Spotlight on Quilt Designer Katrina Thomas

I wanted to help raise funds to support The New York Mills Historical Society (my hometown), so for me that means “Quilt Raffle”! I chose a pattern by fellow Studio 180 Design Certified Instructor (CI) Katrina Thomas.  I met Katrina last March at our CI Reunion.  This girl is on fire when it comes to quilt designing.  Katrina is one of the features in Fons & Porter’s “Scrap Quilts” magazine for Summer 2015 on news stands now.

I lover her pattern called “Rolling Stars”.  Katrina is a very creative designer. Her patterns feature the use Studio 180 Design tools, which I love!  Check out Katrina’s website The Hope Chest Quilting to get her wonderful quilt patterns.

I chose Katrina’s pattern Lemoyne Baskets to make my raffle quilt.

I love Lemoyne Stars.  This pattern is a twist on this process using the Rapid Fire Lemoyne star Tool by Deb Tucker.  It also requires the Studio 180 Design Tech Sheet Lemoyne stars as Triangles.
