Designer Barb Sackel of Rose Cottage Quilting has introduced her fun, new line of garland patterns that are easy fast and fun! Here is what we love about Barb's new garland patterns.

1. They are no-sew patterns. We all love to sew. But sometimes creating something that doesn't require a machine, needle and thread is just downright fun. It's refreshing that these new garland patterns require few supplies and can be created fast.

2. They are great for novelty fabrics. OK, so you bought a yard of sports themed fabrics for that cool man-quilt you just finished and ended up using only a small amount of. These new garland patterns are perfect for using up novelty fabrics. Bust that fabric stash and make a cute, colorful banner.

3. There is one for (almost) every occasion and theme. Who doesn't love adding a decorative touch to special holiday gatherings and other occasions? These new garland patterns gives us the perfect opportunity to make something that will add to our occasions. Do you have an occasion in mind that you don't see here? We want to hear from you. Suggest a theme and if Barb ends up using it, she will send the pattern to you and we will promote on Facebook, Pinterest, Google+ and here on our blog. Imagine the bragging rights and freebie!

I like it that I can create one of these colorful garlands quickly and decorate with them in a trendy way. Not having to spend a ton on new supplies and still be able to stay on top of the garland trend is great!
