Halloween Pumpkin Table Mat - FREE download!

If you follow RPS on Facebook, Twitter, or Craftsy you may have seen or downloaded this freebie already... It's a quick, last minute sewing project for your Halloween festivities this weekend. I finished piecing and sewing in about 2 hours. Enjoy!

~Update, 11/21/14: Thanksgiving Pumpkin & Leaf Table Mat is now available!~
This is a quick and fun fusible applique project. The pattern includes an easy piecing technique for the leaves and full-color diagrams.

First Flower

So sweet to find the first flower of the season in our yard today! One little daffodil in a patch by itself, the others will be coming very soon. As spring begins to stir, this is the time of year to watch your dreams, wishes, and new projects start to grow :) 

New projects are on the horizon for me! I'm excited to announce that I am now creating quilt and craft sewing patterns for Connecting Threads, Designer Downloads.  I'll let you know when they are posted! Here is a sneak preview of my baby rosebud quilt for spring:

Also, I'm working on a new gift shop which will feature a wide range of my artwork, prints, and gifts with inspirational quotes, as well as printable designs for papers, invites and more. I plan to have craft patterns and some free downloads in the shop as well.  Stay tuned!! Update: The shop is finished! Visit www.robinphillipsstudio.com/store
