Modern Rainbow {Book Cover}

finished quilts· quilt pattern

16 Sep

The time has come!

The time has come to share with you the cover of my book, Modern Rainbow!  Many of you may have already seen it, since it’s been on Amazon for a few weeks. Some of you have emailed me or tagged me, etc saying you’ve seen it, which is SO cool! Thank you!

So let me come out and show everyone my book’s cover.

ModernRainbow

As you might have guessed from the cover, the book is about making quilts using a spectrum of color. I so so so love making quilts using the entire spectrum and I’m honored to be able to share this love with y’all. But of course one could choose to make a quilt from my book and not use a rainbow palette. If you were so inclined, ahem. 🙂

I’m completely tickled and proud of my book. The team at Stash continues to just nail it with everything from the graphic design to photos and to all the other stuff that I can’t even name because I don’t even know what all that “stuff” is. But I’m so happy with it.

Naturally, I’m beyond excited for my book to come out but we will have to wait until March 1st. You can pre-order it on Amazon if you’d like. Soon, I will have pre-orders for signed copies available in my shop along with 2 new patterns. You at least won’t have to wait that long for the patterns. 🙂

Squeeeeeeeee!!!

*end gushing*

Always print your templates at 100% scale.

Before cutting your fabric, measure the 1-inch test box on your template.

Even being slightly off can affect the accuracy of your blocks later on and lead to some BIG oopsies. 😅

This is one of those tiny steps that saves a LOT of frustration later... Speaking from experience, and more re-done blocks than I could ever count!

1️⃣ Make a test block. I know it’s tempting to s 1️⃣ Make a test block. 

I know it’s tempting to skip this step... I cannot tell you how many times I have skipped making a test block and ended up regretting it later. If I had just made the test block, it would have saved me HOURS and HOURS of seam ripping and re-sewing, so take my advice and just always make the test block! 

I have never regretted making a test block, but I have regretted not making one. 😅

2️⃣ Celebrate the ta-da moments.

I’m not talking about just the finished quilt. I mean EVERY moment along the journey that feels like a win. Picking your colors and fabrics, sewing that first block, the points that line up, arranging blocks onto the design wall... Celebrate as much as you can along the way. 

I think too many quilters rush past these moments because they’re just focused on the finish line, but quilting isn’t one big “ta-da!” It’s a bunch of little “ta-da” moments stitched together.

3️⃣ Learn the freezer paper piecing technique.

I’m not kidding when I say it completely changed my quilty life... The more I quilt, the more I realize that frustration doesn’t make a quilt more valuable. Struggling doesn’t make you a better quilter. A good process gives you more confidence, helps you enjoy the sewing, and frees up a lot of your time to keep quilting. It makes you want to come back tomorrow and sew another block! 

Quilting is meant to be enjoyed and there’s so much to learn along the way. These three things have been HUGE along my quilting journey, and I know they can make an impact on yours too.

When I say I’ve tried it all, and quilting was the When I say I’ve tried it all, and quilting was the only thing that stuck, I MEAN IT! 😅

👉 Tried gardening, and all the plants would die before I got around to them. 
👉 Tried crochet, and discovered I can’t count that high (or just don’t want to!)
👉 Tried making kids’ clothes, and they always grew out of them before I could finish. 

But quilting? THAT’S my bread and butter. 

It was my mom who got me into quilting many years ago, and I’ve even been teaching quilting for over a decade. 

I’ve built a community of thousands of quilters from all over, at all ages and all skill levels. 

And the most important part of what we do is have FUN. 🙌
