Sharing a Finish – Solstice BOM

Block of the Month Program· Modern Triangle Quilts· Sewing with Triangles

6 Nov

Hello! Today I’d like to share my finished Solstice quilt top. This is the BOM (block of the month) we’ve been working on inside the Make Modern Triangles program this year and it is so fun to finally start seeing these beauties become quilts!

Now that the year is done, the Solstice program is complete and immediately available. You can get started today and make it at your own pace.

Solstice BOM at the Winery
Solstice at the Winery… *sip*

A few weeks ago, I took the above picture at one of our favorite wineries, Chandler Hill. But this week, I did a little video reveal on Facebook Live from my back deck. How could I not? Perfect fall weather, gorgeous fall trees? Yes please!

Afterwards, I snapped this casual photo on my Solstice BOM quilt with my dog, Alfred, on our back deck. (He was a good, happy boy and sat for his treat!) I shared this photo on the ‘gram and it quickly became one of my most liked photos.

I guess it’s no shocker that sharing a finished quilt top next to a big fluffy dog will be a hit! 

If you’re curious about that giant fluffy creature, my dog is Alfred the Leonberger. He is Bruce Wayne the Weiner Dog’s (big!) little brother. He weighs 130 pounds (so far!) and yes, I vacuum everyday, sometimes twice!

Ok, taking notes: Finished quilt top + goofy fur baby + fall tree = Instagram hit! 

I think I can do that! 😉

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. 💕
