Beach Cabana is a paper pieced quilt. A great project for those left over scraps. I’ll be teaching Beach Cabanas at the Myrtle Beach Quilt Party in Jan. You can purchase your pattern here.

During Symposium we will be debuting our new line of patterns, Floral Fling! This pattern line consists of 12 beautiful fused appliqué wall quilts. The patterns and kits will be available at the shop and in the vendor area.
