Patterns - Finally

40 comments
Its been a long process to create these 2 new patterns. It has been fun and I've so appreciated the encouragement I've received. I'm happy with the results and I hope they are clear patterns to read and make. My machine quilter, Wren Woodland (Sew Small Stitches) did such a fabulous job quilting both of them. Kelly McCaleb was my photographer and I am so happy with all the photos.


All Dressed Up Quilt Pattern - ready for download or delivery. You can see my side bar or Etsy store.
In The Leafy Treetops Pattern - ready for download or delivery. You can see my side bar or Etsy store.

The download works like this - I get notification a pattern has been ordered and then I send an email to your email address with the pattern attached as a PDF file to download.

I love the concept and creation of making patterns but the marketing end is harder for me. However, I am proud of the patterns.

Between the Christmas Cottage Block exchange and getting the final touches on my patterns, as well as other things going on - whew. My google reader is jam packed with posts and my email stacked up. I hope to get back to my normal routine (is there one?) soon. I've missed visiting my blogs and replying to comments like usual. Oh, and if you haven't been contacted yet by email regarding the Christmas Cottage Exchange, or have an issue/correction to make, please email me or Terri (what would I do without her help?).

Congratulations on finishing your patterns!!! I just bought a book on machine applique and if anything will motivate me to learn it will be wanting to make one of your adorable quilts!!!!

So, I'm curious....how do you copyright your patterns? I have a couple I want to start selling, but want to make sure they are copyright protected.

Nan said...

Your patterns are adorable, and I need them both! What a talented designer you are! I am going to try the download - I am intrigued by the idea. The photography is lovely, as is the quilting. Congratulations, Nanette!

Lordy it is hard to keep up in blog land isn't it. You miss a day or 2 and it's almost to hard to keep up. I'm so excited about your new patterns. The dress pattern will be coming home to me, LOL.
