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!

These all look great! My favorite is Hello Zig Zag! Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeletei love the sweet scarlett
ReplyDeleteWow, 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!
ReplyDeleteThey are all beautiful, but Sunday Basket Brunch is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteI like the Sweet Starlet pattern based on what I can tell from the photos.
ReplyDeleteI love the Promenade pattern. So pretty.
ReplyDeleteI think the Happy Zig Zag is my favorite!
ReplyDeleteWhat 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.
ReplyDeleteI really love them all but if I have to pick a favorite it's Sweet Churn Dish.
ReplyDeleteI really love Promenade, great job Julie-they all look great!
ReplyDeleteHappy Churn Dash! It has a classic look in contemporary fabrics. Love it!
ReplyDeleteOh 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!!!
