Free Pincushion Pattern, Red + White + Blue Inspiration & More


Hello there Reader,

Hello, and thanks so much for reading my weekly newsletter. It's officially summer here--the days are now getting shorter, the temperatures are rising, and June is nearly over. I'm not sure why June always seems to go so fast, but I realized I'd better get out my red, white and blue quilts soon! I'm finishing up a couple of new projects this weekend that I'll share with you next week.

If you're looking for some red, white and blue inspiration, I have a couple of posts with quilt and project ideas!

As I mentioned last week, Favorite Things has shipped! New this week, though, are some fun 108" wide backings from the collection.

And below you'll find the posts from this week. Be sure to visit the Pincushion Tutorial post to download the free pincushion PDF!

Thanks again for reading--I hope you get to spend some time with your sewing and quilting projects soon :)

Hello Reader, I hope your weekend is a good one! I've been catching up on lots of things and making plans for my fall sewing and activities.
