Heritage in Hearthstone from Sew'n Wild Oaks Quilting Blog

 Hello Everyone,

I absolutely love to receive pictures from you, my cherished blog readers.  A few short months ago, Nadine asked me if I could send her the fabric requirements for my Heritage pattern using my Hearthstone fabric line.  Here is Nadine's beautiful and finished creation. Seeing her quilt is incredibly rewarding to me.


The quilt is also beautifully machine quilted.

I've always wanted to make a Heritage in Hearthstone, and I have added this to my list of quilts I want to make again.  Thank you so much Nadine for making my design come to life and ...

Two Beauties from Sew'n Wild Oaks Quilting Blog

 Hello Everyone,

I received two more pictures from quilters who made my patterns that I'm sharing with you.  The first picture is Country Courthouse which came from Jan.  This quilt took First Place and Viewer's Choice at Happy Trails Quilt Show in Surprise, Arizona.

Heritage in Hearthstone from Sew'n Wild Oaks Quilting Blog

 Hello Everyone,

I, like you, have been busy getting ready for the holidays, so I haven't been posting very often. I did run across this file on my computer where I re-colored my Heritage pattern using my Hearthstone fabric line.  I love the introduction of a bit of the plaid.


I really like it in this colorway and now I just need the time to make it!  Let me know if you would like the fabric requirements.


The house is all decorated and the presents are wrapped except for a few stragglers.  We've been going to Christmas parties ...

Eye Candy Day from Sew'n Wild Oaks Quilting Blog

 Hello Everyone,

I love, love, LOVE to see variations of my quilt designs.  This is my Heritage pattern made by my friend Kate.  Her color combination of red, white and blue is spectacular.  The machine quilting just puts this one over the top on the gorgeous scale.


The quilt started like this at a class I taught at Friends Around the Block in Colusa, CA.  Every quilt has a beginning and a beautiful ending.  Kate created an heirloom to enjoy for years and years to come.  Well done YOU!

Then I received this image of my Country Charmer design made ...

 Hello Everyone,

I love to receive emails and pictures from quilters around the country who've made my patterns.  When I opened this email from Dena in Wisconsin, my jaw dropped, and I uttered an audible gasp.  This is her gorgeous creation of my Heritage pattern.  


Here's Dena's email:
I just wanted to say thank you for this beautiful quilt pattern!  It was very easy to follow.  It is the first quilt I have finished and kept for myself!  I tend to make quilts and give them as gifts.  Some I have gotten very attached to, but I ...

Oh, La, La - Heritage is Traveling to France from Sew'n Wild Oaks Quilting Blog

 Hello Everyone,

The emails were going back and forth to France on Wednesday after I was contacted by the editor of QuiltMania magazine.  They want to include my Heritage design in their January/February issue!


This version of Heritage was made by the Independence Hall Quilters (IHQ) of Arnold, CA.  The quilt was the 2019 scholarship quilt, and raffled off at the Quilt Show last October.  All the proceeds from the raffle ticket sales went to scholarships for graduating seniors from Bret Harte High School in Angels Camp, CA.  

I spent multiple days cutting fabric from my stash for each ...
