The pattern is on sale for one week (through Tuesday March 28th at midnight) for only $7.00. (You can use coupon code TWOPATTERNS for $2 off two patterns or THREEPATTERNS $4 off 3 patterns in my Etsy shop for even more savings.)

The Canvas Lines was originally published as part of the Quilter's Planner 2017 with instructions for a lap sized quilt.  The full Canvas Lines pattern now contains instructions for baby, lap, and queen sizes.

Canvas Lines is a modern take on a tribal styled quilt design with strong geometric shapes and plenty of negative space.  The pattern also includes a coloring diagram to audition possible color schemes.

The cover quilt was made using prints from the Doe collection by Carolyn Friedlander for Robert Kaufman.  I quilted the cover quilt with a square meandering pattern using Aurifil 50 wt in white (color 2024). I think that the square meander added great texture to the negative space without taking away from the pieced blocks.

Just a reminder, you can find Canvas Lines at Etsy and Craftsy for $7 for the next week :)

Canvas Lines Quilt and Quilter's Planner

I wanted to share with you today, The Quilter’s Planner and my latest pattern, Canvas Lines, that is included with the planner!

The Quilter's Planner is my friend Stephanie from Late Night Quilter's project. This is the second year of the planner and it is better than ever! You can pre-order the planner from her Indiegogo site.

I use my 2016 planner to schedule my blog posts, organize my to-do lists, and manage my work, home, and quilting calendar.  One of my favorite parts of the planner are the patterns and I am honored to have a pattern called Canvas Lines in the 2017 Quilter's Planner.

I designed Canvas Lines with a slight tribal feel with alternating diagonal geometric shapes and negative space. Canvas Lines combined some of the prints from the Doe collection by Carolyn Friedlander for Robert Kaufman with some crisp Kona white fabric. 

I quilted Canvas Lines with a square meandering pattern using Aurifil 50 wt in white (color 2024). I think that the square meander added great texture to the negative space without taking away from the pieced blocks.

Aren't these some of the most beautiful quilt photographs you have seen? Kitty from Night Quilter has taken pictures of all of the quilts for the planner patterns along the coast of Maine. (If you would like Kitty to take some wonderful pictures of your quilts, you can find out more information about her photography offerings right here).
