1/25/2018

Hey Y'all! I gotta tell you about a Fat Quarter Shop quilt along that you have to get involved in!! It's going to be a ton of fun, and you'll get the opportunity to help children, and follow along with some of your favorite quilters on social media! It's call the 2018 Clementine Quilt Along and it is benefiting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Their mission is to save children by making their research and findings available to everyone AND by treating children at NO COST to the families, so they can focus on the one thing that matters – helping their children get better.

The Fat Quarter Shop is partnering with Moda Fabric once again, to bring you this beautiful quilt along to help benefit our community! Both Moda and The Fat Quarter Shop will match donations in the 2018 fundraiser - thats HUGE! The quilt block and finishing patterns will be available to download for FREE on the Clementine Quilt Along page on The Fat Quarter Shop blog the 25th of each month from January 2018 to July 2018.
We encourage you to donate $5 for the use of each FREE pattern.

I had the pleasure of working with the beautiful Mama's Cottage fabric line a few months ago while making the Banana Split Quilt Sample for The Fat Quarter Shop (pictured below), and I can tell you the fabric is absolutely fabulous! So if you got the Mama's Cottage kit for the Clementine Quilt, you will not be sorry! But, since I already have a beautiful quilt filled with all of these gorgeous colors....

I decided to switch things up a bit for my Clementine Quilt! I'm going to be using Voyage by Kate Spain for Moda Fabric for the quilt along, and I am super excited!! If you'd like to order, Voyage is also available through The Fat Quarter Shop, along with the Bella Solid Zen Grey that I picked for my background. www.fatquartershop.com/voyage-fat-quarter-bundle

Hey y'all,
I'm Gina Tell

Thanks for checking in with my blog. I started quilting around 2003 when I first moved to Austin Texas, and I knew absolutely nothing about a sewing machine! My journey started with a lot of phone calls to my BFF Jody, in Washington, because social media didn't really exist at that time. I will be telling some of the ridiculous stories of my early sewing days, some handy sewing tips, and sharing some of the fun sewing projects I do for the Fat Quarter Shop!
