Inspired by the fun “Daisy Dots” fabric collection Jacqueline designed for Anthology Fabrics, she designed this beautiful table runner. The stylized flowers are paper pieced and the leaves are appliqued on top with a simple blanket stitch. Jacqueline finished the table runner with the white center first and, at Anthology's request, made another one with the beautiful floral fabric in the center. It's up to you to choose which one you like best. Quilted by Anne Lilliholm |

What sparkling colors in this beautiful flower quilt. And just like 'In Full Bloom' from last year, also made in the 24 colors of the Rainbow collection. You can hardly imagine it. This design takes you outside, to summer, to your garden. You might even get a vacation feeling when you look at this. We do get very happy when we look at this quilt and we hope it evokes the same feeling in you. Quilted by Stacie Spradlin from Seams Divine |
In Full Bloom |

Level of difficulty: 4**** | Finished size: 49” x 49” | Foundation papers available: Yes | Technique: Assembling and Appliqué
|

You will fall in love with this beauty. "In Full Bloom" is one of our favorites for this year. She has a stunning center and the spectacular border is breathtaking, the flower petals in the border are appliquéd and the little flower hearts are made with fabric buttons which gives this beauty a spectacular 3D effect. Lynda Jackson worked her magic on the fabulous quilt work in Bloom |
Unlike all our other patterns, this is a very special design. In fact, it is not a paper piece design but a design that takes you by the hand to assemble this quilt step by step. What is nice to know is that there is a lot of appliqué work in it, namely all the little flowers that are in the beautiful border that surround the cheerful summer flower. And once you have made the petals, you can choose to complete the hearts of the flowers with a fabric button. That really gives a very special 3D effect for the WOW factor

In every collection in recent years we always try to make 2 designs in our favorite rainbow collection.

"Color Dance" speaks for itself with the dancing movements and the amazing flowing curves that surround her.

Every year we choose a beautiful 'old' design to put in the spotlights again. This year we have chosen for "Bloomingtale", a beautiful design that is already made in different color variations but never in the beautiful vivid colors of the Rainbow Collection. The result is really beautiful. The bright colors bring the design to life and is a dream for every quilter. It's a 5 star design so if you like a challenge it's worth it! Lynda Jackson of Capricorn Quilting (Sheffield, UK) has also beautifully quilted this design. |
Amazing Grey
Level of difficulty: 5***** | Finished size: 71” x 71” | Foundation papers available: Yes | Technique: paper piecing
|
|
I guess it's no surprise how we got the name for "Amazing Grey". Jacqueline was working on the design of this quilt and found that black as background fabric did not really fit this design. And more white would be too much. So why not grey? That turned out to be a bull's-eye. The grey complemented the Rainbow colours beautifully and gave this design a very special look. And it's something completely different ;) To quilt this design Jacqueline asked Becky Andreasen who quilted this quilt in a really beautiful way. |
Luminosity

Nine Lone Stars, sixteen beautiful corner parts, and Jacqueline's black and white signature fabric in this breathtaking new design. The quilt is finished with the gorgeous striped sashing. There are many ways to design a Lone Star and Jacqueline decided to do it like this. The stunning colors of the rainbow collection are perfect for this beauty. And have you noticed the beautiful quilt work by Cindy Glancy? It's gorgeous! I love the way she added the feathers all around this quilt. |
Dazzling Diamonds

A trip to Bali inspired Jacqueline to design this fabulous quilt. In the amazing quilt Jacqueline uses her favorite Rainbow collection with a little more pizazz from some additional colors. The result is breathtaking.
The traditional Lone Star is the heart of this design complimented with a circle of spikes in the same colors. Topped with Lone Star points in the beautiful rainbow colors this quilts needs nothing more than a vibrant border of brilliant spikes. Cindy Glancy, a very talented long arm quilter, took care of the quilting which is absolutely gorgeous. |

In the pattern you'll find both of the sets: Picnic, in the beautiful rainbow colors and Lemonade, a lovely set of placemats and table runner with a Summer feel.

It was Jacqueline's wish to design a quilt with lots of flying geese.
The gorgeous center star is one of her favorites and with that she started. The first flying geese circle was quickly made and the pretty small stars were a perfect size to fit precisely between the two flying geese circles. White batik for the inner circle and black for the outside and the borders. The beautiful corner parts as finishing touches complimented by her black-and-white signature fabrics completes this fabulous design. Cindy Glancy has worked her magic with the stunning quilting. |

Here is WOW, a.k.a. Black Magic. A stunning design in the fabulous Rainbow Colors.
Breathtaking beautiful with eight magical stars around the spectacular designed center piece. The center star is just phenomenal. A brand new designed star folded like origami.

In 2013 Jacqueline won the first place pieced in the Hoffman Challenge with the stunning design "Celtic Fantasy"
Since then, Jacqueline received lot of requests for that design. And after all those years, this design is still very popular. We had her discontinued, but there were so many requests to print her again, we couldn't resist. So she's back! My dear friend Cheryl Harris took care of the binding of this beautiful design.

We know you love "Circle of Life", but we also know that "Circle of Life" could be a challenge.. maybe just one step too far for you at this moment.
I designed this small wall hanging for you, just to try something different. If you follow the step by step and the paint by number instructions you will see how fast and beautiful your "Bright Star" will be. I'll show you this beautiful small wall hanging in two different background colors. The black version is my favorite but I love the stunning white "Bright Star" as well, because you can see how beautiful the quilting shows up in that gorgeous white fabric…. Hmm, what would you choose? |
Midnight Stars
Level of difficulty: 5***** | Finished size 64” x 64” | Foundation papers available: Yes | Technique: paper piecing
|
|
Midnight Stars, formerly Surprisingly Red;
Surprisingly Red is one of the patterns that is on the market since the start of BeColourful. We have made this quilt in first instance in light blue pastels, rose fabrics and warm reds and they are brought together in perfect harmony in this stunning quilt pattern. We decided that…. as this design is so attractive and appealing to a lot of quilters, to re-draw and re-write the entire pattern to live up to your expectations. We also add a beautiful circle with flying geese to it and even the quilt is made again with the 24 colors embedded in black. |
Endless..
Level of difficulty: 3 *** | Finished size 59” x 59” | Foundation papers available: Yes | Technique: paper piecing
|
|
Are you in for something different?
I choose 16 of my 24 favorite batiks and add 8 different black fabrics to it. You start on the outside with the flying geese borders and go in to the quilt to make the spiked circle around the beautiful center star. After that you make all the other stars which are sparkling in the flying geese circles. We finish this gorgeous design with a spiked border. |
Stars of Light |
|
Level of difficulty: 4**** | Finished size 75" x 75" | Foundation Papers available: Yes | Technique: paper piecing
|
|
Stars of Light is the substitute for "Stars in the Night" Years ago I have made "Stars in the Night". I decided to turn this old pattern into a brand new design. I have not only used black as main background but I also use a black fabric with a tiny silver star and of course my black and white strip. But the most important change is the white background fabric in the center part and around the stars. That is why "Stars in the Night" turned into "Stars of Light". |
|
If you take a close look to "Stars of Light" and "Wheel of Fortune" you recognize the star circles and the piano border parts. And indeed it is almost the same pattern and the same size. I have made two different versions of this beautiful pattern. That is also the reason why you find one quilt and two different centers in the pattern. You have two opportunities in the pattern and you can decide which quilt you want to make: "Wheel of Fortune" or "Stars of Light". That’s why you find two covers, two backsides, two fabric descriptions and two booklets in the pattern.
In "Stars of Light" I have used my favorite star: the Lone Star. But because this quilt is so nice I also have made another star in the same background pattern parts, I know not everybody love black and with these two different versions you can make your own stunning BeColourful quilt. |
