Hi ,

Are you looking for a quick project to make this week? The Mini Block Easter Basket is a fast sewing project with a super cheerful finish. Make one for yourself, or all the Easter Bunnies in your family:

The Easter Basket Mini Block Pattern, Ms Bunny and Mally doll patterns are 60% off this month! Click Here to shop now.

I love pulling out my Easter Basket and cloth dolls to decorate for Easter. It's always fun to sew a new dress for Ms. Bunny to celebrate the season. 

The wonderful thing about sewing decor like this is you get to remember the process of sewing the project the first time and enjoy displaying your craft in a new way each year.

Looking for a Frame to Grow with You?

If you've been looking for a frame that can grow with you as you evolve as a quilter, the Evolution Hoop Hybrid Frame will be the perfect fit. I made this video a few years ago, but it's still helpful to understand how to set up this frame and how it will work with a home machine or longarm machine:

How the Evolution Frame can Grow

The Evolution Hoop Frame starts out small, but can be upgraded and expanded as much as you'd like. It starts out with a small-ish 66 inch wide footprint. I say "small-ish" because this frame does feel bigger and will require more room than a Cutie Breeze or Q-Zone Hoop Frame.

But the benefits of this frame far outweigh the extra space required. The Evolution has an overall sturdier build - bigger rails, legs and supports - and this is important because you can upgrade and expand the frame at any time to become an Evolution Elite 8 foot, 10 foot, or 12 foot rolling rail frame.

This frame can also switch between Rolling Rail Style quilting for smaller quilts (up to 42 inches wide), and Hoop Style quilting, for quilts of any size and shape. Being able to switch between these styles is very interesting and will make for a much faster quilting process for baby quilts on this frame. Click Here to learn more about the Evolution Hoop Frame.

This month Quilter's Creative Touch, our computerized quilting system is on sale for 10% off. This is an excellent time to add QCT to your quilting frame and expand your quilting capabilities.

Here's a new video I made last week which showcases two higher level features of QCT 6 Plus and Gold to place and quilt blocks:

QCT 6 Upgrades are also on sale this month and it's a great time to stock up on Gold Cards. 

The Gold level is a subscription for 365 Days of the best features within QCT. My favorite two features are Multi-Pattern Placement (showcased in the video above) and Pattern eClipse where you can clip out a design and quilt around shapes.

I used both features to quilt this panel and clip out designs around the daisy shapes. These are powerful tools that can create fantastic results!
