Had to Be You Pattern Release / Beauties Pageant 319

I’m pleased to announce that Had to Be You is available for your seasonal sewing! This pattern comes in four sizes, from child to queen, and is the perfect venue to showcase your stash or scraps.

I do consider this design a Valentine, perfect for gifting. I imagine sewing it up for a family member or friend, although (ahem!) I made this one for myself.  

My favorite part of this pattern is that there are two block designs. In some blocks, the hearts are arranged from big to small. In others, they’re arranged from small to big. The discrepancy is subtle, but the result is undeniable: The two-block layout produces a satisfying sense of movement! 

You can pick up the Had to Be You PDF at a discount—$10—through the weekend. After that, it will be available at the full $13 price tag. 

Printed copies are forthcoming (after I take a tiny vacation). Wholesale orders are open now—email me at frombolttobeauty [at] gmail [dot] com for more information.
