Ava Kate Quilt Bundle – Now Available!

I am so excited to introduce with my new collection Ava Kate hitting stores this month! And to go along with this new fabric release I have new quilt patterns!

I have 9 new quilts that were originally going to be separated out into new patterns. However, instead I have placed them into a single bundle with bonus videos to help you learn how to sew them!

You are going to love the patterns! Simple enough for most beginners (and even kids) these quilts are the perfect edition to your quilt library!

And because I was able to bundle them, I have an amazing deal for you! Click here to see if the deal is still going on!

https://www.carinagardnercourses.com/ava-kate

This bundle features 9 brand new quilts with yardage and cutting instructions PLUS nine bonus videos showing you how to make these quilts!

Then I have also attached a secret bonus quilt pattern, along with the Spring Sampler Quilt, and Ava Kate Chain Quilt so that you have all the patterns (plus videos) for those quilts. The Spring Sampler Quilt has NINE cute blocks that you could mix and match into any number of quilts!

Hope you get to make these quilts! And of course, I would love to feature YOUR quilt in my stories! Be sure to tag me if you make any of these (in ANY fabric!).
XOXO,
Carina

So Ruby Christmas Quilt Along Begins Today!

Today we are starting our So Ruby Quilt Along at @carinagardner!

 

Videos are being posted everyday on instagram and at the end of week I will have a consolidated video on youtube. If you haven’t bought your supplies yet, here is that information:

You will need the following supplies:
+ A fat quarter pack of So Ruby Fabric
+ 1/8 yard of light interfacing
+ 1 1/3 yards of white fabric (Note: technically you can use the WHITE patterned pieces in fat quarter pack for this if you want a more patchwork look!)
+ about 1 1/2 yards backing

Tag your posts #carinaquiltalong so I can see what you are up to!

The final quilt is about 44 in. x 55 in. If you plan on machine quilting it yourself you will need crib sized batting.

Here’s the plan this week!

CUT THE FOLLOWING:

Monday, November 12th: Tree Quilt Block

+ eight white 3 in. x 3 in. squares

So Ruby Christmas Quilt Along

Hi everyone! To kick off my new line So Ruby, I am hosting a quilt along on instagram! I’ll have 5 days worth of videos starting on November 12th-16th at @carinagardner. And the quilt you will be making is the one shown here!

You will need the following supplies:
