Day 14 of Free Quilt Pattern of the MONTH from The Quilt Ladies

I know I’m tired when I start a Monday, with corn chips and a VERY large cup of coffee. I’ve been dipping the chips in the coffee too, I think it’s all the cream that just happen to make it’s way into my cup….Don’t tell.   You have to LOVE a Quilt pattern named, “English Rose” what says quilting more than as English Rose. The finished size this quilt block is ten inches by ten inches.  If you’d like the complete set of 68 of this series and how to make the quilt, it’s HERE for you !

Day Five of Free August Quilt Pattern Block from The Quilt Ladies

From The Quilt Ladies

This is a completely new quilt pattern book I have been working on. After the 4th of July holiday (2020), I was thinking about a quilt pattern of each state. And here is what “I” came up with, there are many others, this is MINE. This is a big quilt pattern block, finished size of fourteen inches by fourteen inches.
I just finished drawing the patterns and will start piecing the blocks soon, so if a measurement mistake??? Not fixed in making yet, but will be. 

AS always, I can ONLY give these pattern free, because you purchase and support me HERE
