You asked, and the answer was a resounding YES—let’s sew from our stash! 🎉
I was blown away by the response to the quilt along survey—over 1,350 quilters chimed in, and the overwhelming consensus was clear: it's time for a stash-busting quilt along!
I originally proposed three patterns—Peanut Butter Pinwheels, Wharf Street, and Flagstone Path—all beginner-friendly designs that work beautifully with scraps. While Peanut Butter Pinwheels was the top pick with over half of the votes, the votes for the other two were nearly tied.
So, why choose just one? Let’s include all three! That way, you can pick the pattern that best suits your scraps.
How the quilt along will work:
🗓 Kickoff Date: Thursday, February 20th (plenty of time to grab a pattern & pick fabrics).
⏳ Duration: 6 weeks, wrapping up on April 3rd. I'll post schedules for each of the three designs to keep you on track.
🎉 Final Parade: Share your quilt top or finished quilt at the end.
🚫 No Prizes—Just Fun: This is all about using what we have & enjoying the process.
📝 Weekly Posts: I'll be posting tips on fabric organization, scrap-busting ideas, and sewing techniques each week.
🔹 The Challenge: Try to create your entire quilt—top, binding, and backing—using only fabric from your stash! No new fabric purchases needed.
This is going to be a fun, low-pressure quilt along, and I’d love to have you join in!
