The Stitch TV Pattern Selection (Belinda)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

As you know, I am not a big fan of patterns. Patterns weren’t available in large numbers, if at all, when I learned to make quilts and I never really learned to use them. Yes, of course, there were quilt patterns in magazines, but the packaged stand-alone quilt patterns were not available back in the dark ages.<\/p>\n

I do admire the possibility of small business owners creating patterns and making them available. That there are so many indie \/ women-owned businesses is one of the great things about the quilt industry.<\/p>\n

The StitchTV<\/a> company, Ed & Eddie LLC, is one of those small businesses. One of the things I noticed about the Stitch TV pattern samples were the different fabrics used. In the photo above, you can see at least 4 different fabric groups. While this grouping does not comprise all the possible fabric combinations, it does give the shopper a good idea of how the design will look in different fabrics.<\/p>\n

There are so many patterns now. All of us have a quilt ‘to do’ list that extends beyond our lifetime, so we have to be more choosy about adding new things to the list. Marketing patterns with a variety of samples is imperative now.<\/p>\n
