Dear Quilting Superstar,
January is a great time to start planning out your projects for the year. Is it time for a new quilt for you? For a friend? How about a little something to spruce up the kitchen (or make a great housewarming gift!)? Here’s a peek inside the January Issue of We Like Quilting!
Winter Elegance
Make this modern style the new tradition in your home. The Chic Black and White Modern Lap Quilt has the feel of a classic quilt with a mesmerizing modern design. And the more you look at it, the more patterns you see emerging before your eyes! Make this showpiece quilt for yourself!
Need a little traditional style with clean lines for a bed or sofa cover? Our Tic Tac Toe Quilt has some powerful piecework going. You’ll love the clean lines of this design and the way the patterns build on each other. Customize this quilt to your favorite color palette.
What’s your favorite way to bind and finish your quilts? We’ll share some options in Three Simple Methods to Bind and Finish a Quilt Top.
Let it snow
Here we are, smack in the middle of winter. Let’s celebrate the season! Our cheerful Let It Snow Wall Hanging features a cheerful snowman with his happy bird friend out enjoying the winter day. This wall hanging makes a great gift for a winter-loving friend, and it gives you the opportunity to do a little scrap-busting. Plus, you can practice the trapunto quilting technique to give your wall hanging that extra 3D effect that really makes this hanging pop!
If you love snow, you’ll love our Snowball Quilt Block. Pick your favorite snow-themed fabrics with textures and patterns that call to you and start making some blocks that you can work into a lot of different projects, from table runners to wall hangings to quilts. Let this snowball block inspire you!
Weekend wonders
It feels so good to finish a project, whether it’s a gift for someone else or something special for yourself. We have a couple projects you can finish over the weekend.
Our Garden Path Table Runner is the perfect winter spruce-up for your dinner table. The brick path style gives you plenty of options for color placement, and you can finish the quilting with most home sewing machines; we used a diagonal wave to complement the brick path pattern.
How about making a heartfelt housewarming gift (or something special just for you!)? Make our Sweet Folk Art Applique Tea Towel to give your kitchen some extra sparkle. The folk art pattern really pops on the white background, and the stitching style is stress-free. You may be able to find a lot of the fabrics for this project in your scrap stash.
Expand your quilting skills, freshen up your décor, or treat yourself to something new. There’s plenty to choose from in the January Issue of We Like Quilting!
The patterns in our January Issue of We Like Quilting range from Easy to Experienced. That means skill and confidence building for beginning sewists, and interesting challenges for the more experienced among us. All these projects are designed to inspire you and brighten your day!
No expert quilting skills are required to make any of the projects in our January Issue. Each pattern in this issue includes a detailed template, pattern notes, and a complete list of the tools and materials you need to succeed. Let the creativity flow with this month’s projects. Let’s get quilting!
