An All New Happy Quilting Pattern Look and 
5 New Happy Quilting Patterns 




 and 1 amazing Fast & Fun Sampler Quilt Along 




And that's Happy Quilting 2023 in a nutshell!!!! So much crazy fun!!!  This year it was a huge step to start having my patterns distributed through wholesale channels and giving them a new look.   It was a lot of work behind the scenes, but I am so happy with how it all came together!!!   And it is just so fun to get to teach all of these patterns now.  
I taught at 9 different Quilting Retreats and I enjoyed getting to share my love of quilting with so many fellow Happy Quilters.   And 2024 is already lined up for lots of teaching fun as well, you can see the details on my Teaching Tab.
 And for all of the details about all of the quilts from this year, see my Archive Cont. Tab at the top of the page.  And once again, I have spent the last 6 hours updating that tab, here is to not getting behind in 2024, which I believe I said in 2022 as well, tee hee hee :)  


And I just want to say Thank You So Very Much!!!   I never would have guessed when I started my blog 12 years ago that it would lead to being part of such an amazing industry.     Whenever I am asked  "how did you start out " I just have to smile at the journey that Happy Quilting has made.   I am so blessed to have each of you and can't thank you enough for always reaching out to me, sharing your sweet comments, and your beautiful quilts.   It makes me so grateful to be Happy Quilting every day :)


And now, It's 2024!!!

So what does 2024 hold in store . . . well, like always, lot's more Happy Quilting, of course :)      I have new free PDF patterns in the works,  New Happy Quilting Patterns in all different stages of completion, Old Happy Quilting patterns to update to the new look, and  lots of teaching at lots of fun places, including on a Quilting Cruise to the Caribbean.  So ya, it should be a pretty fun year!!!   


And again, one last time . . . Thank you!!!!


So long 2023, Yippee for 2024!!! Happy Quilting!!!

  1. Welcome 2024 with good health, joy, happiness and an abundance of creativity.
    Thank you for last year's posts that we filled with inspiration.
    Many of your quilt patterns are my WIP'S and hopefully will be finished soon. What is holding me back, my longarm needs to be repaired. UGH!
