"I much prefer written instructions because when I see a lovely pattern I may not be able to start the project immediately and it is easier to file the written instructions away in my organized pattern binders so that I can retrieve when needed."

"I have used freezer paper applique for several years. It is easy fun I have tried reverse applique a few times but am not sure if I like it!"

"Carolina, I am enjoying the monthly block challenge. I am not new to quilting, and I think it would be a great idea if you looked at how Pat Sloan makes half square triangles and how Missouri Star Quilt Tutorials do their flying geese. I am wasting fabric based on the way some of your blocks are being made."

Nothing says fun like a farm! They're filled with plenty of interesting animals, activities, and beautiful natural landscapes. You can have all of the best parts of farm life without having to take a trip with the new Free Range Fabric Collection from Monaluna. Kids and adults alike won't be able to contain their excitement once they see your latest quilts and small projects made with colorful fabric full of cute characters and energetic patterns.

There's no quilter that will find themselves unsatisfied with the Free Range collection. Each of these patterns is 100% organic cotton and pops with vibrant colors that make them suitable for a number of projects. You can mix and match the simple polka dot prints with designs with foxes, sheep, and more! These neat and symmetrical designs can be easily made into patchwork, wearables, and of course, plenty of vibrant quilt patterns.

If you're looking for something simple, try "Polka Ott" in black or red. Their colors complement the rest of the fabrics within the collection, but they'll also make excellent material for borders, sashing, and as part of quilt patterns with fabrics from other collections. They've got a bit of a retro flair, with the different sizes of the circles adding a bit more of a quirky flair.

On the other hand, quilters looking for the most outright farm-friendly patterns should definitely take a look at the loveable animals in "Bah Bah Black Sheep", "Cluck Cluck", and "Foxy Returns" (my personal favorite). Any of them would make wonderful kid's quilts; the patterns are consistent, so cutting won't be a problem, and the designs are colorful and bright, which little ones just can't say no to. Something like the "Apple Barn Cow" pattern can even be a learning tool, as it includes written words to go along with the pictures.

You won't be able to find a line of such impressive quality that's still so charming anywhere.
