A Free Event Worth Clearing Your Calendar For!

If you’ve got a craft sitting unused — fabric in the closet, clay you never opened, a sketchbook gathering dust — check out the HobbyScool Back-to-Creativity Summit. It’s free, virtual, runs August 18–20, and it’s packed with beginner-friendly workshops.

✨  From “I’m Not Creative” to Making With Confidence

You don’t have to call yourself an artist to love this.
In fact, the makers who show up saying “I’m not really creative” often have the biggest breakthroughs — because they follow along step by step, without overthinking it, and finish something that genuinely surprises them.

The HobbyScool Back-to-Creativity Summit is built for makers who are curious, beginners who feel rusty, and anyone who’s set their craft aside and never quite picked it back up.

✦  Step-by-step workshops — every single session
✦  No expensive supplies required to start
✦  All skill levels, all crafts, all welcome

💚 A Fresh Set of Eyes
A big thank you to Lyn Dieken for pattern testing the Tropical Leaves pattern for me!

💚 It Takes a Village
A huge thank you to Kristen Sniadowski of Kristen Harden Sniadowski for pattern testing Tropical Leaves pattern for me!

Having a talented quilter sew through the pattern helps catch little things before the pattern reaches you. I’m so grateful for her help!

🌿Picking Fabrics Just Got Easier

Love the fabrics in my Tropical Leaves quilt samples? I’ve put together a coordinating fabric kit so you can start sewing without wondering what fabrics to choose.

Do you enjoy choosing your own fabrics, or do you love kits?

✍️ Skip the Tracing!

Want to save even more time? Use my pre-printed Hotfix Adhesive and skip tracing every template by hand. Just fuse, cut, and start creating. It’s one of my favorite quilting shortcuts!

Have you tried pre-printed fusible before?

🌿 See how it works at PatternsOnThePrairie.com (link in bio).

✂️ Designed to Make Life Easier

My templates are grouped by fabric color, printed full-size, and already reversed—saving you time before you even start sewing.

It’s one of those little details that makes a big difference.
Which do you appreciate more—organized templates or detailed instructions?

🧩 It’s Like a Puzzle with an Answer Key!

Every fusible applique pattern includes numbered reference pages showing exactly where each fabric piece belongs. No wondering... no guessing... just create with confidence.

Would something like this make appliqué feel less intimidating?

☺️Clear Instructions = More Fun

I work hard to make every pattern easy to follow with step-by-step instructions that guide you through the project from beginning to end.

That means less guessing... and more quilting!
