Why not Both?! • Small quilting projects are quick, fun, and make great last-minute gifts. But sometimes it can be hard to decide what the small quilt should become—a wall hanging or maybe a pillow cover? With this simple technique, you don't have to decide on one or the other; it can be both simultaneously! You or the recipient of your lovely gift can decide how to display it; it can be switched back and forth any time the mood strikes.

Zawadi Table Runner • Adorn your holiday table with a runner that's so simple, yet so stylish.

Ribbons and Bows • No need to wrap up this quilt; it's already tied with a bow!

Best Friend Puppy Coat • As we all know, dog breeds are incredibly varied. This pattern is for small- to medium-sized dogs (10–20 pound range), but with some clever adaptation, you could make it work for smaller or larger dogs. (Experimentation happening behind the scenes—stay tuned!)
