Pat Sloan's FREE Wed Sew Along Merry & Bright Supply List

You may have heard a rumor my next sew along was Christmas memories.. and you were right!

This is my 2nd year of Wednesday sew alongs, I'm having so much fun with it!

For my Christmas Memories I'm calling it 'Merry & Bright' and I'll be using Christmas Delivery fabric

My Project Details:

• Start date July 25, 2018.
• End date Nov 28, 2018.
• The Blocks come out each Wednesday around 7am EST  
• ENTER YOUR EMAIL to get the weekly notice
• They are SIMPLE and FUN
• I weave memories in my Wednesday blocks. I have a title for the block and talk about that memory. The block does not LOOK like what I'm talking about. (ok.. sometimes it does, wink, but not usually).
• I design, write, create, and sew along with you & work with a fabric bundle
• The GOAL is to sew easy blocks with fun fabric that you love!  Good goal right?

 

I'm using a FQ Bundle of Christmas Delivery by Riley Blake + a few 1/2 pieces a background & border. My supply list gives you what my working bundle is.

My friend Joanna of Fig Tree designed this yummy quilt, put it in a book and gave us bonus companion projects. The photography is incredible and I LOVE the blocks!  It will be a sew along with the Fat Quarter shop. 

Once a month we'll sew blocks that are assigned. Not sure when the start date is as Joanna's fabric is not in yet. But you can see what it looks like and there are Jolly bars!

I will be creating a page for Merry & Bright of all the blocks. And letting you know when the Christmas Figs starts!

In the Summer Time FREE Block #20

Last block for In the Summer Time!  I will have a border option next week, which I'm still sewing on.... wheeee!!!!

Block #20 of 20 is 'Build Sandcastles!'.

There are SO MANY Summer memories I could pull from but decided to go way back in time to celebrate my Great Aunt June, who I loved dearly!  

All the blocks in this sew along have a diagram for using the block in repeat. Sometimes with the frame, or like this one, without the frame and just the block.  I think this will make an amazing scrap buster quilt!

My 'ultimate goal' is to make a quilt from each of these.. I wonder if that would be a cool scrap busting challenge? Work through some of them?

What do you think about that? I assign a blog and then we sew scraps up. Leave me a comment below

Next week is the border pattern. With travel and the start of  my Splendid Sampler project   I'm working to get it on, but I may only have one side until I'm back from the trip.
