Join Me for the 2026 Block of the Month Quilt Along
If you’ve been craving a creative project that feels fun instead of stressful, I have something special for you. I’m so excited to officially invite you to my 2026 Block of the Month series, hosted on Patreon! This is a year-long quilting project designed to help you slow down, stitch with intention, and enjoy a little “me time” each month; one beautiful quilt block at a time.
Because let’s be honest… life is busy. And sometimes the best thing we can do for ourselves is sit down at the sewing machine, turn on a playlist, and make something by hand.
A Quilt That Fits Into Real Life
Starting a quilt can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re looking at a big pattern and thinking about all the cutting, piecing, and planning it takes to get to the finish line.
That’s why I love a Block of the Month.
Instead of tackling an entire quilt at once, you’ll make one block each month, and by the end of the year, you’ll have a finished quilt top (and a whole lot of new skills along the way).
It’s the perfect way to break a big project into smaller pieces so it feels doable, manageable, and actually enjoyable.
Come Sew Along With Us on Patreon
The 2026 Block of the Month series will be hosted on Patreon, which means you’ll have access to the patterns, videos, and everything you need all in one place.
If you’ve been looking for a quilting project that feels supportive, inspiring, and not overwhelming, this is it.

About the Quilt
This year, we are making the Heirloom Sparkler quilt! This quilt is a fun take on a traditional Bear Paw quilt block (and inspired by my Bear Paw Lap Quilt and 2024 Riley Blake Block Challenge Quilt).
- 70″ x 70″
- All Traditional Piecing
- A combination of 3 different block sizes
- Two color options
Quilt Kits
This year, I’m excited to once again offer Quilt Kits for our Block of the Month quilt. There are two colorways available:
- Red, Blue, Navy, Pink & White
- Green, Blue, Navy, Pink & White
You can also sew with your own fabrics! You are not required to purchase a kit. Kits are now available for PREORDER; the order closes on January 24th, 2026.
What You’ll Get Each Month in the 2026 Block of the Month
Every month in 2026, you’ll receive everything you need to confidently complete that month’s quilt block:
✨ A PDF quilt block pattern
🎥 Step-by-step video instruction
🧵 Tips, techniques, and helpful guidance as you sew
📌 A steady rhythm that keeps you moving forward without rushing
Whether you’re a confident beginner or a seasoned quilter who wants a consistent project to work on, this series is built to support you.
A Year of Skill Building (Without the Pressure)
One of my favorite things about a Block of the Month is that you naturally improve your quilting skills as you go.
Over the course of the year, you’ll get more comfortable with things like:
- Accurate cutting and piecing
- Keeping seams consistent
- Pressing for flatter blocks
- Matching points and lining things up
- Building confidence with new techniques
- Developing a smoother quilting workflow
And because the project is spread out month by month, you can learn at a pace that feels calm and realistic.
No cramming. No marathon sewing sessions. No guilt if you’re a little behind.
Make Quilting Your “Me Time” Again
I truly believe quilting can be more than just another project on the to-do list.
It can be a way to slow down when everything feels loud.
A way to reset your brain.
A way to make something beautiful, one small step at a time.
Even if you only have an hour here and there, those little pockets of time add up. And there’s something so satisfying about finishing a block, pressing it flat, and thinking: I made that.
