TA-DA! Ta-DONE!

BUSY Members Make Triangle Block Finishes!

Oh man, I love this so much. Look at what Laura M. did! Her Cosmos interpretation using prints is proof that you don’t have to work in solid fabrics to make a modern finish. Plus, beautiful custom quilting by a friend for a beautiful quilt. Congratulations, Laura!

Congratulations, Kristi B. on your BIG TA DA moment! Look at this gorgeous Wildflower BOM! Kristi’s saturated color palette is highlighted by the neutral background. The stitching is makes it yummy. The lucky wedding couple have received an amazing heirloom quilt.

Kristi B. Wildflower finish. Ta da!

Ta-da! Sherry B. finished her Cosmos top. Another awesome example of using prints and contrast for modern triangle blocks. Love ya, Solids, but Pretty Prints has got my attention! Congratulations, Sherry B.!

There’s so much inside the Make Modern Triangles Club – the new Aurora 2024 Block of the Month, triangle blocks, freezer paper piecing tutorials, a color theory program and a library of modern triangle quilt patterns, special workshops and holiday projects. (I feel like Bubba and Forrest making shrimp recipe lists…shrimp quilts, shrimp triangle blocks, shrimp color theory…)

Where to start?!

NEW MEMBER MAKES – A START AND A QUILT TOP FINISH

Ailsa H. was also busy this month. She chose to work on Bright quilt sampler.

Ailsa said it best! We are proud of you, too! Members cheered on her wonky finish.

Make modern triangles member quote about her project.

New members often ask “Where should I start?” because there are so many options. When they start poking around inside the club resources, they feel a leeeetle overwhelmed with all the goodies. A good overwhelm, right?!

So our terrific members often recommend these to new members – with lots of encouragement.

COLORING PAGES

Yup. Start with a coloring page and you’ll know what a modern triangle quilt pattern is all about – before you sew a single seam. Your brain wraps around it and starts connecting quilty neurons.

Sally M. got busy making her’s colorful right away.

So did Deann W., who has a few modern triangle quilts under her belt. I’m doing what she’s doing because she’s done it before. Follow the leaders!

Learn how coloring pages help quilters in four ways here. Kind of amazing how crayons, paper and playing around still make magic.

BUSY Members MaKe TRiangle Blocks and PROGRESS!

Becky M. went to work on her triangles while Jennifer H. went to work on the Wildflower BOM quilt. Members start wherever they want, which is pretty, pretty smart because they can ask experienced members for advice. We are so much better together.

Quilting is one of those things that sooner or lat Quilting is one of those things that sooner or later becomes more than just a hobby. 🫶

It might start as fabric and a project idea or a pattern…

And then somewhere along the way, you’re thinking about who it’s for, what they’ll love about it, and how they’ll use it. But you’re thinking of them the entire time you make it. 

And they think of you every single time they see it! ✨

And years later, that same quilt is still there on the back of a couch, at the end of a bed, or wrapped around someone you love.

We’re not just making quilts. We’re making memories and things that get used, loved, and held onto long after the last stitch is sewn.

Send this to a mom you want to know you are thinking of this week. 💌

I’ve just revealed a BRAND-NEW pattern!!! 🪄 Alche I’ve just revealed a BRAND-NEW pattern!!! 🪄

Alchemy is my latest block of the month pattern, and this one is for quilters who want something new and maybe even a bit of a challenge! 😉

Presale opens on May 11th. Mark your calendars and follow along! 💕

Do you ever feel like a quilting turtle... slow an Do you ever feel like a quilting turtle... slow and behind? 🐢

Well, let’s just say you’re not alone in that experience! 😅

I know the cycle all too well. Imagine, decide, plan, prep, and sew. Ope... enter mistakes and setbacks. A trip to the fabric store (again). Cut. Stitch. Rip. Stitch.​

Then, the sew-sweet finish! Finally, lol!

When progress feels slow like a turtle... I find it helpful to focus on three things: ⬇️

1️⃣ Celebrate Progress. Just taking the next (teeny tiny) small step can feel every which way but forward. But It’s still progress, especially if you took time for yourself to create! Celebrate it!

2️⃣ Delight in the unknown. Feeling unsure, wanting to quit, or starting over? It’s the normal artist’s experience. Isn’t it great? Haha!

3️⃣ Imagine the end game. Imagine how it’s going to feel when you finish that last stitch! And it’s going to be beautiful! Keep making progress (yes... even if it’s teeny tiny turtle progress!)! We’ve seen it happen, and it’s so possible for you! You can do this.

We all feel like turtles sometimes, that’s why it’s VITAL to celebrate progress, even if it’s block by block or one stitch at a time. 🪡

So today, take some time to celebrate your progress! It’s so thrilling every time I see a block finish! Eeeeeeeee! Every. time! Tell me what you are celebrating in the comments! ✨

So I uh... well, you see... inspiration hit, and I So I uh... well, you see... inspiration hit, and I designed and made a new Block of the Month quilt!

I know, I know... crazy?!

TOMORROW, I'll be revealing the design and walking you through the color choices and all that fun "new project planning" stuff!

Behind the scenes, I'm extra excited because I did the quilty math on the rainbow version, and it turns out we can use fat quarters!

A fat quarter-friendly project just makes choosing fabrics so easy! Fat quarters are like potato chips, you can't just have one... you simply collect them. 🧐

So, if you're like me! You probably have quite a collection of fat quarters. 🌈 🥹

I'll be making this new quilt design alongside you, using my collection of Alison Glass fabrics.

This BOM quilt is more challenging than my other BOM quilts, but still totally doable. Of course, the primary technique will be freezer paper piecing, so you can brush up on your skills in my "Scrappy Whirligig" class. Comment 'FREE' to take the class! 💌

I'm so proud of this quilt, and I cannot wait to show it to you! 🤩 If you want first dibs on the new Block of the Month program, comment 'FIRST' to add your name to the "first dibs" wait list, and I'll be sure you are the first to know when sign-ups are open! 🫶

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. 🤭
