cute, but they are hard to take apart and use because of that!
ReplyDeleteI have bought and sewed up a lot of layer cakes. I'm kind of on to fat quarter bundles is I can afford them. Jelly rolls aren't really a favorite but I just used up three charm packs I had saved and made a fun quilt. I love your Meadowlark's Song quilt the best!
ReplyDeleteI have a basket quilt on my "to do" list and this just may be the one!!!
ReplyDeleteLove your basket quilt! I do "collect" precuts. Like use use charm squares in table toppers and layer cakes and jelly rolls in larger quilts.
ReplyDeleteI love precuts, especially the charm squares. You see I can have a little dab of every fabric:). I do need to start using my "collection". Looking for patterns.
ReplyDeleteI like precuts because a scrappy quilt can easily be created. I do look for patterns that use precuts. I tend to buy Charms, Jelly Rolls & Layer Cakes and sometimes I buy FQ bundles. I love the Bird Watching quilt and Meadowlark Baskets.
ReplyDeleteI generally buy a lot of fat quarters to have a good variety of colors. Mostly Kansas Troubles when I can find them. They are my favorites! Jelly rolls are my 2nd choice.
ReplyDeleteI got the Meadowlark's Song when you were in Tennessee! Waiting NOT so patiently for the fabric...I'll be ready to start as soon as the fabric is available.
ReplyDeleteI like precuts in that you can get several different fabrics in smaller amounts, but I still prefer yardage.
ReplyDeletePrecuts are fun as so much of the cutting for a project is already done for you. I think I have used strips from jelly rolls the most, but the charm pack is great to make a quick baby quilt from. Like you I have also 'saved' many precuts in their 'original' form as they look so perfect on the shelf all wrapped up. Your new line does look like one of these! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI like layer cakes as they are more versatile than the strips. I also have had trouble with charms being irregular in cut so I won't get them any more. The Meadowlarks Song pattern is really nice, but the baskets are lovely too!
ReplyDeleteI'm a collector. I love having them handy to select fabrics I want to use in projects. And the charms and minis are fabulous for using to make scrap type patterns. I'm currently using your charms in a project with pieced baskets. No two alike! Love the new baskets.
ReplyDeleteI mostly work with charm packs. Have not found patterns I like for jelly rolls.
ReplyDeleteI really love to pick out my own fabrics but I always have some precuts on hand for in-between projects—and sometimes I’m just really drawn to the entire line of fabrics and a selection of precuts gives me that “fix”. If I had to pick a fav, I’m kind of into jelly rolls right now but at any given time I have a couple sets of precuts in every “size”.
ReplyDeletebeautiful as usual. I love precuts and I have so many you could say I collect them to. Thanks for your talent. Jenellejb(at)aol(dot)com.
ReplyDeleteI love precuts! I buy them and then save them and admire them until they are perfectly aged. Then I find the perfect pattern to use them in. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI do all three -- love them, collect them, and look for perfect patterns for them. Beautiful new fabric and patterns! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteLOVE your Bird Watching pattern ... will have to see where to get that! Precuts? When they first came out I was reluctant to purchase because of price and also wasn't sure what I could do with them. The pendulum has swung the other way ... instead of yardage I will purchase precuts hands down ... SO many patterns are out now and they are fun to sew. Since cutting is my LEAST favorite part of quilting these make quilting even more fun for me! Linda
ReplyDeleteI love precuts and seem to collect them more often than I use them. LOL
ReplyDeleteCharm packs are my fave! They're small and stacked easily, and not to mention they are super easy to flip through and look at all the patterns. I especially love that they already have pinked edges so its easier to sew using your layered patchwork technique!
ReplyDeleteI love all pre-cuts, saves so much time, I hate having to cut everything I would much rather be sewing. Thanks for the chance.
ReplyDeleteI have liked and utilized pre-cuts since they have come on the market. I have collected mainly charm packs and a few layer cakes, but don't appear to have any jelly rolls. Your bird watching pattern may change that.
ReplyDeleteI love working with precuts! There is one bad thing about them, though - they (all of them) are quite addicting!!!😊
ReplyDeleteI do love precuts as I work so many hrs it lets me get right to the fun part. Charms are great as I love to see what is in the entire line in one little package!
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love precuts. Whether it's a jelly roll, charm pack, layer cakes or the sweet treats. Having patterns that are especially tailored to make with them is the best!! I enjoy selecting and coordinating fabrics but there is something special about having the whole line in one bundle!! I'm really excited about the new KT line "On Meadowlark Pond". I am so ready for Spring and the beautiful fabric to come. At the June Retreat will we see some of your other new lines of fabric in the works?
ReplyDeleteI love precuts but I have such a hard time figuring out which pattern to use with my precuts. Love the On Meadowlark Pond fabric.
ReplyDeleteI love precuts and the mini charm packs are like candy! I can never buy just one!
