Songbird Blog Hop and Pattern Release

by | Aug 13, 2026 | 17 comments

Welcome to my day to celebrate Jennifer Thomas of Curlicue Designs’ signature collection, Songbird, designed by Jerry Khiev for Island Batik! This is a beautiful collection, with birds, flowers, and swirly vines, and the colors are wonderful. I hope you have visited the other bloggers this week to see what they have designed with this collection. Stay tuned for the giveaway info from Jennifer. But now, I will share my project with you!

This is the Island Batik catalog quilt made with these beautiful fabrics, and a new pattern I designed for this collection, Dancing Shadows, which can be purchased HERE as a download. Click the photo to be able to see the entire quilt. It is precut friendly. I used a 2-1/2″ strip pack for this quilt, along with some yardage.

I quilted this one using my ProStitcher with a beautiful motif by Karlee Porter called Sitara Marble.

In case you missed my post on Monday, here is the schedule for the Songbird Blog Hop.

In conjunction with the Songbird blog hop, Jennifer is giving away a complete 20 piece fat quarter bundle of Songbird, along with a print copy of one of her new patterns (winner’s choice).  To enter, please sign up for her newsletter on her website, or follow her on Facebook or Instagram.  You will receive one entry for each.  Please comment how you follow her in your entry and let her know which pattern you would like to receive if you are selected as the lucky one.  Open to USA residents only, due to shipping costs.  Please be sure to leave a way to contact you as well.

Good luck in the giveaway!! Until next time…

    That is a great design and looks so pretty in those fabrics. The borders around the rail fence blocks really dress them up.

    You showcased those prints in your quilt so wonderfully. Love how warm and cozy it feels. A beautiful name too.

    Dancing Shadows makes me think of stacked books on a bookshelf. Congratulations on the release (and check the link to your pattern, it currently isn’t linking to the pattern)!!
