As I browsed around Jen’s so you wannabee a Domestik Goddess? blog I discovered a number of free quilt patterns.
Anna Maria Horner’s inner gypsy had to have been at play when she designed her 22 Lollipops Quilt and Bohemium Quilt - and the fabric collections that inspired them, too, mentions Jen.
The fabrics in the quilts shown on Jen’s blog remind me of fabrics my aunt and grandmother used in their quilts and dressmaking in the 1940s. Lots to reminisce there for quilters who created quilts then…or those who like that type of fabric. Anna Maria has adapted these fabrics into her unique patterns….which she’s willing to share.
Visit Jen’s blog to find where to get your patterns. You’ll also find other free patterns there.
I think you’ve put your finger on the appeal, exactly - that sort of Forties feel is nostalgic but lively, and works so well in many homes. Plus, it’s just so happy! Thanks for highlighting my post, Mary Emma - Anna Maria’s patterns are too good not to share!
