Read on to see our fabulous sponsors, and get a hint of what is coming! Come play along, and if you have a blog, grab the graphic below, post it on your blog, and share your progress with the projects.
But first, from now until Oct 13th, get the digital version of Fons and Porter’s Love of Quilting Fall 2026 issue for just $5.00!! This is the issue that has my latest published design, perfect for scrappy autumn quilting – Cozy Fireside. Click HERE. Or get the Print Version for $10 along with other print issues are also on sale.
Now, to Fall Fortnight! We’ll have a fun quilt along using your scraps in two installments to make an oversize table topper, or you can add rows for a throw size quilt. Then we’ll set an autumn table, cook an autumn meal, stitch a wool project, stamp some cards and have fun with embroidery. This event will have a special blog hop as well, and a charity component to spread fall warmth and cheer to those who live alone. I can’t wait to get started!
