Toni Steeres and Jenny Holt are partners in Wing and a Prayer Design and create fabric collections for Timeless Treasures.  During our August program, we were treated to a beautiful array of quilts, fabrics, digital designs, and more. With a production time of 6-9 months, these women are not only working to get the next season's fabric designs created in collaboration with the graphic artists at Timeless Treasures, but also making quilts, kits, and running an online retail business.  These gals have energy plus, though, and are successfully doing it all. Their philosophy is, "If we wouldn't hang it in our own home, we wouldn't design it."

Toni and Jenny shared quilts from several of their fabric and pattern lines. Check out the gallery to view a few of the many quilts from their "quilt turning" trunk show.

-The Good News quilt is a reflection of Toni and Jenn's journey in establishing their business. you will find references to this progression in the fabric and digital text of this quilt.

-Stormy Sea reflects the movement of the sea while at the same time staying on course with the Mariner's Compass in the center.

-Mayfair was shown as a king-sized quilt and as a large thrown with applique' elements rather than piecing on segments of the border.

-The digitized text elements in the London Blue quilt are a celebration of friendship.

-Friendship is also the theme in the Connected By Heart quilt with Mayfair coordinating fabrics. 

-Stitched Friendship in softer shades from the Birds of a Feather collection pairs piecing with hand embroidery.  The detail is much prettier up close.

-Growing Grace from the Victory Garden collection of fabrics incorporates patriotic text from the digital panel.

More Gallery Descriptions:

-Look closely. Twelve fabrics are used in making this king-sized quilt Fantasy!

-The Fantasy Stars quilt is designed with an offset focal point and a bargello-like gradation.

-Jenn is sharing "Do Small Things With Great Love."

-Here in Manhattan, we love purple, so coordinating shades from the Chateau collection create a gorgeous quilt.

-"Behind Every Creative Woman" is a phrase that you can complete for yourself, but one in which Tori and Jenn celebrate women.

-The last two quilts in the gallery celebrate those who work the land, aptly named for the panels from which they draw their texts: Farmer's Prayer 1 and Farmer's Prayer 2.

Lastly, they offer a free downloadable pattern on the Wing and a Prayer website that is shown in their Tonga Paradise Treat collection. Waves of Paradise looks like a fun, eye-catching, jelly roll friendly pattern. Let's get started!
