Another Zen Chic quilt has been featured

Earlier this year, you could read that one of my quilts, Cross It to be precise, was featured in Simply Moderne, a Quiltmania magazine.

I’m happy to announce that in the next issue of the popular magazine for modern quilts, another one of Zen Chic’s patterns is put in the spotlights.

Order a digital or paper copy of this issue #27 of Simply Moderne

Quiltmania is always showing the newest, fancy, and modern quilts in this series of the three they publish year-round. They often show a range of artistic, trendy quilts.

The Winter Issue of Simply Moderne

Zen Chic’s Prism Quilt

As I said earlier, the quilt that is in this issue is the Prism Quilt. It is sewn with the Quotation collection. An easy quilt to make using just 1 Layer Cake and textured background fabrics. And - BTW - the gorgeous quilting on Prism was done by Rachel Hauser of StitchedinColor.

In one of my YouTube tutorial videos, I show you how to make the Prism Quilt.
