Hello, friends! Today I’m sharing the Saturday Seven 405: Lifestyle & More for Quilters with a roundup of fun things I’ve found from around the internet this week. I also have a fun new small project pattern to share that I think is pretty cute! Keep reading for all of the details!
At home I’ll be binding away as I got three finished quilts back from my quilters the other day! So excited to have all of my market projects finished a full month before quilt market!

Saturday Seven 405: Lifestyle & More for Quilters
1. Self-Care
I loved my friend Vanessa’s recent post: “Joy is Grown, Not Given.” I also loved this post on “The Key to Simplicity.“
2. Recipes to Try
This Turkey Baco Avocado Sandwich with a honey-avocado sauce looks amazing! I’m also making this Bang-Bang Salmon with Avocado Cucumber Salsa soon. Finally, when you’re in a hurry–here are The 7 Best Frozen Meals Pro Chefs Choose!
3. Quilt & Sew
I am super excited to share my most recent small project pattern. The Pumpkin Table Mat + Placemat pattern features a delightful pumpkin with a heart center. Make the mat, a set of placemats, or all! PDF files are available for download now and paper patterns will ship in about a week.
4. Book & Podcast Recommendations
I was super excited to learn that James Clear has an Atomic Habits Workbook coming out in December. This book will be an official companion to his international best-seller Atomic Habits. I’ve already pre-ordered the workbook as I have found his original book to be one of my all-time favorites!
5. August Sew Sampler Box + Nantucket Summer Designer Box
The August Sew Sampler box arrived from Fat Quarter Shop, and we filmed a quick unboxing video (watch above or on our YouTube channel). In the video I also share the Nantucket Summer Designer Box. It was so fun to see the contents of both. The designer box portion will allow you to see a bit of what you might expect from our upcoming Delightfully Yours Designer Box! Find links to available products below (the Nantucket Summer boxes are selling out quickly):
- August 2025 Sew Sampler A La Carte Box
- Sewline Air Erasable Fabric Pen
- 4-in-1 Hexie Template
- Flowering Block 5
- Nantucket Summer Designer Bin
6. Some Favorite Amazon Finds
I absolutely love this Olive Oil Sprayer (it pours, too). I use it all of the time now to coat pans and food before cooking/putting in the oven/air fryer. And I’m also loving this mini pot for warming up small amounts and not having to use my bigger saucepans. I’m also loving these dishwasher-safe reusable storage/freezer bags.
