Work in Progress – Star Dance #4 – The jazzy blue one

  I’ve been working the past several weeks on a gargantuan quilt.  We are talking a big ol’ 96″ square.  Yah!  And it’s all half square triangles too! This is my fourth Star Dance quilt.  You can see the others here. This is also a free pattern of mine that you can find here.  …

Work in Progress – Moon Goddess #2

  I don’t normally have two quilt patterns coming out within weeks of each other, but that’s where I’m at right now.   I had planned to release Moon Goddess back in February, but I wanted it to coincide with the release of the Half Rectangle Ruler and since the pandemic happened, shipping the ruler to…

Work in Progress – Moon Goddess Quilt

  Last year, during the time I was hosting the Bad Girl quilt along and we were all working on a few blocks a week, we probably made hundreds of half rectangle triangles between all of us.  You remember my tutorial for them, don’t you?  If not, it’s here.  Well, I try to write my…

Work in Progress – Para Para Quilt #2 – Violet Sky Fabrics

  I feel like I’ve been doing everything in slow motion.  There’s not seeming to be enough hours in the day lately.  I’m ten days late having this quilt top completed (a self imposed deadline).  I’m distracted with doing nothing and I’m starting to get on my own nerves.  Do you ever feel this way? …

Work in Progress – Para Para Quilt – Finished Quilt Top

  Last week I finished my first Para Para quilt top.  Finally!  Y’all, I have been dreaming about this quilt since early 2019 and now that I’ve finished it, well, finished the top, I am ecstatic.  I’m already dreaming up the next one. I should be quilting her up in the next day or two…

🌸 Last Call for Must Have Flowers Thursday is the 🌸 Last Call for Must Have Flowers

Thursday is the final day to pre-order Must Have Flowers.

This cheerful collection is full of delicate, hand-drawn florals and all the happy colors that make summer quilts so much fun to sew. I’m using it right now for the larger Swayful quilt inside the Swayful Quilt Class, and I love seeing those flowers come together block by block.

We currently have:

• Fat quarter bundles
• Half yard bundles
• Yardage
• Quilt kits

After Thursday, the kits and yardage will no longer be available. Bundles will remain only while supplies last.

The collection is expected to arrive by the end of July. Find it at https://meanderandmake.com
Chapter 3 of the Swayful Quilty Class is now avail Chapter 3 of the Swayful Quilty Class is now available!

This is where we finally start sewing. In this chapter, we'll build the Swayful block step by step, learn a few ways to speed up snowball piecing, and finish with my favorite batch sewing workflow for keeping every block organized from start to finish.

This chapter is all about getting your fabrics ready before we begin sewing. We'll cover fabric placement, choosing a fat quarter pull, exploring color inspiration with Swayful mockups, preparing fabrics with pressing spray, and my favorite paper plate method for organizing blocks.

A little preparation now makes the sewing process so much more enjoyable.
