Beginner Friendly

Quilty Trees is very beginner friendly. This tree quilt pattern is easy to follow along for the beginner quilter. It’s very forgiving since there are no seams to line up.

Use your stash!

This quilt pattern is super versatile since you can use fat eighths, fat quarters, 10in squares or your scraps! The cutting instructions are included in the quilt pattern for each size precut.

Quick and easy

Quilty Trees is a quick and easy quilt to make up! Most quilters will be able to have this one done in a day or a weekend.

I pulled a variety of solid greens for my version of Quilty Trees. I added the gingham and a subtle speckled print for some fun contrast.

This quilt is quilted on my machine using my favorite wavy stitch. It quilted up the exact same way as the multi zig zag stitch but uses the wavy stitch instead.

I kept this quilt soft and modern by using this subtle cream fabric for the backing and binding. I tend to use the backing as the binding often since it is the perfect way to use up all of that excess fabric from the backing. This quilt reminds me a little of the farmhouse style that is popular right now.

Make it scrappy

The Quilty Trees quilt pattern includes a full on scrappy option too! The instructions are included to make scrappy version using your scrap stash. I’m excited to make up this quilt below using my low volume scraps as the background and my greens as the trees.

Use multiple squares for the trees or use one fabric for the trees and a have a scrappy background.

Below is the colorful and playful Ruby Star baby version of Quilty Trees. I’m lovingly referring to this one as the Dr. Seuss tree quilt :)

Quilty Stars Quilt – The solid baby ones

The Quilty Stars quilt pattern includes a nice and easy baby size quilt. Quilty Stars is the brand new Quilty Love pattern available in the shop.

Use solids or prints

I used my leftover At Then Came June Kona bundles for two Quilty Stars baby quilts. I separated the colors out into two different versions. This baby size doesn’t need a lot of fabric so it was great for these leftover pieces.

Beginner friendly quilt pattern

Quilty Stars is a good beginner friendly quilt pattern. The measurements leave plenty of room for trimming up perfectly sized half square triangles. The trimmings of these two solid quilts were too pretty not to photograph :)

The original Quilty Stars Quilt is made up using prints from my scrap bins so I wanted to see how this quilt might look in solids. It turned out so fun in these range of colors. Each quilt sticks with two colorways to keep it a bit more cohesive.

All the quilt sizes

The Quilty Stars quilt pattern includes instructions for a baby size, throw size, twin size and king size. It also includes instructions for a solid background like these quilts or a super scrappy background.

Since I quilted these baby quilts myself I went with my favorite wavy stitch pattern. It’s simple, easy and so forgiving. Plus, look at that texture!

I have a similar tutorial for this kind of quilting here. Swap out the multi stitch zig zag setting for the wavy stitch on your machine.

Our little babes is already 6 months old! I brought her outside for a fun photo shoot with these two new baby quilts.

Make Quilty Stars for your next quick and easy baby quilt! Use up that stash of scraps or fat quarters for this fun scrappy star quilt

Home Run Quilt – A baseball quilt pattern

The Home Run quilt pattern is finally available! This baseball quilt is perfect for all of the baseball fans in your life.

Home Run is a couple of years in the making. My husband actually designed this baseball quilt pattern and has been begging me to make it for him for years.

I finally appeased him this year and sewed it up. I do have to admit that it is kind of fun and I can see how baseball fans are going to love this quilt.

Matt’s original idea for this quilt was to have one baseball diamond for each of the 30 professional baseball teams. The baseball diamonds are arranged by division so they are in some kind of specific order.

Two baseball quilt versions

My spin on it was to make it a one team quilt so quilters can sew it up in their favorite team colors. The pattern includes both versions.

Sew up the single team baseball quilt in favorite professional team colors or even your local team colors. For example, your son or daughter’s high school team colors or your granddaughter or grandson’s league colors.

Single Team baseball quilt pattern

The Home Run quilt actually sews up pretty fast. It’s an easy quilt pattern to make, especially the single team version. The single team baseball quilt pattern is made up of just three colors plus your sashing color.

At 60in x 73in it’s a nice generous throw size baseball quilt. You can always size up or down by adding or omitting blocks.

Blocks are trimmed to size making the assembly of the quilt top easy and accurate.

My Home Run single team baseball quilt is made up in the Seattle Mariner’s colors. There are quite a few Mariner’s fans in my house. My eleven year old claimed this quilt when he saw me making it. He’s pretty excited to have his own baseball quilt.

I quilted this baseball quilt with a grid pattern. It’s just one inch straight lines going both vertically and horizontally. I used my Janome MC6700p to piece and quilt.

The Robert Kaufman Kona colors used for this quilt are Emerald, Navy, Silver and Ash.

The backing is a Riley Blake wideback in plaid.

Of course we had to include our newest Mariner fan in a few photos.

Find the specific solids for your favorite team in the pattern listing.

30 Team baseball quilt pattern

The 30 team baseball quilt includes one baseball diamond block from each of the 30 MLB teams.

The blocks are then arranged by division. I don’t know much about baseball but this makes sense to my husband and hopefully other baseball fans..ha.

You can arrange your own 30 team Home Run quilt as shown or in a random layout dispersing the colors

I used all Kona Cotton Solids for this baseball quilt. Solids needed for the 30 team version are:
White
Mulberry
Silver
Tan
Poppy
Water
Goldfish
Black
Royal
Coral
Navy
Emerald
Ash
Canary
Leprechaun

My husband is finally getting a quilt and hes pretty thrilled about it. Its even his own design!

This is the perfect husband quilt for those of you quilters who have husbands waiting for their quilts ;) It only took me 6+ years to make one for Matt…ha.

This baseball quilt was quilted by Knot and Thread. I picked out this baseball quilting design.

This 30 team Home Run baseball quilt is backed in a super soft linen by Robert Kaufman. I liked the grid pattern and thought it went well with the busy quilt top.

There are plenty of MLB fabrics available as quilt backs too! You will find just about every team here.

Find Home Run in the Quilty Love shop. I can’t wait to see your favorite team quilts start popping up! Use the hashtag #HomeRunQuilt on Instagram and tag me :)

Plus and Minus quilt pattern-The bright solids one

I’m excited to share this fun and colorful Plus and Minus quilt today! Plus and Minus has been revised to include this new version of the quilt. You can find the quilt pattern in the Quilty Love shop.

Plus and Minus quilt pattern by Emily of quiltylove.com. Modern plus quilt.

This Plus and Minus quilt is made up using the new At Then Came June Kona Cotton bundle. These solid fabrics are so bright and happy. It sure was fun sewing up this plus quilt in these gorgeous solids.

Plus and Minus was released a while back but recently got an update. The original version had more white space in it. I made up this quilt while designing the quilt since I couldn’t decide which way to go with it. Since then there have been many requests for this more fabric focused version so the pattern now includes all the sizes of both.

Beginner friendly quilt pattern

The Plus and Minus quilt pattern is a beginner friendly quilt pattern. It’s a fun one that goes together quickly. The quilt pattern includes instructions for pressing so those seams all nest nicely. Nesting seams usually means a faster finish since less pins can be used.

2 Versions included

The quilt pattern now includes two different versions of this plus quilt. This solids quilt is Version One. You can see Version two here.

All the quilt sizes

Plus and Minus includes instructions for a crib size, throw size, queen size and king size quilt

Precut or stash friendly quilt

This modern plus quilt is written around fat quarters. The pattern also includes cutting instructions for 1/4 yards and fat eighths. It’s actually a good stash quilt since you can use a smaller cut of fabric for each block.

I quilted this bright and colorful Plus and Minus quilt using my favorite wavy stitch on the Janome MC6700p. I’ve been using this stitch quite a bit lately because it seems to work on every quilt and looks way harder than it is!

I have a tutorial for zig zag quilting with a walking foot here. This is the same technique but just uses a different stitch.

It’s nearly impossible to photograph quilts these days without adding a cute little baby on it ;) She loves all of the attention she gets when she is my quilt model so it’s a win win.
