Next Quiltalong: The Charlotte Quilt
You all voted, and it was a landslide—The Charlotte Quilt is the winner! I’m so excited to sew this pattern again—and even more thrilled to see the unique versions you each create. This pattern is perfect for a wide range of skill levels — whether you’re new to quilting or a seasoned pro, you’ll find something to learn and enjoy.
😊 Why I Love This Pattern
-
Adaptable for all skills: Simple enough for ambitious beginners, but offers room to play with color and layout for more experienced quilters.
-
Quick and satisfying finish: Things come together nicely, so you’ll feel the joy of progress every step of the way.
-
Showcases color: Whether you go bold and bright or soft and subtle, this pattern gives your palette room to shine.
When do we begin? July 21st! I know summer can be a busy time, so I wanted to give you plenty of time to choose or order your fabrics. I’ve also built a little wiggle room into the schedule since many of us will be juggling back-to-school around that time. You’ll have two full weeks to make your quilt blocks, plus a catch-up week to help you stay on track.
What do you need to participate? Just the pattern and a little enthusiasm! If you don’t have the Charlotte Quilt Pattern yet, use code CHARLOTTEQAL to grab a copy in the shop. The code is good until the Quiltalong starts.
I also recommend signing up for the QAL email list — it’s the best way to stay updated with weekly prompts, tips, and encouragement. You can sign up right here!
Not sure how to prepare? Next week I will be sharing mockups using the pattern as well as tips for picking fabrics that work well in this quilt. So if you have a request, let me know!
