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.

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.

“Modern” isn’t a strict definition or set of rules “Modern” isn’t a strict definition or set of rules to me... 👇

I started really thinking about what modern quilting meant to me when I was writing my book, Modern Triangle Quilts. 📖

Triangles became my playground. 
They gave me a way to create quilts that weren’t symmetrical, but still felt beautifully balanced.
A way to stretch, explore boundaries, and see design a little differently. ✨

For me, that’s what “modern” has always meant.
Not a strict definition.
Not a set of rules.

Just being playful and explorative in your quilting.
Trusting your eye and your own creativity.
And knowing you don’t have to follow every “should” to create something that feels right and beautiful. 🫶

These days, I find myself craving more symmetry again.
So here I am, in my little quilting corner, still working with triangles, just letting them evolve along with me.

I think that’s modern quilting too.

There’s something extra special about that first block... when the fabrics are fresh, the triangles are crisp, and the whole quilt still feels full of possibility.

👉 One modern triangle block at a time.
👉 One month at a time.
👉 That’s how this quilt (and this journey) begins.

Triangles have a reputation in the quilting world. Triangles have a reputation in the quilting world. 😅

And for years, I watched quilters feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to even begin when it comes to triangles.

After a decade of teaching and helping over 5,000 quilters, I realized the problem wasn’t you.

It was the lack of a clear, joyful system that felt doable and repeatable.

So I created the Modern Triangle Kaleidoscope system, a way to make modern quilting feel approachable, satisfying, and actually fun.

This class isn’t about perfection.
It’s about gaining confidence, clarity, and enjoying every step of the process. ✨

I’d love to guide you through it. Comment “TRIANGLE” to join me! 💌

You know that special kind of joy that comes from You know that special kind of joy that comes from solving a good puzzle? 🧩

The quiet focus.
The way your brain lights up as pieces start to fit.
That ahhh moment when something suddenly makes sense.

Quilting scratches that exact same itch!

You start with simple pieces.
Triangles. Shapes. Color.
And at first, they feel small and separate...

But month by month, as you keep showing up and stitching just a little at a time, something magical happens. 🪄

Those individual pieces start to click together. Patterns emerge, movement appears, and one day you step back and realize…

“Oh. This is becoming something really beautiful!” 😍

That’s something that I truly love about quilting. It’s part puzzle, part creativity, and part cozy ritual. ✨

You don’t have to sit down for hours at a time or be “in the mood” to create. A few stitches here, a block there, that’s how quilts are made.

If you’re someone who loves:
✨ puzzles
✨ crafts with a little brainpower
✨ projects that unfold slowly and thoughtfully
✨ and that deeply satisfying ta-da moment at the end

Then 2026 might just be your year to fall in love with quilting.

I’ll be over here in my little corner, turning triangles into something magical and cheering you on every step of the way. 💕
