Sewcialites 3 Block 13 is here! ✨⁠
⁠
This is the Back Porch block from Joanna @figtreeandco , and I sewed mine up in Correspondence with a little Dainty Daisy in Grass added in the center for a fun accent pop. 💚⁠
⁠
I love the sweet vintage feel of this block and those pretty floral corners so much! Can’t wait to see everyone’s versions this week.

Block 15 in the @RileyBlakeDesigns RBD Block Challenge is here! ✨⁠
⁠
This is the Center of Attention block by Heather @ankastreasures, and I love how it draws your eye right into the center—such a fun star design!⁠

I had so much fun with these soft, tan, rose, peachy and aqua tones—they really make the block pop.⁠
⁠
And we’re almost there… just ONE more block to go! 💕

Like a garden you get to keep forever 🌸⁠
⁠
The new Warm Wishes Quilt Pattern is full of color and charm, with rows of tall, happy blooms and playful stripe borders that bring everything together. It feels bright, fresh, and it`s so fun to sew!⁠
⁠
This one is 10" stacker friendly and a great pick for confident beginners who want something with a little personality. It looks just as good in soft florals as it does in bold prints.⁠
⁠
Find Warm Wishes in the shop!
