Welcome, !

This month’s Block of the Month is a fresh take on a classic- the X block. Our Curvy-X block utilizes the Wonder Curve Ruler (WCR) and is a quick project. Using an easy curve sewing method, it requires no pins, no centering & no snipping. If we could figure out a way to remove the ironing we would, but unfortunately you will still have to press your seams.

Join Jenny & Helen for the QC Exclusive tutorial on Snowball Corners. Snowball Corners refers to a technique where you sew a smaller square onto the corner of a larger square along a diagonal line, then trim and press to create a rounded “snowball” effect at the corner of your block.

We will demonstrate the 3 methods for achieving a snowball corner

1. Drawing a diagonal line

2. Using diagonal seam tape

3. The finger press method

This month we’re going to be holding our own March Madness tournament on Instagram and the Community page. Each day you’ll have the opportunity to vote on your favorite Sew Kind of Wonderful patterns. On the final day, your votes will reveal the #1 pattern. Will your favorite make the cut?? Tune in each day for special promos- available to Quilt Circle members only.

We’re reviving Rock the Block! As many of you may recall, in 2021 we released a series of blocks that focused on learning to use our 3 curved piecing rulers. Rock the Block has since been unavailable but it’s officially back and exclusive to Quilt Circle members! There are 10 different blocks in this series that are all sewn together to make a full quilt. We’ll be releasing 1 block per month for the next 10 months. As an added bonus, for the last month we’ll also release a brand new block as a setting border which will use our newest ruler, the Quick Straight Ruler. Rock the Block is available in the Exclusive Pattern Library for free and requires no credits to download.

Rock the Block # 1: Mesmerized

Mesmerized is our take on the traditional quilt block “card trick” and utilizes the Wonder Curve Ruler. 

Look what we found at the end of the rainbow!  The perfect shamrock mini quilt!  Just the right size for an easy weekend holiday project. Posh Lucky is available for download from the General Pattern Library for 1 credit. 

This 6" x 10" piecing ruler has colored lines and markings which makes it wonderfully simple to use while making a combination of curved blocks which are used repeatedly in WCR Patterns!

This month’s BOTM utilizes the WCR and can be purchased at a discounted price through the QC dashboard. Discount applies for members only.
