Betsy's Little Quilts

We had such a great time with Betsy Chutchian earlier this year when she was visiting from Texas.


There were so many little quilts packed into her suitcases, it was hard to narrow down to our favorites!  We've re-created two of her original doll quilts - in new fabric - our best effort to reproduce the originals from what we have in stock.  It's pretty satisfying to complete a little quilt and have them available for display in no time!  It's also a great way to try a technique or test out a block or fabric combination.

We have a few fabric and instruction kits still available for this Birds in the Air quilt - stop by and check out our version in person!  Betsy's signature chubby thimble has also been recreated - we have a stamp available on our website for this one if you want to try your hand-piecing skills.

We are gearing up for some fall sewing and hope the smoke and wildfires have cleared out for good.  School is back in session and we are getting our fall class schedule nailed down.  Stop in and see some of our project samples and find some fall sewing inspiration.

  1. Wow, TT version of Betsy's original is amazingly close. I may just have to order that and try some hand piecing. Have seen some great pics of the little quilts from that class.
