Fall 2021 Quilt Alongs to Do

I know. I have way to much to do. But who can resist a Quilt Along? So I’ve added 4 projects to my “Current Project” List. These are running from September to November and are released on a different day of the week for 5 to 9 weeks. Two of them will definitely begin to get me into Holiday stitching!

BOM, QAL, WIP, UFO, OMG,
Tops for Fabric Cafe

Project #1 – Snowmen & Silent Night by Jacquelynne Steves

This is an email based sew along. The fabric requirements have already been released, but the actual patterns will begin September 20th & will be emailed on Mondays for 5 weeks. If interested, it’s not too late to sign up. I have already pulled my fabric from my stash and am ready to begin.

Project #4 – From My Carolina Home – Autumn Jubilee Mystery QAL

I don’t really know if Carole will be doing another of her Autumn Jubilee this coming October, but I am definitely going to follow her if she does. It’s always fun to see what she has planned for us. If she does, it runs the month of October and includes a variety of craft/sewing projects for all different interests. Click Here to view her previous Autumn Jubilee offerings.

In the United States we will be having a 3-day weekend since Monday is Labor Day. Labor Day is always the first Monday in September. It became an official Federal holiday in 1894 and is in recognition of the contributions and achievements of the working force. It is also thought of as the end of Summer and most schools have returned for the new academic year.

Hopefully I will get some sewing done!

Happy Stitching!
