I’m thrilled to share my newest quilt from Quilt Theory Pattern Company, available online for purchase for $3. Color Crossing features an ombre rainbow in one of my favorite, go-to block designs.

All you need for this pattern is 3 charm packs in your favorite colors, and the background fabric of your choice.  I used Kona Cotton in the Sunset palette, which you can purchase from amazon, right here (affiliate link).

Orange Peel Quilting by Stephanie Palmer of Late Night Quilter

I quilted this design in a traditional orange peel, or pumpkin seed pattern. I’l be posting a video tutorial on quilting the orange peel pattern soon, so stay tuned.

Our goal at Quilt Theory is to create simple and modern quilt patterns, and we design collections of patterns printed on small cards and one-page PDFs. As a group, we have become a strong team as we worked through writing, testing, editing, and quilting the patterns in our collection.

For our second collection, we challenged ourselves to write patterns that utilize pre-cut bundles of fabric. We hope you find a lot of inspiration in our collection to make quilts from your favorite bundles in your stash.

Stephanie Palmer

Like many quilter-moms, I do my best work after 9 pm when nobody is asking for a snack, or if they can watch TV, or what happened to their missing sock. Thus the name... The Late Night Quilter. I've been quilting for four years, and it's safe to say I'm hooked. For life. My husband and I are raising our four kids, ages 7 and under in Austin, TX, with a fat bulldog-beagle, three bunnies, two birds and a fish. I began blogging as a way to connect with others who share this addiction to fabric, art and the need to create. I hope you enjoy taking a peek into my messy, beautiful, chaotic, creative world.

    This is a beautiful quilt. I like to sew with fabrics I get on sale. And if I can find Art Gallery on sale, I am especially pleased.

  • Reply Lauri Gonzalez May 19, 2017 at 12:25 pm

    I like so many different lines that it is hard, but I do really like Soulful by Art Gallery Fabrics.

    My favorite fabric to sew is Kona Cotton. I love the “feel” of the fabric and the colors-I want a collection of them all!

    I love sewing with Robert Kaufman fabric.

    I don’t really have a favorite–anything from my local quilt shop is a pleasure to sew with!

  • Reply Mom C May 20, 2017 at 10:29 am

    Lately I’ve been sewing a lot with Art Gallery. It hasn’t been a real conscious decision but their color combinations speak to me. I’ve made at least 6 quilts since Christmas where they were the majority of the fabrics.

    I don’t really have a favorite fabric line. I tend to be very scrappy and mix many lines together. I really like this pattern.

  • Reply Monique Belmer May 21, 2017 at 8:58 am

    Pretty much anything designed by Alison Glass can almost always be considered my favorite

  • Reply anna May 21, 2017 at 1:17 pm

    I really like all fabric but lately I adore Art Gallery fabrics. They feel wonderful. Anything with color like Tula makes me happy.

  • Reply Susan L. October 18, 2017 at 7:34 am

    I really can’t pick just 1 favorite fabric line to sew with. I love so many! I do sew with a lot of Kona solids, & am especially fond of anything Kim Diehl.

  • Reply Rosalind Gutierrez October 18, 2017 at 10:07 am

    I like to use Kona for background fabric and Moda is also great to work with.

  • Reply Kathy Cummings October 18, 2017 at 11:16 am

    I have many favorites but currently, it’s Kona!
