We are SEW excited to introduce the newest designer to join our crew: Marie Oman of Tea for Two Designs!

Marie has been designing quilts for more than 20 years and calls Cherokee, Iowa, home. She loves working with traditional fabrics, especially Kansas Troubles, and has a particular soft spot for scrappy quilts.

Her designs are all about mixing fabrics, playing with color and making something beautiful from the stash you already have. We can’t wait for you to get to know Marie and see what she has been creating!

Hey! We recognize that 'NOEL' quilt! Great job on all those finishes, Chris! 😍

Père Noël by My Beste Quilt Co is available at jar-designs.com! This quilt pattern is written to be finished in three different orientations. The one Chris created is the vertical option, while the other two options are horizontal and square!

Chris W has been stitching up a storm finishing all these projects! Top left is the Graces Garden Quilt, a pattern and fabric line from mom. Top right is a Julie Letvin quilt called As Time Goes By. And across the bottom is our Pere Noel kit that we offered last year (pattern by My Beste Quilt Co.). These are all great finishes and all fairly new! You have been busy Chris. Great job!
