Aurora BOM! Tada!

Block of the Month Program· quilt along· Sewing with Triangles· Uncategorized

21 Nov

Aurora BOM is the 2024 quilt-a-long program for Make Modern Triangles members.

Auror-rah! Auror-rah!

Aurora is launched and I’m so excited that YOU are excited!

I love rainbow palettes. They’ve been a big part of my quilting journey and growing as a creative.

PLANNING AurORA IS PROGRESS

December 1 starts Planning Month for 2024. The planning workbook, yardage requirements and more is dropped into the Club on December 1. Truly everything you need and want to plan and make a modern triangle quilt, including a project tracker and video tutes.

I’m inspired to start the sewing part, and also know that the Planning Month sets us up for successful triangle quilting with freezer paper piecing.

Planning builds are confidence when staring down a modern triangle quilt with LOTS OF TRIANGLES. That happens to look like a Lone Star quilt (look very closely) but goes together without y-seams!

NO Y-seams. None.

When members start posting coloring pages and fabric pulls, it’s a big inspiration boost for EVERYONE;

You’ve got this.

You can do it.

We’re better together.

A modern triangle quilt is soooo doable a step at a time with each other.

When you know where you’re going – even when you don’t have all of the skills yet – every step is progress. When I see someone else do something, I’m motivated to jump in to the next step.

Four COLORWAYS AND COUNTING…

I had so much fun creating the colorways. You’ve seen Rainbow, now meet the rest:

Aurora Rainbow Palette

Rainblow Aurora color palette in orange, magenta, bright pink, lime, teal yellow and brown triangle blocks. Black and white.

Now, it’s your turn for a big ta-da! Use a ready-to-go palette or create your own on the coloring pages. Have fun!

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. 💕

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

One thing that will NEVER get old with freezer paper piecing... ⬇️

The number of blocks I can sew from just ONE foundation! 🙌

It always amazes me, and it’s one of my favorite things about the technique. 

I save so much time not having to make a new foundation for every single block, and that’s not to mention the time saved from not having to rip the paper bits of those foundations out of the seams. ✨

I’m hosting a free class where I teach you this technique, and give you a modern triangle block pattern to start sewing!

There’s so much pressure on us in the quilting wor There’s so much pressure on us in the quilting world to finish what we started. 👇

But if you’re stuck staring at a stack of unfinished blocks, and it’s keeping you out of the sewing room because it’s the last thing you want to sew right now, this is the advice that I would give you. 

It’s okay to put a project down for a while. 🫶

I’ve had projects and quilts that sat folded up for weeks… months… even longer. Projects I avoided because I got stuck, or lost momentum, or honestly just wasn’t in the mood to sew that anymore. AND IT’S OKAY! 🙌

Every single time I came back to them after putting them down for a while, I felt that spark for sewing again. I felt the inspiration that I started the project with, and I started ENJOYING it again. ✨

So if you have something that you’re avoiding sewing, let this be your permission slip to just put it down and know that you’ll come back to it when the time is right. 

Put your favorite emoji in the comments if you needed to hear this. 💕
