NEW PATTERNS COMING SOON!

Here is a sneak peek of three of our new patterns that will be introduced at Quilt Market this spring....

"Yellow Warbler" was designed by Brenda Yirsa. We're still working on adding borders.....


"Autumn Lady" is based on artwork by Carl Brenders.



"Trophy" is based on artwork by Al Agnew.
None of these patterns are ready yet, but I couldn't wait to show you! Patterns should be ready by the beginning of March, and fabric is on order for kits.

NEW PATTERNS FOR FALL QUILT MARKET!!

Spirit by Toni Whitney






Well, I have been away from blogging for awhile....just a bit too much on my plate with the mystery quilt and our move.... Thanks for sticking with us...I'm back in the saddle again!

These are our newest patterns, the ones we will be introducing at Quilt Market in Houston next month. (I have included the eagle, Spirit, which was released between spring and fall quilt markets.) I know that many of you have had sneak previews of these quilts in various stages of completion, but here they are...done! The patterns are being printed, the fabric kits are being cut, we are VERY CLOSE to being able to ship! There are some fabric issues; we are awaiting some key fabrics that may not arrive until mid October. But we are taking preorders now, so if you are interested, hop on to our website for pricing info, www.bigforkbaycottonco.com ....you can order either online or give us a call at 406-837-2399 or 866-245-5718!

If any of you are going to Quilt Market or Quilt Festival next month, please stop by our booth, #662 to say hi! and to view these quilts in person!

BRENDA'S LATEST


Here are the newest designs from Brenda Yirsa. I just don't know how she does it! She is an amazing artist.

These, like the Tribal Beauties, won't be ready for several months. I know it is frustrating to wait so long, but these things take time! David, our graphic designer, really can't work any harder! And the proofing and testing process is tedious, but very important, as we want to do all we can to insure that you don't have any problems with the patterns when you are working on your own quilts.

By the way, it is important for you to know that we have a special area on our website devoted to pattern corrections. Simply click on the "customer service" button, and at the top you will see "pattern corrections". Click there to see if there are any corrections you need to know about. We have a policy of printing our patterns in relatively small batches. That way, if any corrections need to be made, we make them immediately, and don't have thousands of incorrect patterns floating around. However, we have no way of knowing when a particular pattern was printed, or how long it may have hung in a shop before it was sold. So it's a good idea to check and see if there are any pattern corrections before you begin your design!

POINTSETTIA QUILT BY BRENDA YIRSA


We're so excited! We recently received this amazing quilt from Brenda Yirsa! David is working on the pattern, but it's not quite ready..... I couldn't wait to show you. It will probably still be a few weeks before we are ready to take orders.....
