Can't quite believe that my firstborn is 25 today and that she's mine for only 1 more week!! Love this amazing girl who is beautiful inside and out! So glad her birthday quilt arrived on time too! #birthdaygirl #daughters #family #birthdayquilt

For the next 2 weeks in #kindredspiritsqal we are looking at #foundationpaperpiecing making an 18" Solidarity Star block. I love FPP and the wonderful points and shapes it achieves! Fingers crossed the ladies will enjoy it too! #communitysewing #quiltblocks #paperpiecing #patchworkandquilting #justjudedesigns

Delighted to announce that Essex Yarn Dyed Linen in Denim is now back in stock and available to purchase via our website! To celebrate I made a pretty Dresden Petal Pouch, in keeping with our Dresden theme in the #kindredspiritsqal this week. I partnered the Essex linen with @makoweruk #sashikofabrics. Check out the blog for a wee video on how to draft your own dresden petal blades! #essexyarndyedlinen #dresdenpetalpouch #dresdenquiltblock #zippypouch #wristletpouch #clutchpouch

Week 6 in the #kindredspiritsqal is all about dresdens! We will be making an 18" block with a 12 blade Dresden and also taking a look at a few other Dresden variations for added inspiration!! #dresdenquiltblock #dresdenblock #dresdenplate #communitysewing #patchworkandquilting #justjudedesigns

In the #kindredspiritsqal this week our ladies received a little diamond template for their #gardenbasket block making. Here are 2 other ways they can use the same template. A sweet Christmas Lemoyne Star candle mat (with y seams) and an English Paper Pieced star tray mat which has been appli-quilted. What fun! Lots more info on these projects on the blog today (link in bio). #diamondtemplate #quiltblocks #yseams #basketblock #quiltedmats #diamondmats #lemoynestar #englishpaperpiecing #epp #quiltedtraymat #appliquestar #justjudedesigns #makowerscandi

This week in The Kindred Spirits QAL we are making

This week in The Kindred Spirits QAL we are making 2 Garden Basket blocks. These include a few Y seams, our technique focus this week. They're not as scary as everyone makes them out to be! And we had our first zoom catchup yesterday in the QAL. So great to chat with folks and see some new faces! #loveourweecommunity #kindredspiritsqal #gardenbasketblocks #communitysewing #justjudedesigns #samplerquilt #patchworkandquilting

Week 4 in #kindredspiritsqal is The Friendship Star. We are making 2 of these smaller blocks, and our technique focus is #halfsquaretriangles . I love this little variation with the cute pinwheel in the centre. Traditionally, the Pioneer women would have embroidered their names in the centre squares when making these quilt gifts for friends who moved onto to new territories. Can't wait to see our kindred spirits' friendship stars! #friendshipstar #quiltblocks #sewingtogether #communitysewing #justjudedesigns #patchworkandquilting

Need a neutral? We have a selection of solid whites, ivory and creams across quilting cotton, yarn dyed linen/cotton mix and calico. Great for quilting projects, backgrounds and backings!

In keeping with our curved piecing theme in #kindredspiritsqal this week, I'm pleased to announce the release of 2 new #drunkardspath quilt patterns - Oriental Clams and Hippy Blush! These have both previously featured in quilting magazines and are now reformatted for general sale (including professionally artworked templates) in our online pattern shop (link in bio). Wishing you lots of curvy quilting fun! #quiltpatterns #drunkardspathquilts #justjudedesigns #orientalclamsquilt #hippyblushquilt
