Under the Sea Paper Pieced Patterns from Made By Marney

I designed my newest pattern with my Florida friends in mind. After spending a week with my sister in February in the Villages, Florida, and admiring all of her lovely sea turtle sculptures, I designed a paper pieced version. After adding a few more ideas, I designed this sea lovers dream.

The UNDER THE SEA pattern offers 12 paper pieced blocks with a nautical theme. Customers were requesting sea shell patterns, so of course I went all in and added fish, turtles, and even a lobster.

These are some of my faves!

Pig Day and Pig-Give-Away from Made By Marney

After reading Kathy’s Quilts cute post on “National Pig Day” on March 1(who ever knew?), I realized there must be many more people who have a pig obsession besides me!

Her pig pattern came from Kelli at Seriously I Think It Needs Stitches, where Kelli shares this Pig Block tutorial. This has motivated me to also have a PIG-GIVE-AWAY.

After reading Kathy’s blog about Pig Day, I started thinking about how many times I have created pig related patterns…

“PIG-CASSO”is one of 12 farm animals named after celebrities in the FARMYARD STARS pattern.

A “Trunk Full” of Love For You! from Made By Marney

I’m sharing some of my favorite patterns that have HEARTS for Valentine’s Day! Enjoy…

The ENOUGH ELEPHANTS pillow and lap quilt are both included in my pattern. These quirky elephants are so easy to paper piece.

This adorable LOAD OF LOVE dump truck would make a super cute pillow for your truck lovers! Those are buttons on the wheels for easy hubcaps. You know I like to keep things easy.

Great thanks to Carla from “Creatin’ in the Sticks” for all her work arranging today’s Winter Blues blog hop. Since blue has always been my favorite color, it is a joy to participate in this blog. Please don’t forget to leave a comment to participate in my Give Away.

If you are like me, you stave off those winter doldrums by sewing. Let’s start with 2 of the paper pieced CARDINAL BLOCKS from my CARDINAL TABLE RUNNER pattern.

Sew Sweet! from Made By Marney

Some super sweet customers have been sharing photos of adorable projects they have created using my paper piece patterns. I LOVE to see their fun creations.

Bella is a first time paper piecer. She entered her CORGI quilt in her 4H competition and won first place. I love how she repeated the dog blocks in an Andy Warhol Pop Art inspired composition.

Sharon created this awesome neutral colored Dog and Cat quilt. She has incorporated blocks not only from me, but from lots of designers. This makes the quilt very interesting, since it’s ...

More Cute Critters from Made By Marney

I’ve had some requests for more paper pieced woodland animals and you know how much I love designing animals!

I love this goofy weasel. He would work great with my other CUTE CRITTERS.

Here is a BADGER that I designed for my friend Wendy.

And this BADGER FACE has more detail and could be used by my fellow Wisconsin Bucky Badger fans.

I used this BADGER FACE for a TOTE BAG. The pattern to sew this tote can be found in my CUTE AND CLEVER TOTES book.

Thanks to my fun customers ...

HAY GIRL from Made By Marney

I am so excited to show you my sweet horse quilt. HAY GIRL was designed with the horse lover in mind.

These 11 ponies are adorbs! I’m trying to choose my faves, but I keep changing my mind.

These are my top 3 picks…how about you? I’m not sure what was more fun…designing these beauties or naming them! My friends helped with the names…

My daughter, Jesi, was an avid horse rider in her youth. I’m sure she will love this lap quilt for her couch.
