This quilt is a collaboration between me (Jeanie Sumrall-Ajero) and Teri Lucas.  I designed the quilt at the same time I was designing the template shapes for our Feathers Template Mini-Pack.  It was a bit of a challenge to put together the first time around – so much so that I scrapped that attempt and [...]

I made this quilt a few months ago as a class sample, but now that the holidays are here I thought I would enter it in SewCalGal’s 2011 Christmas Quilt Show. If you have any Christmas or Winter themed quilts – especially if they are made with Kaleidoscope Kreator – you can enter too!  Deadline [...]

Many months ago, Sarah Vedeler & I decided to do a joint project for Quilting Arts TV Series 900. It seemed like a great idea at the time, but of course we didn’t start thinking about it until a month ago when both of our schedules had really filled up!

I’ve been having way too much fun with our new Blossoms Template Mini-Pack which adds fifteen new shapes to transform your photos into fun flower designs. So I put together a project to inspire you to give them a try! The table runner started with the following photo. If you click on the photo below, it will [...]

While in Houston at International Quilt Festival, one of our customers turned me on to a great product called Little Windows.  It’s an easy way to turn photos into jewelry, but I immediately thought of using kaleidoscopes instead of photos. I can’t tell you how much fun I’ve been having the past few days making [...]

We’ve just returned from International Quilt Market/Festival in Houston and are finalizing everything needed to make our new Template Mini-Packs available by the end of the week via our online store. To whet your appetite for just a couple more days, I thought I’d post a project made with the Snowflakes Mini-Pack. These cards are [...]

Since we will be introducing our new template mini-packs at International Quilt Festival in Houston this week, I thought I would post a project (with instructions) that I made using the new Filigrees Mini-Pack to whet your appetite. As a reminder, the Filigrees Mini-Pack will be available for purchase via our website on November 12, [...]

We’ve hung these star lanterns in our booth at shows for a couple of years now and I’m always asked how I made them. After the AQS Quilt Show in Lancaster, PA last week, I decided it was time that I sit down and write up the instructions. Of course, you will need Kaleidoscope Kreator [...]
