I love to share my passion for sewing and quilting with others!


I would love to have you join me weekly in the Linda Bratten Creations Facebook page to see what I am creating in my studio.  You can find me there, Thursday at 1 pm Central.



I created this pattern as a foundation paper pieced block designed after the traditional ocean wave block. This was a breeze to do using my Baby Lock Solaris.


Scalloped Calico Shell

Then I enhanced the block by creating machine applique designs of some of my favorite ocean finds!

Seaside Adventure Row Along-Vitamin Sea the Starfish Block

 I am so excited to be a part of the Seaside Adventure Row Along!  


Let me introduce myself to those not familiar with my work.   



I am Linda, the creative force behind Linda Bratten Creations where I design patterns, workbooks and make presentations.  

While I embrace art quiltingI began my quilting journey making traditional quilts.

This is a small segment of My Fantasy Garden quilt.



 I am a National Educator with Baby Lock where I get to share my love of the Baby Lock machines and their accessories with others.










Not only do I have my own free-motion quilting class, but I was also selected as one of their top eleven instructors in this fun class.


When I found out the theme of this year's Row Along I was very excited.  My favorite vacations have been taken on the beach.  Thus, I had plenty of inspiration to work with.


I gave a nod to my traditional roots by starting with an ocean wave block. 



 I re-designed it a bit to make it a foundation paper piecing block. 




Then I added a fun applique to the center.

It was great to work with the Northcott Fabrics from their Stonehenge Collection to create this great block!



I love the way my Baby Lock sewing machine created this smooth satin applique.


The offer for this free pattern has expired.  Be sure to subscribe to my blog to get the next free offer!

If you enjoy my pattern, be sure to sign up for my free monthly newsletter, Linda B Creative where I share fun projects and creative inspiration!


Also join me on Thursdays at 1 pm Central, in my Linda Bratten Creations Facebook page for my weekly Facebook Lives!

Quilt Block Mania-Summer Fun


Hello Summer Fun Quilters!
Vitamin Sea-Calico Scallop Block Mock Up


I am so excited to be a part of the #QuiltBlockMania today.  A special shout out to Carolina Moore of https://alwaysexpectmoore.com/ for organizing this great block hop. I am joining up with a great group of quilt pattern designers today to share with you a block that represents Summer Fun.


Coming from the Midwest, summer is hot and muggy.  So my fun memories are at the lake or even better, on the beach!



I adore going to the beach and finding treasures, thus my block is a memento of those precious times.  


I combined my traditional quilting roots and used an adaptation of the Ocean Waves pattern to create my block.  I designed it to be foundation paper pieced for accuracy, since bias edges can be a real challenge.


So here is my Vitamin Sea-Calico Scallop Shell in fabric!







The center portion is machine appliqued.  I love how my Baby Lock Crescendo stitches a beautiful satin stitch to create my Calico Scallop Shell.




Want to see how I put this block together?  Join the Linda B Creative Facebook group where I will be linking videos and going live to demonstrate how I create this block.



 Look for this post to join the Quilt Along!




Loving this block?  Would you like to use it in a wall hanging?
