Juice Pops Quilt in Kona Solids

Today I'm sharing a Juice Pops quilt that I made using two packs of 5" squares from the Kona solids Wildberry palette.

This quilt was one of those projects that just kept getting put on the back burner. I started it in February with every intention of finishing it in time to use this summer but then you know....other projects came along (hello distractions!) and I kept putting this one to the side. 

I finally finished it up in July and was able to get some photos of it recently.

Little Loves Quilt

Hello friends - today I'm sharing a quick little project I stitched up last week. It's a new free quilt pattern from The Fat Quarter Shop called Little Loves.

It's just four quilt blocks plus a pieced top and bottom border so I was able to get the top sewn up in just one day.

For the fabrics I chose a few prints from the Laguna Sunrise fabric line. 

Laguna Sunrise was designed by Sherri & Chelsi for Moda Fabrics. The full line includes some other colors - purples, greens, and coral to name a few. But I chose just the reds and this delightful, minty aqua color to use in my quilt. And I love how they look together!

Skipper Quilt Pattern Updated

Lately I've been working on updating one of my older patterns, and I'm happy to be able to share the new Skipper pattern with you today

Skipper quilt pattern by Andy Knowlton of A Bright Corner - a modern star quilt pattern that uses precuts and has four sizes

The Skipper pattern was first released back in 2017 as a fat quarter pattern with a unique star block. 

This fun Skipper star block came to be when I was playing around with my Division pattern and wanted to take some of those elements and apply them to a star block....and Skipper was born.

A New Fast Track quilt in Batik Fabrics

Did you know that Riley Blake Designs now offers batik fabrics? I don't sew a lot with batiks - in fact I think I've only made one quilt so far that included batik fabrics (so this one is now #2!)

But recently the kind folks at Riley Blake Designs sent me a 10" stacker from their Express Yourself Ombre line and I used it to make this throw sized Fast Track quilt.

At first I was a little intimidated about sewing with a new type of fabric but the only change I made was to swap out my regular sewing machine needle for a Schmetz Microtex sharp one (I use these). And I found that I liked that one better for my regular quilting fabrics as well so I left it in and it's now my preferred needle.  

Batik fabrics press so beautifully! I love how crisp the pressed block is. And these jewel toned colors are so vibrant and lovely together.

Juice Pops quilt pattern

Introducing the Juice Pops pattern! Juice Pops is a precut friendly quilt pattern that brings those Summertime vibes with fun and easy popsicle quilt blocks.

The Juice Pops quilt first appeared in Quilter's World magazine and was designed to be a charm pack quilt. But ever since then I've been really wanting to add more size options and more fabric options to the pattern and offer it in my shop.


The pattern now has FIVE sizes and five fabric options, and uses quick strip piecing for the popsicle handles to help speed up block construction.

Plot Twist Crib Quilt

 Hello friends

Today I'm sharing a sweet little crib sized version of the Plot Twist quilt pattern.

The crib size of the Plot Twist pattern is perfect for using one pack of precut 10" squares (like a Layer Cake or 10" Stacker). 

That's what I used for this quilt, and it was super handy because some of the cutting was already done for me!

Mod Mugs the Ombre Version

 Today I'm sharing a version of the Mod Mugs quilt pattern. I used Ombre Flurries fabrics, and I love the frosty, wintery vibe of the finished quilt.

Mod Mugs quilt pattern in Ombre Flurries fabrics by A Bright Corner

Mod Mugs is a fun and modern mug quilt that is traditionally pieced (no templates or paper piecing needed). The mugs are large enough to let some of the color variations of the ombre prints shine through. 

You could also do some fussy cutting for each mug, or use your favorite medium or large scale prints. I shared a Christmas version of Mod Mugs here.

Prime Time Baby Size Quilt

Hello everyone! Today I am sharing a baby quilt that I finished up a couple months ago, but realized that I hadn't shared it here yet! This is the baby sized Prime Time quilt made with Berry Basket fabrics. 

Prime Time baby size quilt - pattern by Andy Knowlton of A Bright Corner

I made this using the leftover pieces of fabric from another project - which always feels so good to do!

A few months ago, I had just finished up making a quilt for a magazine (which I'll share soon) and I loved these fabrics so much I didn't want to just add them to my scrap bins. I realized that with some.... creative cutting I could squeeze a baby quilt out of the leftovers. Don't you love when that happens?

Cheer Up Quilt Christmas Version

Today I'm sharing a Christmas version of my Cheer Up quilt pattern. I started this quilt as a sample for my Garden of Quilts class that I taught this year, and was happy to have a good excuse to get it done in time for Christmas!

For this Christmas version of Cheer Up, I started with a few prints from the Good News Great Joy fabric line (by Fancy That Design House / Moda), and then I wandered around one of my local quilt shops to gather a few more that coordinated. The last few prints were added from my stash. And I'm really happy with the final combination!

The Mod Mugs Quilt Pattern

Introducing the Mod Mugs quilt pattern - a precut friendly quilt pattern with four size options. I love this cozy, wintery version sewn up in Winterglow fabrics by Ruby Star Society.

Mod Mugs is a modern and fun, traditionally pieced pattern - meaning there's no paper piecing or templates needed - just basic piecing skills. 

I wanted to create a no-fuss Mug quilt that could be customized with different fabrics and optional whip cream topping. I kept the size of the mugs big enough so you could show off your favorite medium and large scale prints. Or fussy cut some favorites too!

Prime Time Quilt Pattern

 I'd like to introduce you to the Prime Time quilt pattern! It's a fun, precut friendly pattern with two block options included.

Prime Time quilt pattern by Andy Knowlton of A Bright Corner quilt blog

Prime Time is a great way to use Layer Cake squares, but you also have the option of using Charm squares, Fat Quarters, or yardage. And it works with any fabric - florals, geometrics, batiks and even solids. It's really versatile! It would even make a fun I-Spy style quilt with fussy cut fabrics in each block.

Mabon Fabric Make Believe Quilt

Today I'm sharing a throw size version of the Make Believe quilt pattern that I stitched up earlier this year. Make Believe is a fun and modern quilt pattern that's perfect for using precut 10" squares (layer cake squares.)


For this version of Make Believe I used a fabric line called Mabon, designed by Shelley Cavanna for Contempo fabrics by Benartex. I love the bold, saturated colors that Shelley does so well in all of her lines
