Introducing Modern Triangle Quilts

finished quilts· Modern Triangle Quilts· quilt pattern

4 Jan

Hi guys!

I’m delighted to kick off the New Year by letting you know that my 2nd book, Modern Triangle Quilts: 70 Graphic Triangle Blocks – 11 Bold Samplers, with Stash Books will be shipping oh so soon! I hear the books are in the warehouse anxiously awaiting their official release. (I’m picturing boxes upon boxes of books quivering comically with anticipation! Hehe!)

You can now pre-order signed copies in my shop. From now until January 18th, receive free shipping (up to $5) by entering “FREESHIP” at checkout.

Of course, I’ll be sharing more in the coming weeks and months, but for now I want to tell you about a few things I’m particularly excited about.

These 3 quilts, from Modern Triangle Quilts, are headed to hang at QuiltCon in Savannah, Georgia. Wow! That’s just a few weeks away. From left, the quilts pictured above are: “Equilateral Sampler”, part of the equilateral section; “Stardust”, part of the Isosceles section; and “Wake”, part of the right triangle section.

This is my doggie-baby, Bruce Wayne. You may have seen him over on my Instagram feed, but I’ve never introduced him over here. Bruce Wayne is a long-haired, miniature dachshund, though we think he’s not a long-haired but rather a fluffy-haired dachshund. Ha!

Nothing new to announce here, I’m just generally excited about his furry presence. Here he is “helping” as all babies, furry and human, are wont to do. 😉

Finally, I’ll be expanding my teaching offerings by offering 2 new online workshops. The workshops, “Playful Color Theory for Quilters” and “Design Improv with Triangles“, will be self-guided courses with interactive content delivered in a combination of short videos, worksheets, readings, resources, and more. Look for these workshops to be available late February/ early March.

Here’s a few pictures from filming the video segments in early December. I and the production crew had a wonderful time working together. It’s shaping up to be a lot of fun, so stay tuned! Interested in taking one or both of these workshops? Be sure to sign up for my newsletter for the latest and greatest class updates.

Lot’s of exciting things happening in 2017! Yah!

Remember to take advantage of free shipping (up to $5) on all orders from my shop, by entering “FREESHIP” at checkout.

Thanks friends!

    Hi. Don’t know if this is a proper place to address a question on you QUILTCON classes.
    Hope you can clarify. I am enrolled in two of your classes and am a bit confused. The course description indicates you will have the book and other bonuses for sale for $25 at the class. Whereas the supply list gives us prep work to do before the classes. The book is not yet available but I am hoping soon. Should I attempt to order or find the book before the class or should I not do the prep (not an option I prefer)
    Thank you if you are able to answer.

      Hi! Yah! I’m excited to see you in class!

      Yes it is a bit confusing. Sorry about that, but I put the book price there so people know they are required to buy the book. I don’t want there to be any surprises.

      So yes, it would be best to order the book and do the prep before class. The book will be available very soon!

    Hi Rebecca! I just purchased you book Modern triangle quilts and you mention a trimming tool. I looked in the book but did not find mentioned which kind you use. I would love to own one since it seems that it facilitates the job. Can we have the name of it? Thank you, love from Italy! The book is really a gold mine!!!!!!

      Yep! Everything you need is in the back of the book in the “Pattern Pullout” pages. Thanks so much!

Mark your calendars... I am revealing a BRAND-NEW Mark your calendars... I am revealing a BRAND-NEW block of the month design on May 1st! 🗓️ ✨

Yes, you read that right! 🙌

I have been working behind the scenes on ANOTHER block of the month pattern, and you’ll finally be able to see it on May 1st! 

And get excited, because this one is completely new and unlike any I have ever released before. I think you’re going to love it. 🤭

👉 Turn on post notifications so you don’t miss the reveal! ✨

I’ve just recently got all of these quilts back fr I’ve just recently got all of these quilts back from the quilter!!!! 😍

I think as quilters, we sometimes get really wrapp I think as quilters, we sometimes get really wrapped up in a project or wanting to finish by a certain deadline, that we forget to just play. 🙌

Triangle blocks are especially fun for playing with! 

Because the same exact blocks can look completely different depending on how you arrange them.

All of a sudden, you’re not just following a pattern anymore, you’re creating something unique. 🪄

And I think that’s where a lot of the joy in quilting lives.

Not in getting it “right” or making it perfect, but in letting yourself be curious. 

Letting yourself try something, change it, try something else, and be a little playful instead of precise.

Some of my favorite quilts didn’t come from a perfectly planned layout… 👇

They came from standing at the wall, thinking, “Wait… what if I try it like this instead?” 👀

So if you have a few triangle blocks sitting nearby, take a little time to play with them and see what kind of pattern they end up in. 

Comment ‘TRIANGLE’ if you want to take my free class where I teach you how to make a modern triangle, and give you a block pattern to start sewing. 💕

This time of year in the sewing room is always so This time of year in the sewing room is always so lovely. 

We FINALLY get to have the windows open, the world outside is getting colorful again, and the extra daylight is a big bonus. 

This is my recipe for a PERFECT April sewing day...

✨ Self care: plan meals/snacks for eating right & getting your exercise (booooooo! I know, I know.) Maybe a fun wee treat tho!?

✨ Entertainment: if it’s just you, get your show/ sporting event/ audible, etc. Or if you’re with your quilty buds, you know what to do! Sew, gab, laugh!

✨ Something you’re excited to sew: latest bingeable project at the ready!? Latest fabric stack that arrived in the post? Or...finally get that WIP d.u.n!

✨ Essential responsibilities taken care of: feed the dog, respond to that time-sensitive email, dinner for the fam? Take care of what you must get done so you can check out more completely.

Finally, set a timer for your hard stop time.

I set my alarm for when I need to pick up my kiddos from school. That way, I can get carried away by my creativity and indulge in “me” time!

Shut the laptop, check out, it’s sew time! 🧵 Everything else on your to-do list can wait. It is time for you!

What are you working on for a perfect April sewing day? ⬇️

If my WIP pile was getting out of control… here’s If my WIP pile was getting out of control… here’s exactly what I’d do: ⬇️

👉 Find a community of quilters to connect with, learn from, and grow with. People who cheer you on, celebrate your blocks, and make you want to keep going!!! 

👉 Make it easier on yourself with freezer paper piecing. This technique completely changed my life. I wanted to give up on quilting altogether at one point before I found freezer paper piecing. 

It’s not that you don’t finish quilts…

It’s that you don’t have the right support or the right process yet. 🧵✨ Comment ‘FREE’ to take my free class, learn the freezer paper piecing technique, and get invited to join an amazing community. 💕

One stitch at a time!!! 🪡 Sometimes, a few hours One stitch at a time!!! 🪡

Sometimes, a few hours (or days) in the sewing room just makes it all alright. 🙌

Who agrees? ⬇️
