I made this block of the month sampler with some gorgeous fabrics and colors. And what was the most amazing about it was that we spent the summer of 2006 traveling the Pacific northwest in our camper, following the Lewis & Clark trail along the way…but my husband also had speaking engagements in Portland and then Sacramento. So, we loaded up our four kids and two dogs and hit the road! We’d stay in a campsite for three or more days, enjoying everything around us…and then move on down the road to the next campground to do the same. One of the places we stopped had an aquarium that we took our kids to. I took this photo below, thinking of how beautiful the colors were…and then I realized I was working with those exact same colors in this 2006-2007 BOM quilt!

Flashback Tuesday: Purely Nine 2011 BOM Quilt Exclusively Designed by BOMquilts.com
What can I say about this super-simple quilt…except it is purely divine! The blocks are big so the size of your quilt is bigger. And I can tell you first-hand that my youngest daughter sleeps under her Purely Nine quilt of Love every single night.

Flashback Tuesday: Bittersweet Churning 2012 Block of the Month Quilt from BOMquilts.com
Have you ever designed and made (or just made) a quilt where you felt, down deep in your soul, who the quilt was for…before ever choosing who to gift a quilt to? This one was mine. When I started it, I had no clue who I would gift or sell it to. But once it was complete, I knew who should have it.
Ultimately, this is a quilt made of nine-patch blocks. Each block is different and yet, each is the same.

I gifted this quilt to my foster mother, when she came to winter with us in early 2013. And to say that she loved it would be an understatement. She was tickled, excited and felt beyond blessed that I gave her one of my quilted creations – from my quilted heart to hers.
It’s never too late to give a quilt of love to a special someone in your life!
Flashback Tuesday: Lovely Table Toppers
I designed and made this trio of “Lovely” spring table toppers, with free patterns at BOMquilts.com, for a friend who wanted to use them to display her products at local craft shows. I think they are sew very simple to make and if you made them with four different fabric sets, you could have one each for every season!
Flashback Tuesday: Butterfly Garden
When I first friended Ellen Medlock, I believe she had just released her second line of fabrics. I offered to design and make a quilt for her to sell kits for. Butterfly Garden was the quilt I designed and made from her “Flight Pattern” fabric collection:
“Butterfly Garden” designed by TK Harrison for BOMquilts.com using Ellen Medlock’s “Flight Pattern” fabric line.
Ellen has had more fabric lines designed since this one…but this is the fabric that spoke to me the most. Go ahead…take a step back in time and make this beautiful quilt out of ANY of Ellen’s fabrics!
