Editor’s Note March 2025

Snow is melting, birds are singing and patches of grass are turning green — the signs of the upcoming season are all around us!  There’s something magical about this time of year — the world feels new again, and so does our creative energy. It’s the perfect moment to throw open the windows, let the light pour in, and dive into colorful quilting projects that reflect the changing season.

If there’s one color that truly captures the essence of March, it’s aquamarine — the cool, tranquil birthstone of the month. You’ll find its influence in Brenda Plaster’s stunning spring quilt and Debbie von Grabler-Crozier’s fresh take on the classic sawtooth star block. If spring organizing is on your to-do list, Debbie also has a chic storage drum to help keep your crafting materials in order. And for those with spring break travel plans, Sophie Tarrant’s elegant rolled jewelry organizer is a must-make.

Easter is right around the corner, and what better way to welcome guests than with a delightful door banner from Debi Schmitz? Plus, this issue brings a modern pinwheel quilt from Joy Heimark, expert Bargello quilting tips from Ann Butler, and so much more.

So let’s shake off the last chill of winter, embrace the colors of spring and start sewing!

Happy quilting!
