Welcome to Busy Bee Quilt Designs

New! I've recreated a few of my quilt and accessory patterns in updated fabrics. Look for Stairway to Fortune (shown at right) and Hip to Be Square Bag to see the new looks. Brand new Busy Bee kits are Summer Vineyard, a Slice 'n Dice quilt; Batik Stairway to Fortune and Dessert in Paris, a Soho table runner. In each kit, you'll find gorgeous, high-quality fabrics that I've carefully selected, plus an easy pattern to ensure your success! Visit the Kits page to see more.

My love of quilting began when I was a little girl. I remember spending hours looking at quilts created by my grandmothers and aunties, choosing my favorite bits of fabric, and looking for the pieces that came from dresses worn by my mother in her childhood.

Fabric has always been my passion, promising both beauty and utility when used in creative ways. Over the years I have had fun collecting vintage fabric, as well as designing and sewing for my family and friends.

Now I am pleased to offer my favorite quilt and accessory patterns to you. They feature an updated twist on classic style. Each pattern is complete with step by step instructions, fabric requirements, a full color photo and schematic illustrations.

I hope you find inspiration in these patterns and enjoy creating your own treasures.
