Garden Peony Pattern Release

When I shared about the recap of my 2022 goals in my 2023 goal setting post, I received some really lovely support and feedback. In particular M m mullins left this comment that got me thinking: I purposefully include "bonus patterns" in my more complicated curve piecing designs to show how to immediately put the large scraps to use in...

Sometimes, a quilt tells you what it wants. Different colors, specific quilting motifs, a particular binding; whatever the case may be. Sesen has taught me that sometimes quilt patterns can tell you what they need to be. Today, after taking the time to really listen to what the quilt had to teach me, I am really pleased to be...

Precession Pattern Release

When designers contract with magazines, part of the contractual agreement has to do with the rights to the pattern. I prefer to allow the magazine to have exclusive rights to the pattern for a period of time and to have them revert back to me so that I can release the pattern on my own as well. Today, I'm...

For a little over a year, I kept myself from working on transparency designs. I thought a lot about whether or not I would want to write a book and so instead of creating all the ideas and designs in my head, I filed them away and decided to think for a while. After a lot of thought, I...

A lot of the quilts I make are on commission. Sometimes it can be really difficult to walk a client through the decision process so that they select a quilting pattern that they will love. I have been working to develop a short questionnaire that I will occasionally use before digging in and discussing actual quilt patterns because being...

I really loved how the quilt top for Namibia Trees turned out, and I wanted to spend more time thinking about the quilting than I normally do. Instead of an all-over quilting design, I wanted to do something a bit more around the tree panels themselves. I have never really quilted a meandering, rounded, stipple pattern, so why not start...

The pre-cut kit was fantastic; in about a day I was able to complete the top and mostly complete the backing. I am taking a quick pause in making progress on this quilt to ask for some help. I plan...

Quilter | Designer | Tech Editor | Blogger

Yvonne is a former aerospace engineer turned modern quilter, designer, and technical editor. She was introduced to quilting by her paternal grandmother in high school when her grandmother offered to hand quilt a twin-size quilt to use in her college dorm room if Yvonne made the quilt top. Now, over 25 years later, Yvonne has developed a style that bridges her technical background and love of bold color, specializing in curves, transparency color play, and bold, geometric designs. Yvonne’s quilts have been featured in numerous national and international magazines, quilt shows, and books.
