A Quilting Life Early Summer Notes


Hello Reader,

Happy Sunday! I hope your weekend is going well and that lots of sewing is in your plans. I first want to say how thankful I am for those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country as well celebrate them and express our gratitude this Memorial Day Weekend in the US.

Although there is still another full week of May, it's definitely the unofficial start to summer where I live. School is out, daytime temperatures are in the high 90's, and the summer vibe is real. (I'm just so grateful we have had a beautiful May because the high heat is around the corner).

Today I'm sharing notes from the week, a new place to connect with A Quilting Life, some favorites for summer, and a look at what is coming soon. Plus find a special shop discount for newsletter subscribers good through tomorrow!

Notes from the Week

Below you'll find links to the posts from earlier this week. We shared a podcast and I also shared some of my thoughts for summer sewing, a new Sewcialites 3 block, and the weekly Saturday Seven. On the YouTube channel we shared the podcast and Chelsi shared one of her new Midsummer quilts.

The New (and free) A Quilting Life Community

If you want to stay in touch with all things A Quilting Life throughout the week, my new A Quilting Life Community might just be your space. (Don't worry, this weekend newsletter will still be here). Created as an alternative to Facebook groups, you can join the new community for free and hear about upcoming events and happenings early. There are weekly discussion prompts in the community (about quilting, of course), and I'll also have polls and surveys there to get some great feedback from our readers and viewers.

Recent Favorites

I'm getting ready to share my monthly favorites post next week and have a couple that are just too good not to share now!

Coming Soon

Tomorrow I'll be sharing some of my smaller projects AND the coordinating cross stitch projects for our Midsummer collection. I'll also be sharing the monthly Favorites post, a new Sewcialites block, and more!

Hello Reader, I hope you've had a wonderful week and that you are able to get some sewing and quilting done this weekend! It took me most of the week to get back in my normal rhythms after attending the H + H Americas convention in Chicago (I'm linking my recap of this event below). But I've been steadily getting things put away and cleaned up and am ready for a productive week ahead.
