Quilting superstar Denyse Schmidt has just released a beautiful new line of fabric called County Fair, featuring the prints you've come to love printed in fresh new colorways on upholstery-weight cotton canvas. There's also a "cheater print" called Patchwork Promenade, which looks like one of Denyse's signature quilt blocks--only it's printed! County Fair will be available in retail stores and online in June 2008.

Oh, Fransson! shows you how to create a crazy nine-patch quilt block. She used this method to make a stunning giraffe-themed quilt, and I love the confetti-like colors used in her tutorial as well.

Elaine Krajenke Ellison, a retired high school math teacher, makes these extraordinary quilts highlighting mathematical patterns. From her site:

I encourage the future teachers to try using quilts in their classroom. Quilts serve as a visual introduction to mathematical concepts that allows students to explore mathematics as they gain geometric insights. My quilts will engage the viewer in mathematical visualization, helping to further the role of problem solving.

Make and Takes stitched up a pair of these fun "I Spy" mini-quilts for her kids. Each quilt features 30 quilt squares, two in each fabric pattern for playtime fun. I love the idea of a snuggly, portable quilt that's also a game. I Spy Mini-Quilts

First off, she found an Urkel doll on eBay and made a whole new outfit for him so he'd look like the show's infectiously fun host, DJ Lance Rock!

Of course, she couldn't leave Lance to be lonely all on his own--so here's the entire cast of characters done up in cozy flannels.

Last but not least, she created this adorable flannel quilt featuring the cast of characters and colorful primary-colored quilt blocks. OK, the votes are in...Artsy Fartsy~ is the best Grandma EVER! Link.

Erika from My Imaginary Boyfriend just stitched up this geeky-chic Dr. Who quilt, complete with a binding covered in Tardises and Daleks!

Artist Lisa Congdon created a lovely log-cabin quilt square which was used to illustrate the cover of a diary. The description says it's meant for ages 4+, but I think crafters of all ages would enjoy a sweet-looking book like this. Link.

Flickr user Stitchindye turned a colorful IKEA duvet cover into a baby quilt, adding stitching around each number, which makes the whole thing appear to be appliquéd. She used the same fabric and technique to make a bag as well (which you can buy via Etsy here). Simple but effective! Link.

Wee Wonderfuls started off thinking she'd make a super-involved gingerbread house-inspired quilt, and ended up with this simple (and dare I say, even cuter) graphic gumdrop quilt. The sparkly "sugar" crystals on the gumdrops are actually pearly snaps! Link.
