Fast & Fun Sampler Quilt Along - Coming Soon!!!

 Today I am super excited to be sharing a little teaser for my upcoming Fast & Fun Sampler Quilt Along!  I can't wait for this Quilt Along and hope you will be joining me in the fast & fun quilting.  


This is the sampler design for the Fast & Fun Sampler Quilt Along!  I had so much fun working on the design for this quilt along.  I used blocks from from each of the 9 quilts in the Fast & Fun Lap Quilts Book and put them in this fun medallion/row quilt layout.   It is a queen size quilt finishing at 92" x 92" and I am so looking forward to quilting it up along with all of you!


The Quilt Along officially starts April 5th with the first block release, and there will be a new block release each Wednesday until May 24th.   The Fabric Requirements will be released super soon (like most likely this Friday) but for now, you can start thinking about your favorite Layer Cake/10" Stackers that you will want to make your quilt in.  You will be using 2 Layer Cake/10" Stackers and you can use 2 of the same or mix and match your squares.  


And I am going to make 2 quilts as shown above.  The first quilt I will be using 2 Sunnyside Layer Cakes by Camille Roskelley for Moda.   The second quilt I will be using 2 Ally's Garden 10" Stackers by Dani Mogstad for Riley Blake Designs.   I wanted to show you what the sampler would look like with both  light and  a dark background, and I am excited to be making 2 versions along with all of you.  




This is going to be a super fun and super easy Quilt Along to participate in.   No need to sign up or anything, just follow along each week and make the assigned blocks and then share them.   Of course, we will be having prizes along the way as well.    So from beginners to an experts alike, you are sure to have a great time quilting along! 



Oh, and one last note.  You will need a Fast & Fun Lap Quilts Book to Quilt Along.  And this just leads to more exciting news to share . . . my Fast & Fun Lap Quilts book is now being published by C&T Publishing and will release on March 25th  and it is available for pre-order!!!  You can pre-order a copy of Fast & Fun Lap Quilts directly from C&T Publishing, or if you would like  a signed copy directly from me, that is an option as well ;)  And if you prefer E-books, you can get a digital copy of Fast & Fun Lap Quilts right here.   

So grab your book and start thinking about what fabrics you want to use.  The Fabric Requirements will be released soon along with lots more details for quilting along.   I am so super excited!  Only a few more weeks until April 5th and all the Quilt Along Fun ;)   

I hope you all have a very Happy Quilting Day!
