Butterfield Books Quilt Patterns – to Commemorate and Preserve the Past

Because my Trail of Thread book series talks about twelve old-time patterns in each book, it was a natural progession to have quilt patterns made to feature them.

 Many quilters are also readers of history, and are fascinated with seeing the sketches of the quilt patterns in the back of my books.

So here are my Frontier Spirits “Pieces of the West” Quilt Patterns to commemorate the pioneer women that homesteaded the western prairie in my book series. Just as in pioneer days, quilts today allow us to express and preserve our feelings and emotions. This is a way to tie and honor the past quilts and quilt makers with them through my quilt patterns.

Included in these patterns are instructions for both the featured wall quilt, and for a full-sized quilt. A fabric and supply list is included in what you need to complete the item. The patterns include “The Inside Story”, which describes each block’s origin, and why it was selected.  

Patterns available for quilt shops and wholesalers

Please contact me direct to buy my quilt patterns and books for resale, and to ask permission to use them in “Block of the Month” clubs.
