The creative possibilities are limitless.

The Orient
The Orient collection was inspired by one of our previous releases “Asian Quilt”. The Asian Quilt collection was designed years before the concept of Mix and Match quilting was released. I took a few pieces of the art from that collection and re-digitized them using a bolder bean stitch and folded fabric borders. The end result is like nothing you’ve ever seen. The folded fabric borders really compliment the designs.

Faith Quilt
I wanted to create a faith inspired quilt that was modern and full of exciting details. That was the inspiration behind the Mix and Match Faith Quilt. There are 16 jumbo blocks that use appliqué and feature popular Christian themes like praying hands, the dove, cross and fish. We used two different batik fabrics as the background and other corresponding batik fabrics as the appliqués in the designs. There are also folded fabric blocks, running stitch blocks and blank blocks included in the collection. Whatever type of quilt you want to create we are giving you plenty of options. As an added bonus we are including all 16 themes separated and rearranged to without the backgrounds to use on shirts or other projects. The individual designs come in two different sizes.

Blanket Stitch Christmas Blocks

When we were designing this collection we wanted to create a look that was created by hand while being completely done on your embroidery machine. This collection went through a lot of revisions and color changes before this end result was achieve. We finally decided on a gold and silver tonal color combination. These colors make the designs look luxurious and vintage.  The 20 main designs come in blocks and as individual designs. Designs come in 4 sizes and are interchangeable with the other Mix and Match collections. The blocks all include beautiful hand stippling and gorgeous borders.

Homespun Christmas

Hand embroidery has made a huge resurgence this year and with our Homespun Christmas collection we wanted to give you a hand embroidered applique look, except it will be done on your machine. The collection consists of traditional felt applique designs and running stitch designs. The felt designs are created using a blanket stitch technique with four layers of cotton thread. The four layers create a thick yarn like look and the use of a blanket stitch is a traditional hand technique. The process used to create the applique is very simple. The running stitch designs are unique as well; instead of a two-layered stitch they are created using seven layers for a thick beautiful look. They are also created using multiple colors so when you use them with the applique designs they coordinate beautifully. The project we created for this collection is a felt layered quilt. I”m sure you will love both the project and the techniques we used in these beautiful vintage Christmas designs.

For this project we created place mats and napkins. As you can see from the pictures we used just the apple designs for one of them and the pumpkin designs for the other. The napkins are embroidered with the small stitched version of the designs. When we planned this Harvest Quilt collection we decided to include some of finishing touches of quilting techniques right in the embroidery designs themselves! We made four different types of block designs with five different embroidery design themes. The themes are perfect for fall sewing projects: acorn, pumpkin, apple, oak and maple leaf. Each design is made in all four-block styles. Each block is offered in two sizes and the embroidery designs are also included separately in two sizes. Every block incorporates an embroidery technique and a quilt technique. Here is more information about the blocks:

20 Motif designs in 3 sizes 4.8", 5.8" 6.8".

When we create the projects for our embroidery designs, we usually add quilting and sewing techniques for a finishing touch. Then, when we display the projects at trunk shows and events, we hear comments that these finishing touches are often what you find the most difficult to do! So, while planning this Spring Quilt collection we decided to include some of these techniques right in the embroidery designs themselves! We made four different types of block designs with five different embroidery design themes. The themes are perfect for spring sewing projects: butterfly, dragonfly, blue bird, daisy and strawberry. Each design is made in all four-block styles. Each block is offered in two sizes and the embroidery designs are also included separately in two sizes. Every block incorporates an embroidery technique and a quilt technique.

Rose of Sharon
For our latest “Mix and Match” collection we chose a traditional quilting theme, Rose of Sharon. This type of quilt was typically created by hand using dozens of small applique pieces. The end result was beautiful but very time consuming. Instead of hand piecing and sewing blanket stitches around all of the beautiful leaves and flowers we decided to use machine applique and surround the shapes with stain stitches. The end result is stunning! This collection comes with 20 main blocks as well as rectangles, squares and triangles. The addition of these other shapes allows you to create exciting combinations of designs.
