Looking For Simple Quilt Patterns for Projects?
Quilting is a skill that anyone can learn. It is smart to start with simple quilt patterns that are easy to understand and doesn't take too much time to complete a project. These little quilting projects can be used as gifts for most all occasions because they are so beautiful.
if you are looking for some free patterns that are easy to make, you can do a straightforward search on google or any other search engine. Just type into the search bar something like'free quilt patterns' and you'll probably find something you can use. There are dozens of places to get free or cheap patterns that will be easy to start with.
Here are one or two ideas that little projects can be turned into something beautiful as well as helpful. Always use your imagination and you can come up with ideas of your own that you'll be pleased with.
1. A Potholder is a helpful present
A potholder is a great gift when selecting a block from simple quilt patterns to use as the top. I love to use a 6 and a half in. to 7 and a half inch block for this project. You would just duvet and bind the potholder like a regular cover with one or two exceptions. Make efforts to use 100% cotton for your covering thread. If you use invisible thread, it'll melt when handling hot pans. You may also want to use insulated batting.
two. Give a set of Place mats
I made a set of four place mats and 4 coasters for my parents last year and they loved them! You can use the easiest of simple quilt patterns for this one - a checkerboard. What is great about this idea is that you will get plenty of practice binding quilts.
3. Youngsters love Tote Bags
Make it a market tote and give it to folks who need to break themselves of using plastic bags at the corner store. A quilt block can be employed as decoration. If you make the bag out of novelty fabric such as Sponge Bob or Barbie, you can give it to your favourite pre-teen as a library bag.
once you start putting these ideas into projects using simple quilt patterns you will become a quilting pro in a brief short time with much pleasure and enjoyment.
four. A Cover for Recliner Headrests
I found out about this idea by mistake. I made my mom a mini duvet version of the larger quilt I had given her as a gift. She used it as a cover for her recliner's headrest. It looks great. So much so that my dad wanted one for the next year. You will need to make a quilt approximately sixteen by nineteen inches. If the planned recipient has two recliners, be certain to make two.
five. A lovely table topper
Does anyone you know have those accent tables? Make them a table topper. Fab present. Just ensure that it matches the dcor of the room. You could also make a table runner with little cover blocks. Anyone would be proud to display such a nice table runner!

Vintage Barbie Swimsuit Pattern?
Does anyone know where to get a knit or other type of pattern for Barbie's original 1959 zebra striped swimsuit? I used to have a page bookmarked with it, but it seems to have went offline. I'm looking for the pattern in doll and human sizes. Thanks.
I've been looking for this pattern for a minute now too. I think people used to sell it on ebay, though I haven't seen it anywhere in a while. I would recommend trying to make the pattern yourself by looking at images of the suit or looking at it in person if you're lucky enough to have one (I have the repro from 93'). If I am able to recreate the pattern, I'll be sure to share it on my site. I have been sewing Barbie clothes for around 7 years now. Basic sewing knowledge would be use full either way, so i'd suggest brushing up on your running stitches if you don't sew regularly. Knitting the suit seems that it would be a basic project, it seems to be only one piece with only 4 points of machine stitching for shaping and to hold it together in the back and at the bottom. I however, am no knitter.
Good luck doll!
