Spring Things from A Quilting Life


Hello Reader,

First, thank you so much for reading and subscribing to my weekly newsletter. I hope you'll find each one informative and interesting with inspiration for your own Quilting Life!

The Countdown Begins: 10 More Days

We are super excited to be sharing a brand-new collection with you in just ten days. All of my quilts are made and bound, and Chelsi is past the half-way mark with hers. We're getting closer to the finish line! Our official share date is May first, so stay tuned for the first pictures then. The next week we will be sharing this collection with the Quilting World at the H&H Americas show.

Earlier This Week

We had some great new content this week on both the blog and our YouTube channel. We shared a new podcast episode and details for our upcoming Poinsettia Stars BOM Sew Along (it begins in June). I also shared my latest Sewcialites 3 block, the most recent Saturday Seven Lifestyle post, and started a Substack subscription. Find all of the details below:

Coming This Week

Tomorrow I am happy to be sharing a new project. You'll have to wait until tomorrow to find out what it is, but I can tell you it's something for the sewing room and it's very cute!

May Schedule Notes

I also want to let everyone know that our schedule will look just a little bit different during the first part of May. Because of our fabric collection release and the H&H Americas show we've made a few adjustments to our schedule as noted below:

  • *We will share our new collection on Friday, May 1st. See a video on our YouTube channel that day along with a blog post.
  • *On Monday, May 4th we will be sharing a special podcast episode with a New York Times bestselling author. I'm super excited about this interview!
  • *On Thursday, May 7th we will share the May 2026 Block of the Month.
  • *And on Monday, May 11th, we will share a podcast episode about the new fabric collection.

Hello Reader, First, thank you so much for subscribing and reading my weekly newsletter. Each weekend I share links to the content on my website from the week before along with upcoming special events and things you won't want to miss.

See the block construction video on the blog or on our YouTube...

Hello Reader, Happy Easter if you are celebrating today! I'm grateful for this holiday, all it represents, and the reflection that it brings into my life.
