Detour Placemats and Table Runner from Night Owl Quilting



I have wanted to have a large set of placemats to use at Thanksgiving and this was the year I made it happen.  I used the Detour pattern from Highway 10 Designs.  Instead of 4 placemats like the pattern is written for I made 16!


I stopped in to Kick Ass Country Store to visit Wayne last year and came across the fall leaf print that I recognized to be by designer Holly Taylor.  After a little research I have found out that it was from the Trail's End collection from 2012!  Wayne always have had a great eye ...

My Halloween Butter Tarts from Night Owl Quilting



I am so happy that I was able to to finish this Halloween quilt before the big day!    I had a Fat Quarter bundle of the Spooky n Sweeter Collection from Art Gallery Fabrics waiting for the right project for a couple of years.  Trying to come up with an interesting way to use them was actually how the Butter Tarts pattern for Highway 10 Designs came to be.


I knew I really wanted a pattern that used the Fat Quarters efficiently and didn't require a background.  The collection contained 17 fat quarters and I added 3 more from ...

Flannel Butter Tarts from Night Owl Quilting




Reneta made this great flannel version of the new Highway 10 Designs pattern called Butter Tarts.  When Reneta heard we were working on a new pattern she was eager to give it a try.  She had bought a flannel quilt kit with a pattern that was okay but not exciting her.  There were 12 Fat Quarters and enough fabric for borders and backing so she was off to the races.


Reneta chose one of the newer pantographs in my collection called Cinnamon Swirl.  It really adds some great texture to this cozy flannel quilt.





The Butter Tarts pattern and everything ...

Butter Tarts - New From Highway 10 Designs from Night Owl Quilting


Kathy and I are excited to announce the new Butter Tarts pattern from our shared venture Highway 10 Designs.  It has been more than 2 years since we last had an idea we were excited enough to work up into a pattern.  We are so excited that we are having a sale - more on that later.


The Butter Tarts pattern is Fat Quarter friendly and includes 6 sizes ranging from Baby to Queen.  One of the best parts of the pattern is that there are no HSTs or Flying Geese to make, so no trimming!

Roundabout Placemats and Runners from Night Owl Quilting


I made this set of placemats and runners for my daughter Kyla.  Kyla's table is either a large circle, or an oval with the leaf in.  The Roundabout pattern by our Highway 10 Designs is perfect (and was totally designed with her table in mind.)


I made six placemats and had enough left to made the bonus hexagon centre.  The pattern includes instructions on how to customize the size of the placemats to best fit your table.  (If you don't prewash your fabric and batting allow for shrinkage.)


I also made this runner that is one of two ...

Val's Simply Dashing 2.0 from Night Owl Quilting


This is Val's second unique interpretation of our Highway 10 Designs Simply Dashing pattern.  The pattern is written as a two fabric quilt that utilizes strip piecing for a fast and easy finish.



  Val made it her own by starting with some ombre fat quarters and doing a whole lot of organizing and planning along the way.  


I think the navy background really makes all of the other colors pop.  Val chose the Soho pantograph and a shiny blue thread.


Val chose her backing fabric from the small collection of Northcott wide backs that I have in stock.  This ...

Woodland Baby Quarter Sections from Night Owl Quilting


This is the 2nd baby quilt that I made for my first grandchild.  I asked my daughter if she had any requests for a quilt.  She didn't know if she was having a boy or a girl, but had decided on a woodland theme.  She said that she would like me to use one of my Highway 10 Designs patterns.   I was surprised at this request but was happy to oblige once we happened upon a super cute fabric collection.

Batik Detour Placemats and Runner from Night Owl Quilting


I pieced this table runner and placemat set a number of years ago, but only got them quilted recently.  The pattern is our Highway 10 Designs "Detour" pattern.



I originally intended to use some of this fabric in my Stellar quilt that you can see here, but there was a change of plans so I used it here instead.  At first I wasn't sure where I wanted to place my fabrics so I made a couple of samples.  Once I placed them on my table the choice was obvious.  Having the brown at the corners blended into my table ...

Batik Washboard Road from Night Owl Quilting


This version of the Highway 10 Designs Washboard Road pattern was made by me for a wedding gift.  I had a Hoffman Bali Pop in the Cappuccino colorway that I had been saving and this seemed like the perfect opportunity to cut into it.


I found a Moda Grunge fabric for the background and a nice dark batik for the border to bring it all together. 


For the quilting I used the Mimosa pantograph.  You get to see quite a few pictures of this one as my helper was available and the sun and wind were in my favour!

I opted for the more scrappy background and used a number of fat quarters from the Art Gallery Ballerina Fusion Collection. I liked the interesting shades of dusty pink. I love how the large pieces in ...
