The Practical Quilter
The Practical Quilter is a new concept shopping experience for the New Zealand Quilter with the sole focus of offering the supplies and accessories needed to make amazing quilts, bags or other textile items.
Kia ora and welcome to our Needle in a Hayes Stack category here at The Practical Quilter. This clever design studio, led by the talented Tiffany Hayes, is known for bold colour, striking geometry and patterns that look wonderfully complex while still being achievable. Fun fact: Tiffany is not only a quilt designer but also a certified instructor and thread educator, and she often builds her patterns around her own Gemstone Template system to make tricky‑looking blocks far easier than they appear.
In this collection you’ll find her vibrant quilt patterns, template‑friendly designs and projects that are perfect for anyone who loves strong shapes and a bit of creative challenge. Her patterns are clear, thoughtful and designed to help you grow your skills as you sew.
Have a browse through the range, and if there’s a Needle in a Hayes Stack pattern you’re after that isn’t listed, just get in touch. We’re always happy to help track down exactly what you need.
