BasicGrey recently announced that they are releasing quilt patterns to go with their beautiful fabric collections. The great team @ BG designed the quilts & I wrote the patterns. Yup... me! Long story short... I was a technical editor for a few pattern designers before starting Jaybird Quilts. I stopped doing it once I developed my own pattern company, but I couldn't say no when my friends at BasicGrey asked for my help.
The patterns have the famous Basic Grey aesthetic with the bonus of the writing quality you have come to know with Jaybird Quilts Patterns! Just like my Jaybird Quilts patterns they are printed in full color and they have size options!!
There are currently five patterns in the collection with a pillow pattern that you can download for free. Star Fall Pillow Pattern. There are also two patterns in the works for Blitzen, their holiday line due in shops in June. And more to come after that!!
If you are interested in purchasing these patterns you can find them in Local Quilt shops & online.
BasicGrey Online - Fat Quarter Shop
{If you are a shop interested in carrying the patterns you can get them through many distributors or Basic Grey directly. I will not be personally selling the patterns or handling any of the distribution.}
--
BasicGrey and I have collaborated before. They featured my Jawbreaker pillow in Hello Luscious in their booth at fall quilt market.
They also had a few of my Biscuit pincushions in their booth, and I featured one on the pattern cover.
I also have a new pattern in the works for quilt market using their next collection!
--
Hello Luscious is their fabric collection that is in stores now. They have designed 5 patterns to go with it!
The back of the patterns show all of the fabric requirements for the various sizes.
So today I'm going to offer up my set of the 5 brand new patterns to one of you!
*Note*
A large number of people have commented on giveaways recently without leaving their contact information. If you have your settings set to "no-reply" please leave your e-mail address in the comment or change your settings. Many have also said "pick me" and not answered the question. I like to keep giveaways as simple & fun as possible, but if you don't follow the rules you will not be eligible to win.

These all look great! My favorite is Hello Zig Zag! Thanks for the chance to win.
i love the sweet scarlett
Wow, I have always loved BG...it was my favorite SB paper brand and is now one of my favorite fabric designers! I love all of these patterns...they all look great, but maybe Sweet Starlet is the most scrumptious!
They are all beautiful, but Sunday Basket Brunch is my favorite.
I like the Sweet Starlet pattern based on what I can tell from the photos.
I love the Promenade pattern. So pretty.
I think the Happy Zig Zag is my favorite!
What is it about people having giveaways that makes them want to make you choose a favorite and then they offer up more eye candy then you could possibly even begin to know what to do with it. I love basic gray and have been a fan since I was a scrapbooker before I turned quilter. Did you know they make amazing paper products too. I'm so glad to see these patterns as they are simple and happy and yet just enough all at the same time. So I don't have a favorite but I guess if I was going to have to start somewhere it would be between Sweet Starlet and Promenade. Thanks for a chance to win.
I really love them all but if I have to pick a favorite it's Sweet Churn Dish.
I really love Promenade, great job Julie-they all look great!
Happy Churn Dash! It has a classic look in contemporary fabrics. Love it!
Oh my goodness - I LOVE them all!!! My absolute fave would have to be the Hello Zig Zag!!! So fun! Thanks so much for such a great giveaway Julie!!!
love Promenade, well all look very good to me.
Thank you for the opportunity

Hi
I love this collection and I especially fond of Promenade. All of your work is fantastic
I would choose "Hello Zigzag" It looks really scrappy and has a controlled chaos look about it. Love It!
Love all the patterns but my favourite is Sweet Starlet
Congratulations Julie! They all look lovely but my favourite is definitely Sunday Basket Brunch. Perfect combination of fabrics and design.
I love the Hello Zig Zag quilt. Love the large sized chevrons! Thanks
I would choose Sweet Starlet, I love them all, but it had to be one that has King size as an option and that one is the nicest King size.
I love them all and their fabric too. Promenade is my favorite one. Thanks for the give away!
Oooh, it's a tie. But Hello Zig Zag wins out. They all look like fun!
I love sweet starlet! But I really love them all, so beautiful and are great with the fabrics.
the zigzag quilt looks like one I want to make soon.
Its a tie between, Sunday Basket Brunch and Sweet Starlet. I think they're all so nice, very hard to pick just one. Someone's going to be very happy to win. Thanks for giving away your own personal copies. ;-> Toni Anne
Julie, I would have to start with Sweet Starlet and then dosido on over and do Promanade!!
Love the giveaway, your patterns are great!
sewterri@suddenlink.net
Oh, it is so hard to pick just one favorite! But, if forced, I would say Promenade is that one that calls the loudest to me.

Oh Jaybird written and Basic Grey fabrics is inspiring - my favourite is absolutely Sweet Starlet, sooooo cute!
It was hard to pick just one, but i think 'Sweet Starlet". I am cutting something out from my jelly roll of Hello Luscious right now! I love it!
Sweet Startlet, definitely. jannwebb@yahoo.com
For me it is a toss up between sweet starlet and hello zig zag. I think I would attempt the zig zag one first as it looks simpler to me
Ooo that is a hard one between Sweet Starlet and Hello Zigzag
Sweet Zig Zag Starlet? Hard to choose but guess Sweet Starlet! Thanks.
Zig Zag is on my to do list
Ooh, I think Sweet Starlet is my favorite!
I'm dreaming of sweet starlet in a king size
Hello Zig Zag,awesome!Thanks
