But first, lets back up a little.
You may or may not have noticed that I haven't blogged much this summer - nor have I done a lot on Facebook. Here's why.
I spent the summer making (along with Amy and Marie) "Over the Meadow and Through the Year" out of my fabric line "Fern Hill" and Betsy Chutchian's fabric line "Hope's Journey" - both for Moda, of course. And I not only made the quilt but I made most of the blocks twice because........
At the end of August I went to Des Moines and filmed 12 Episodes for a McCalls Quilt Along. I believe it will be available at the beginning of December. I'll keep you posted.
For now, this is one of my latest quilts - Fern Hill, 76 x 80. It's a 12 month BOM and should be available at your local quilt shop now - along with the fabric of course. The fabric shipped this week.
We are offering it as a kit in our store and we're offering it two different ways.
You can buy the kit for the whole quilt (it will include all patterns and fabric for all 12 blocks & binding) - or - you can buy it in 4 installments of 3 blocks each. To buy the whole quilt click here. If you wish to purchase it in installments, please call Tammie at 816-632-7632 or email her at janpatekquilts@centurylink.net. We will charge your credit card when each installment is shipped - and of course you have to commit to buying all 4 :). (There may be some substitutions.)

We don't have a regular quilt shop with all of a quilt shop's feature. I am mainly a designer and normally only sell a few things online. I thought it might be fun this year to have an event for a change and get a chance to meet a lot of you. Please do remember that this is my home, and a working farm with gravel roads and animals. :)
Hope to see you soon.
Very nice to see an update on your blog! All good news! I had seen the pattern for Fern Hill quilt as was patiently awaiting a kit or BOM offering. :-) Looking forward to the McCalls Quiltalong too!
ReplyDeleteI know. Sometimes it seems like it takes forever for the fabric to ship. Time really doesn't slow down but it seems like it does.:)
DeleteJan this sounds like so much fun! It would be great to see you again!
ReplyDeleteSee you then Rita. Should be a fun weekend.
Deletevery nice quilt...love the fern hill line!
ReplyDeleteThank you. :)
ReplyDeleteI am so very excited that 'Over the Meadow Through and Through the Year' will be coming back! I've always wanted to make this quilt but I could never find the pattern. Can you tell me when the pattern will be available for purchase? I would like to buy it so I can be ready for McCalls Quiltalong!! Thanks Jan!!
ReplyDeleteMcCalls will be selling the pattern, the kit and a set of DVDs. You can buy them all together or separately. Just watch my blog and I'll try to let you know when they're coming out.
