    Perfect for beginners, but something for everyone

    This is a fabulous quilt pattern book with such lovely patterns that are recognizable blocks but are made modern and updated. Melanie puts a tremendous amount of thought into her patterns in making them easy to understand with clear directions and diagrams every step of the way. She includes tips on every pattern along with personal stories that make you feel that you’re working together in her quilt studio—utterly charming! The pages are colorful, heavy weight to last a life time of abuse, and SPIRAL BOUND so it’ll lay flat on your quilt table. Well thought out in every respect. Make sure to buy one for yourself and for that person in your life who wants to start their own quilty journey! I highly recommend this book!

    Melanie Traylor is a breath of fresh air in the quilting world. The instructions are very clearly written. I’ve already purchased three bundles of fabric to start on my 3 favorites!

    I thoroughly enjoyed reading through the book and absorbing all the tidbits. I have been quilting for a few years now but still have so very much to learn. I will definitely be making a few of the quilts down the road! Thank you Melanie

    A life with quilts

    I absolutely love this book. From the beautiful front cover to the very well laid out patterns. The patterns that you receive in the book are so pretty and even a beginner quilter can make them. Thank you Melanie for sharing your thoughts and designs with us.

    A Life with Quilts book

    This book is a delight. The excellent photography immediately one's attention and captures the charm of the quilts. Melanie's patterns are the most clearly written I have used. Even as an experienced quilter, I appreciate the tips that she includes. I highly recommend this book

    A Life With Quilts pattern book

    The patterns are nice easy and look enjoyable to sew. I am looking forward to sewing them. The pictures are lovely and the instructions are clear. The print quality of the book is good. I like the spiral binding. The only issue I had was it came with the cover and tips of pages bent. It likely happened in shipping.

    A lovely book with a wonderful narrative. Clear pictures, a nice selection of patterns with precise instructions. The spiral binding is a nice addition to the book and makes it easy to navigate. This book does not dissappoint

Description

I want to spend everyday making quilts. Some days that might mean I sneak in fifteen minutes, and some days are ALL DAY LONG. I'll take whatever I can get. A day with my hands buried in fabric or fiddling with patchwork is a day well spent.

I wrote this book for the beginner quilter who has just fallen down a rabbit's hole. I wrote it for the seasoned quilter who needs a little fresh inspiration or a look into other ways of making. I wrote it for the quilter who just wants to look at yummy photos and hear a bit of rambling from a fellow quilt maker. I wrote it for my grandma whose well used hands would pet her quilts and tell me where the fabric came from. I wrote it for us, I wrote it for YOU.

  • A soft cover wire bound book will be mailed to you.
  • Patterns are all beginner friendly and play with color combinations.
  • Skills that are required are straight line sewing, making flying geese and snowballing. THAT'S ALL!
  • Some of the quilts are quite quick and some may take a bit longer.
  • My favorite part of this book is that it comes with FIVE quilt patterns (no side projects, just quilts!).
  • Smallest pattern is 60x60", largest pattern is 76x96".
  • Patterns included are Mariposa, Lulu Louise, Sassy Granny, Hello Posy and Attic Window.
  • All patterns are illustrated. If you like the look of my usual patterns, the book patterns are just like them. Very easy to understand and read!
  • There are 64 pages in the book.
  • All patterns are fat quarter friendly, except one.
  • I've tucked methods, memories and ramblings within these pages.
  • I will be running quilt alongs for each of these patterns in 2022.
