Sweet Stars Sewalong

I’m so happy you’d like to join in with the Sweet Stars Sewalong!   Every Monday & Thursday in Septem­ber a whole bunch of fab­ulously tal­en­ted quilters will be shar­ing tips and tricks to make sew­ing the Sweet Stars quilt, and quilt­ing in gen­er­al, a breeze!  Read on for all the inform­a­tion you’ll need and links to the offi­cial blog­gers posts.

• Sweet Stars Pat­tern: To join in you’ll need a copy of the Sweet Stars pat­tern.   If you don’t already have a copy you can grab one from my online store by click­ing here.   I’ve also added the Sweet Stars Mini to my online store.   PDF pat­terns are avail­able now and paper pat­terns will be avail­able soon.

• Quilt Kits & Back­ing Sets: The Fat Quarter Shop has Sweet Stars Quilt Kits and Back­ing Sets avail­able now.  They also have yard­age avail­able for every one of the beau­ti­ful prints in Sedef’s Sweet Orch­ard col­lec­tion (which is what I used to make the Sweet Stars quilt).

• Ins­tagram Hasht­ags: Sew­ing with oth­er people online is heaps of fun and a great way to make new friends.   If you’re on Ins­tagram make sure to add the  hasht­ags #sweet­stars­al and #sweet­starsquilt to your photo so that every­one can see your pro­gress and, your fin­ished quilt.

• Prizes: The lovely folks at Riley Blake have kindly provided a Fat Quarter Bundle and a Fat Eighth Bundle of Sweet Orch­ard by Sedef Imer as prizes for two lucky people who join in with the sewalong.  To be in the run­ning for one of the bundles pic­tured you’ll need to post a pic­ture of your com­pleted blocks by the end of the sewalong on Ins­tagram using the hasht­ags above.   If you don’t have an Ins­tagram account you can send a photo dir­ect to me by email at  shequiltsalot@gmail.com or, much bet­ter idea because Ins­tagram is ser­i­ously great, you can sign up for an account by click­ing here.
