Today I am happy to introduce our new series of Pint Size Patterns! These economical little patterns are thanks to your persistent question, “Do you have a pattern for that?” Now I can say, “YES, YES, YES!”
All instructions are easy and clear enough for beginning stitchers, but also entertaining enough for accomplished ones. The projects are classic and can be made again and again. I have made at least 30 pillowcases in the past year and as many napkins and contrasting napkin rings and plan to make more as Christmas gifts.
Pint Size Patterns are perfect for using new personality prints, like Sunshine and Shadow, but they are also great “stash busters” to use up that wonderful fabric on your shelf. In fact, that would make an inspiring gift for the young crafter… a pattern, a stack of fabulous fabric and some basic sewing supplies.
Like me, many of you have also made the “homemade pledge” for gift giving this year, and not only for your pocket book. There is nothing as special as a personalized gift made with loving hands and hearts.
So this is my gift to all crafters, an easy way to begin the “merry making” for a creative holiday season. In the next few weeks I will show more examples of each Pint Size Pattern made in a variety of moods and fabrics, so stay tuned.

Oh, Jane — thank you, thank you! I can’t wait to order some of these! Just in time for the holidays, too — great timing!

I am delighted to see your Pint Size Patterns, particularly the cowl scarf.
I just ordered it for myself, and three other patterns to give as gifts.
