I really like the look and feel of "Homespun Square" with its soft homespun fabrics that just beg to be curled up in. It's a perfect quilt to use indoors or out. The ragged edge adds to the relaxed look and makes finishing the quilt effortless.

The traditional Nine Patch and Rail Fence blocks teamed up to create a graphic design. Stitch your own "Patched Fence" using a combination of your favorite complementary fabrics. Just be sure one is light and the other is dark.

Looking for a way to display lots of pastel prints? "Garden Rickrack" has the perfect palette to achieve a soft-looking quilt. The long winter days in Northeast Pennsylvania will seem less harsh now that an indoor summer garden will be spread across a bed.

The large stars surrounded by Rail blocks give this quick-to-stitch quilt an interesting look. "Five Star Comfort" is an ample size lap quilt, or it can be used as an attractive wallhanging.

I'm looking forward to the day when my husband Dan and I will hear the great news, "You're going to be grandparents!" This sweet "Baby Quilt" has such a soft look and is just the right size for a new baby.

When a new baby arrives, the big sister or brother may feel a little left out. Sew this "Big Sister Quilt" (a variation of "Baby Quilt") to make a little someone feel special. It's fast, easy and sure to be enjoyed since their favorite blankie is probably well worn.

How happy I am that my daughter, Ann Baxter, loves to quilt too! She found that piecing "Checkers Anyone?" was so easy. The stars and stripes surrounding the quilt center make a perfect frame for this large checkerboard.

Do you want to make a fun quilt? "All American" is as easy as apple pie and cute, too, when placed on a bed or hung on a wall. The long stripes and bright stars shout out, "made in the U.S.A.!"

My daughter-in-law, Kelley Hearn, loves to sew and is always dreaming of her next quilt. Kelley stitched "The Village Green" using the Puss-in-the-Corner block design. The pieced squares create a delicate chain that softly flows throughout the quilt.
