Pattern of the Month May 2013: Spools

It's time again for a new Pattern of the Month! Debbie Taylor is here today to tell you a little bit about our May 2013 Pattern of the Month, Spools by Thimble Blossoms! And don't forget, the Pattern of the Month is 20% off all month!


I have a collection of “vintage” spools of thread in my sewing room, all on wooden spools, displayed in a large glass container. When I first saw the Spools Quilt Pattern, I knew that I had to make it for my sewing room.

My idea is to use strips of my most favorite fabric in the spools. I’m imagining an overstuffed chair, pretty floor lamp with soft light, small side table, me in the chair, this quilt over me, planning my next quilt! I’m so there!

We love the Marmalade version of this quilt, but it will look great in almost anything. Last year, Thelma of Cupcakes 'n Daisies hosted a Parade of Spools and the quilts are simply gorgeous. What collection will you use to make your own Spools?
