Quilting Tutorials

We have had so much fun working with Michael Miller Fabrics this year as a brand ambassador! We've loved all the wonderful fabric and creative challenges as we came up with projects to fit each collection. We have one more quilt for you before the year is out! Buy the Pattern This quilt uses the Wild and Free collection and let me just tell you, if you love outdoor collections, this one is one of our absolute favorite. When we saw the fabric, we immediately knew it would be perfect for a quilt we had designed, but hadn't had the...

When we saw this fabric collection, we immediately knew what we wanted to do with it, and when we were asked if we wanted to play with minky as well, we gladly accepted!
