Sue Garman quilt patterns often make use of appliqu?Applique is a sewing technique in which a design is stitched on top of another piece of fabric, usually using an appliqu?titch, blanket stitch, zig zag or satin stitch. Garman says that appliqu?s her favorite technique, but she also likes intricate piece quilting.

One of the Sue Garman quilt patterns that immediately comes to mind is "The Monster Quilt." It would be a great gift for a child who is afraide of monsters hiding under the bed because this Sue Garman quilt pattern brings those monstors to the top of the bed...as colorful designs on the quilt top. In addition to the monsters that are appliqu?to the top of the quilt, Garman quilted a fun verse into the quilt's border.

Another of the beautiful Sue Garman quilt patterns is "Mama Said." Each block features a design and a special thought of all the ideals your own mother probably instilled in you: share, care, learn, play, love, hope, believe, dream and laugh. Once again, Garman has done an incredible job of capturing a segment of every day life and memorializing it for generations to come in the form of a quilt.

Sue Garman quilt patterns are not all whimsical. Some have a very traditional feel. "Floating Stars" and "Cotton Candy" are examples of quilts that recall the quilt patterns from long ago. "Floating Stars" is actually one of the Sue Garman quilt patterns that is a replica of a Civil War era quilt.
