Happy New Year's Week from A Quilting Life

Hello Reader, I hope your week has been a good one! And now we're into the final week of the year. This is such a favorite time of mine--I tend to get a lot of sewing done this week. I also like to reflect on the year ending and get organized for the upcoming seasons. I'll have some special posts for that this week and the early part of January. I'm looking forward to 2026! Earlier This WeekBelow you'll find the links to the blog posts from earlier this week:
Block of the Month NotesPlease be sure to download any remaining 2025 Block of the Month patterns you need before Thursday. I'll be taking them from my site and adding them to my shop. Our 2026 Block of the Month mystery quilt along begins on Monday, January 5th. I'm super excited to begin sharing this year's blocks! Also, I'm still working on getting some scrappy bundles ready for the shop for this sew along. I hope to have everything listed by Friday evening! Let's Get Organized Together!Stay tuned later this week as I begin a beginning of the year organizing series on the blog (with a YouTube channel video to kick it off). I'm hoping many of our readers and viewers will also participate--It's always nice to have a fresh start for this time of year. December $5 Pattern: Star Bright 2Just a few more days to get the December $5 pattern in paper or PDF. I'll be sharing the January $5 pattern in next week's newsletter. Stay tuned--it's a good one. On My Sewing TableI'm finishing up some Birch & Willow sewing that I started right before Christmas. Our Cuddle yardage also arrived, and I can't wait to make a couple of quilts with that. After I get these Birch & Willow projects finished, I'll be finishing up some smaller works in progress. (I'm super excited about my January sewing time since it's a slower time for us as designers). I hope the final days of the year are good ones for you and that you will get to spend some good time sewing, quilting, and enjoying the journey of this incredible art! Thank you so much for taking the time to read the weekly newsletter!
