DNA for Dr Amie Miller

This pattern was designed by Lynn Mann, a very talented quilter in south Orange County.  I decided that it was the perfect quilt for my cousin’s daughter who just graduated from medical school.  Amie had just purchased a condo and I thought it would be a nice touch since she lives in the mid-west and has a lot of snow.

The quilting pattern is called splat, batting is Warm and Natural and the quilt covers up a queen size bed.  Super easy – just looks difficult.

Thanks for reading.

Chinese Lanterns

Super fun and quick pattern.  Essentially, you make a Log cabin pattern (more like Court House steps).  Using Asian fabrics, it looks like strands of lanterns.  I finished this quilt and then we raffled it off to help a co-worker get some money for a new cancer treatment.

Unfortunately, she got worse before she could make the trip and passed away.  CANCER SUCKS!

There is this wonderful teacher from “Come Quilt With Me” Pat Yamin, who has a booth at Road To California Quilt Conference.  She has great patterns and has the template to go with the pattern.  This makes your quilt very accurante.  Using a plexiglass template as opposed to paper or cardboard is the best way.

I won the pattern in a drawing so decided to take her class earlier this year.  Pat is a fun teacher and we celebrate her birthday every January at Road.

This pattern consist of “Y” seams which Pat made very easy to understand and sew.  Try it!
