A Trio of Unicorns

When three unicorn patterns appear in the top 100, you know they are becoming mainstream! Unicorns are not just for pre-tens anymore! Whimsey is the order of the day!

Nola is a collage by Laura Heine that is the stuff that dreams are made of!

Lisa the Unicorn by Elizabeth Hartman is created with 2 1/2″ strips.

Whether you choose to create a unicorn or horse, Violet Craft’s techniques can help make that a reality.

Each pattern showcases a different technique and would be great additions to your class schedule!

Elizabeth Hartman Shines

Elizabeth’s booth at Market made everyone smile. Here is a sampling of her new patterns. Spectacular Savanna uses four different Robert Kaufman Kona cottons – Pepper, Snow, Wasabi, and Metal.

Leafy Quilt is stunning and makes me yearn for tropical climes!

Who doesn’t love Lemurs and a whole quilt of them? Even better!

Leafy and Lemur patterns are already in stock. Savanna will be coming soon!
