New life! Plants and animals are venturing forth from their winter homes and quiet times. On this vernal equinox, night and day are balanced. Eggs, bunnies, nests, seedlings, all are symbols of this new life and that day will now be longer than night. As the world comes back to life after a winter of dying off, we celebrate the day. It is time to plant, either in pots or in the ground if it is warm enough. Sow now what you hope to reap in the fall, and in life!
On this quilt are symbols of spring: Butterfly, sprite on a toadstool, pots with seedlings, nest with eggs, and a bunny along with the pentacle, tree in season, and Sabbat name.
This is a PATTERN for a 24” X 30” appliqué quilted wall hanging.
It is one of a series of eight (8) that represent each of the eight pagan Sabbats (Samhain, Yule, Imbolc, Ostara, Beltane, Litha, Lammas, and Mabon).
Due to the complexity of some of the shapes, it is recommended for intermediate quilters who have some experience in fusible applique.
Images for tracing are included for all applique shapes.
Also listed on each pattern are the yardage requirements for both the backgrounds and appliques as well as border, binding and backing for each quilt. Each of the Sabbat quilts is an original design and tested extensively.
The designs of each one include a pentacle, the name of the Sabbat, and a tree that changes on each quilt to reflect the appropriate season.
There is a discount for buying all eight of them. Please see separate listing.
