about

Creating a beautiful world... one idea, one quilt, one pattern, one company, one relationship at a time

Passionate about creativity, driven by the success of a project, but touched by putting a smile of joy on someone’s face.  Jina Barney Designz is all about bringing happiness through quilting, sewing  and handwork.

Jina’s philosophy on
getting things done

My husband teases me because I tackle a project with the resources at my disposal, however inadequate they may be. When I have an idea in my mind I want to attack it now! I don’t think about how to organize my cutting table or whether my mouse is freely flowing on my desk. I just dive in and create!

I’ve never had shiny object syndrome, I’m not a gadget person. I just think of the most efficient way of getting things done with what I have now.

“Start where you are.
Use what you have.
Do what you can.”

– Arthur Ashe

Butterfly Kisses Pattern Cover

The name Butterfly Kisses was inspired from Jina’s little niece Paige who passed away from a tragic accident. At her funeral they let live butterflies lose and watched them fly away. Thus, Butterfly Kisses. Jina has been creating uniquely designed quilts, projects and clothing patterns since 2007.  These patterns represent real life experiences and will touch your heart.
