Almost August: Notes from A Quilting Life


Hello Reader,

I hope you are having a wonderful weekend! Here it's been really hot--118F the last couple of days with no end to this heat wave in sight. So the best place to be has been in my sewing room! I've been working on some fun new things with gorgeous new fabric :)

$5 for August

There will be limited shipping from the shop from the end of this month until August 10th--so I decided to share the $5 August pattern now for those of you who like to get the paper copy. (PDF versions of all of the patterns will be available as usual during the limited shipping dates).

Al Fresco is shown in our Seashore Drive collection and is such a fun fat eighth quilt. I've taught this one before and loved seeing all of the many versions made--hint: it's also beautiful in holiday prints and is also a terrific scrap buster!
