Dear Quilting Superstar,
When’s the last time you cleared out your fabric stash? As the trees start to show their fall colors, dip into your own colorful stash to create something uniquely you! Check out the bold, bright, and fun projects in the October Issue of We Like Quilting!
Colorful Quilting

If you love precuts, you’ll love our Berry Blush Jelly Roll Quilt. This easy strip quilt pattern uses a jelly roll in vibrant pinks and blues with some cheerful sashing to break things up a bit. A thick outer border in a coordinating fabric frames the strips perfectly. Choose your favorite color palettes in solids and prints and have a blast making this quilt!
Celebrate the arrival of a fall baby with a fantastic fall quilt. Our Little Darlin’ Fall Baby Quilt shines with rich autumn colors and a panel bursting with a profusion of fabulous florals and berries appliqued and finished with lovely quilting details. This is one stunning quilt!
Quilt blocks are how we learn new styles. Want to make a block that’s a little out of the ordinary? Our Scrappy Autumn Wonky Star Quilt Block is just the thing! This a great way to put your fabric scraps to good use. Make a funky pillow, or make a bunch of wonky stars for a super eye-catching quilt!
Trendy Touches

Puff quilting is popping up everywhere, from clothes to accessories. We love the Alexis Puff Quilt Tote Bag with its bright blocks of color. This cheerful tote will carry your day’s essentials with room to spare! This project is perfect for beginning quilters and beyond, so make one now to add a colorful carry-all to your accessories.
Sew your own fabric sunset with our Lyra Quilted Denim Jacket Refashion. Take a thrifted denim jacket or your well-loved jacket and transform a rainbow of fabric scraps into a stunning scene for the back panel of the jacket. Use the sunset scene as inspiration and let your imagination (and your scrap stash) guide you! You’ll have a showcase piece that’ll spend more time in the fresh air than in the closet.
The joy that sunflowers bring is always in season. Keep that cheerful glow going all year long with our Snappy Sunflower Table Runner. This beginner-friendly project combines traditional piecing with machine applique and free motion quilting. Brighten up your table with this lovely runner whose flowers will never wilt!
