From the Stargazer Community – Month 3 Highlights

Block of the Month Program· Modern Triangle Quilts

12 Apr

Hey there! I’m stopping in today to brag on my Stargazer community and share their beautiful makes from Month 3 of the Stargazer BOM program. Month 3’s blocks are the most challenging and time intensive blocks in the program. But, on the flip side Month 3 offers a really fun and versatile block.

Despite the difficulty and work load, the Stargazers are shining! Of course there’s plenty instructional support for sewing these tricky angles together, but this month the support of the “hive mind” was huge! You’ll see the Stargazers came through in style!

Michelle’s enjoying some design fun with these “incredibly versatile blocks”. This alone would make a really cool quilt pattern… I’m getting some ideas!

Lorraine is also enjoying some design fun with her “flock” of blocks. Hehe! What a fun challenge this design would be to piece together. It certainly breaks the traditional quilt grid, doesn’t it?

To close out this month, let’s throw it back to a mockup for some added motivation. We’re almost halfway through making our blocks before sewing the quilt top together and I think we might need some added motivation after working so hard in Month 3. This beauty is what @fargoquilter is working towards. So lovely!

Ok, that is what’s up for Month 3 so far! We Stargazers worked super hard this month and as a treat, Month 4 will be a complete delight! It will be so easy you’ll be kinda bored. Haha!

Thank you Stargazers!

Well done Stargazers! Thank you for sharing your beautiful work with us and for sharing your piecing wisdom so freely within the Stargazer community. We are better together!

    We have had a busy month here at home so I have NONE of my month 3 blocks completed. All I have been able to do is sneak time to make the trinket blocks, only one more of those and those will be completed. I am really happy to know there is make up time coming. I have enjoyed seeing the progress of everyone, and cant wait to add mine to the line up!

    Really pretty blocks. n The quilts are all going to be really pretty as well. I have been looking for the Pantone link party that opened on the 5th. Is it on this blog somewhere? ‘Cannot find it and want to add my quilt.

Mark your calendars... I am revealing a BRAND-NEW Mark your calendars... I am revealing a BRAND-NEW block of the month design on May 1st! 🗓️ ✨

Yes, you read that right! 🙌

I have been working behind the scenes on ANOTHER block of the month pattern, and you’ll finally be able to see it on May 1st! 

And get excited, because this one is completely new and unlike any I have ever released before. I think you’re going to love it. 🤭

I’ve just recently got all of these quilts back fr I’ve just recently got all of these quilts back from the quilter!!!! 😍

I think as quilters, we sometimes get really wrapp I think as quilters, we sometimes get really wrapped up in a project or wanting to finish by a certain deadline, that we forget to just play. 🙌

Triangle blocks are especially fun for playing with! 

Because the same exact blocks can look completely different depending on how you arrange them.

All of a sudden, you’re not just following a pattern anymore, you’re creating something unique. 🪄

And I think that’s where a lot of the joy in quilting lives.

Not in getting it “right” or making it perfect, but in letting yourself be curious. 

Letting yourself try something, change it, try something else, and be a little playful instead of precise.

Some of my favorite quilts didn’t come from a perfectly planned layout… 👇

They came from standing at the wall, thinking, “Wait… what if I try it like this instead?” 👀

So if you have a few triangle blocks sitting nearby, take a little time to play with them and see what kind of pattern they end up in. 

Comment ‘TRIANGLE’ if you want to take my free class where I teach you how to make a modern triangle, and give you a block pattern to start sewing. 💕

This time of year in the sewing room is always so This time of year in the sewing room is always so lovely. 

We FINALLY get to have the windows open, the world outside is getting colorful again, and the extra daylight is a big bonus. 

This is my recipe for a PERFECT April sewing day...

✨ Self care: plan meals/snacks for eating right & getting your exercise (booooooo! I know, I know.) Maybe a fun wee treat tho!?

✨ Entertainment: if it’s just you, get your show/ sporting event/ audible, etc. Or if you’re with your quilty buds, you know what to do! Sew, gab, laugh!

✨ Something you’re excited to sew: latest bingeable project at the ready!? Latest fabric stack that arrived in the post? Or...finally get that WIP d.u.n!

✨ Essential responsibilities taken care of: feed the dog, respond to that time-sensitive email, dinner for the fam? Take care of what you must get done so you can check out more completely.

Finally, set a timer for your hard stop time.

I set my alarm for when I need to pick up my kiddos from school. That way, I can get carried away by my creativity and indulge in “me” time!

Shut the laptop, check out, it’s sew time! 🧵 Everything else on your to-do list can wait. It is time for you!

What are you working on for a perfect April sewing day? ⬇️

If my WIP pile was getting out of control… here’s If my WIP pile was getting out of control… here’s exactly what I’d do: ⬇️

👉 Find a community of quilters to connect with, learn from, and grow with. People who cheer you on, celebrate your blocks, and make you want to keep going!!! 

👉 Make it easier on yourself with freezer paper piecing. This technique completely changed my life. I wanted to give up on quilting altogether at one point before I found freezer paper piecing. 

It’s not that you don’t finish quilts…

It’s that you don’t have the right support or the right process yet. 🧵✨ Comment ‘FREE’ to take my free class, learn the freezer paper piecing technique, and get invited to join an amazing community. 💕

One stitch at a time!!! 🪡 Sometimes, a few hours One stitch at a time!!! 🪡

Sometimes, a few hours (or days) in the sewing room just makes it all alright. 🙌

Who agrees? ⬇️
