Hi friends,

We’re thrilled to offer three Patricia Cox patterns on our website—available for a limited time and in limited quantities. If you love heirloom appliqué with authentic 19th-century style, these are keepers. Patricia is a prolific quilter, teacher, designer, lecturer and writer. Many of her designs have appeared in various quilt magazines. She has been drawing quilt patterns, principally applique ones, for over 35 years.

1. Homage to Mary Brown — 100" x 100"
   Patricia’s full-size adaptation of Mary Brown’s extraordinary 1851 quilt (East Nottingham, Maryland). A joyful parade of florals, birds, animals, and borders—an heirloom project with full-size patterns, layout guide, quilting lines, and a detailed cut list.
   

2. Of Wine and Roses — 84" x 100" 
   A romantic botanical tapestry: cascading grapevines, lush roses, graceful birds, and elegant corner treatments. Includes full-size appliqué patterns and quilting lines with needle-turn guidance (use your favorite method). Sample quilt below was made by Jean Vick of Northfield, MN as a wedding present for a friend.
   

3. Mary Brown Wall Hanging — 37" square
   Four whimsical blocks inspired by the 1851 original—think chipper squirrel, happy pup, bright birds, berries, and blossoms. A perfect “taste” of the larger quilt and a beautiful seasonal wall piece.
   

A Note from Jody Gavin
"I'm excited to let you know that Patricia Cox’s beautiful designs are continuing on under a new name—Pencil to Needle. With Pat’s full support, I’ve taken the helm to keep her beloved patterns available and to create new ones inspired by her legacy. Sign up for my newsletter for updated information in the coming months."
