If you are just hearing about Sunday Best Quilts, I’ve included some links below that share the photos of our beautiful quilts. Corey and I are also hosting a sew-along right now using the book, so I’ve included a link to the most recent sew-along post which will give you all of the information if you’d like to join in (we only started two weeks ago, so it’s not too late)!
Just a Few More Details on the Giveaway…
- Giveaway closes at the end of day on Sunday, October 13th (Pacific Time). I’ll notify the winner who will then have 24 hours to respond, or another winner will be chosen.
- You have the opportunity to win at each of the participating blogs above; however, you can only win once each month.
- Good luck!
Happy quilting, and thanks so much for stopping by!

I can hardly wait to get started on this quilt. Right now I have more pressing projects with deadlines to finish.
Susan Willison says
I recently received my reserved fat quarter bundle of Harper’s Garden and am so looking forward to using it for your Family Farm quilt pattern! I also saved all the information on the Merry Mini Christmas Sew Along and want to do that as well. Although I am a long time sewist, my foray into quilting just began two years ago so when I ran across this sampler pattern I thought it would be a perfect learning tool especially after doing the last two of Jackie’s quilt alongs. I very much enjoy your newsletters. Happy Stitching!
