Hello, friends! Today I’m sharing the Saturday Seven 468: Lifestyle & More for Quilters with a roundup of inspiration from around the internet. This week I’ve been trying to get back on track after being gone for almost six days teaching the week before. I’m finally starting to feel a little bit caught up and am also hoping to get some time sewing with new fabrics this weekend! Keep reading for all of the inspiration from the week!

Saturday Seven 468: Lifestyle & More for Quilters
1. Self-Care
I loved this piece on The Joy of Falling Behind…I need to embrace this more often, I think! I also loved the ideas in this article on The Practice of Doing Less, On Purpose. Both of these are good reminders for this busy season we are entering.
2. Recipes to Try
This Chickpea Salad looks so good and fresh! And here is a great roundup of The Best Soup and Stew Recipes for Easy Meals.
3. Quilt & Sew
I’ve added a few fun fabrics to the shop and will be adding more later today including some terrific Favorite Things + Poinsettia & Pear Mix Bundles! Visit the shop here. Also, Fat Quarter Shop has Magic Dots on sale this month…and Aurifil Thread is on sale as well!
4. Book & Podcast Recommendations
I loved this Best of Both Worlds episode on Personal Policies + Standard Operating Procedures for Life. And this special episode of Happier is all about getting ready for relationships during the holidays (including your relationship with yourself).
5. Scotland + Ireland with Me and Deb Strain!
I am so looking forward to another fabulous Craft Tours trip next summer (2027)! This time I will be traveling to Scotland and Ireland with the amazing Deb Strain. Deb is a fellow Moda designer and an incredible artist and human…I have loved getting to know her over the past 11 years and can’t wait for this exciting trip. Registration is open now!
6. Maui Retreats
I’ll also be teaching at two different events in Maui in 2027 with my friends Vanessa Goertzen and Camille Roskelley. We are all so excited to share coastal-themed and Christmas projects with you there. Registration opens on Saturday, November 21st, and spaces are limited. Find more details below.
