A New Pattern; A Roll of the Dice

Sandra Walker from MMM Quilts has a fun new pattern being introduced this week and anyone who knows me, knows that I love Sandra’s patterns!

This is a great pattern and includes 3 projects; a Baby Quilt, a Bed Runner and a Pillow.

A few of us were given the privilege of making projects from this pattern which is full of Sandra’s usual tips and suggestions for tutorials. This is an official DrEAMi project for me this month because I put everything else aside to enjoy making this sweet flimsy.

I chose to make a baby quilt since I had been asked by my granddaughter to make a quilt for one of her friends.

Cutting and piecing went very well, thanks to Sandra’s well written pattern and before I knew it I had a finished flimsy. 😁

I finished the quilt top and went hunting to find a perfect backing.

I was at the studio and finished another quilt and got this sweet little quilt on the frame. Then disaster struck and my Avante started being temperamental. I finally had to give up and call my favourite tech to tell him what was going on. He said my machine needed a spa trip so I wasn’t able to get it quilted.

Now it is set aside with backing and binding for the parts to come in for my longarm and then a trip to the studio.

This pattern was also used by some other quilters to make different projects:

You really should go take a peek at everyone’s interpretation of Sandra’s pattern. The fabric choices sure made me smile and want to make more of the projects in this pattern.

I’d like to thank Sandra of MMM Quilts for letting me be part of the group that were able to play with her pattern in advance of it being released.

Here is the direct link to the pattern for your convenience and I happen to know it’s on sale this week 😉

Again here is a photo of this fun new pattern with a direct link embedded to the pattern, which I can admit to wanting to make more of the projects. I’m thinking a bed runner and some cushions just might be on my wish list. 😉

Thank you for spending some time with me. 😄 Carol
