It’s time for a pattern release! Whoohooooo!
There’s so much going on behind the scenes here, that a public pattern release always feels like such a massive event. I’m so excited to finally share my newest pattern from the Shorthand Collection with you today: Trellis Twist.

Quilters have to be on their game if they want their projects to be finished in time for all the seasons, holidays, and merriment!

Now, if you’re using gorgeous gradient or ombre fabrics (like what I’m using from Jennifer Sampou’s collection, Sky) there’s a few tips and tricks that I have for you before you get started (see my post on how to work with gradients here). If you’re just going with prints or solids, you don’t have to worry about much!
