We’re soaking up the summer vibes here at We Like Quilting, and our June 2025 issue is full of cheerful, creative projects to keep your sewing machine humming through the season. Whether you’re quilting during a quiet afternoon indoors or taking advantage of a long weekend to start something new, there’s plenty to enjoy in this month’s lineup.
Sujata Ryan’s Summer Sun, Seas, and Sand Lap Quilt brings the beauty of a beach day to your sewing room with soft waves, sandy tones and a radiant sky. For a more refined project, try Brenda Plaster’s Artist’s Palette Quilt — a sophisticated design that makes a thoughtful Father’s Day gift. And if Dad’s a fan of classic games, Sophie Tarrant’s quilted checkerboard is a charming and useful surprise.
Planning ahead for the 4th of July? Add some patriotic flair with Sujata’s elegant table runner or Debbie von Grabler-Crozier’s striking carpenter star block. You’ll also find tips for getting ready for your next quilt retreat from Rebecca George, a fresh roundup of wishlist-worthy finds and our new Editor’s Picks section.
Happy quilting!
