Just in case you missed it, we’ve wrapped up the L Just in case you missed it, we’ve wrapped up the Light in the Dark mini quilt. You can now view the final chapter (learning how to quilt it). It has been my favorite part 🥰
I JUST completed my book. 🎉🥳 these pics are some s I JUST completed my book. 🎉🥳 these pics are some sneaky shots I took yesterday after wrapping things up. There’s still so much to do. I have a bit of polishing to do. And the whole thing needs testing. But just having all the projects done and photographed, and then knowing I’ll be releasing on time… whew! Weight off my mind. 

Oh and these crinkles are making me swoon! 🫠

And that is a wrap on the Light in the Dark mini q And that is a wrap on the Light in the Dark mini quilt class. I had SO MUCH making this little lovely with you. And just so glad for the push to start including the FMQ demos in these classes as well. THANK YOU! 🙏 Not sure I would be adding that to all future classes without that push. 🩷 These pics will show you that border much better. I swear scallops are my new favorite. I doubt I ever get away from freely doodling all over but some precision ruler work quilting here and there really puts the polish on a project. 

If you missed making this one with us, it’s still available as a self paced class at quiltyclass.com

I've been thinking a lot about Quilty Club lately, I've been thinking a lot about Quilty Club lately, and I realized I may not have been explaining it very well.

I talk a LOT about the classes because, I'm usually in the middle of teaching one. 

But Quilty Club isn't just for quilters who need a class.

When you join, there's already a whole library waiting for you, including around 15 patterns you can download right away. If you've been quilting for years, you can grab the patterns you want and head straight to your sewing machine.

And if you want a little help? That's there, too. The complete classes, demos, workshops, quilting lessons, and finishing techniques are all included.

Plus, Quilty Club members save 10% every time they shop at Meander + Make.

Sew along with me or sew completely on your own. Either way, you're welcome here. 💕
