Welcome, !
Quilt Circle Edition 2.7 – July 2026
Happy Summer, Quilt Circle!
Summer is in full swing, and we're looking forward to a fun and busy July! We'll be traveling to Sisters, Oregon, for a full week of teaching at A Quilter's Affair, and we'd love to see some of our Quilt Circle friends while we're there. We'll also be at The Stitchin' Post on Saturday, July 11, 2026, from 9:00–11:00 a.m., giving demonstrations. If you're in the area, please stop by to say hello, snap a selfie with us, and share in the quilting fun!
Back at home, this month's Block of the Month, Stars and Stripes, is the perfect summer project, featuring playful popsicles and classic patchwork stars. We can't wait to see your blocks come together and hope they inspire plenty of creative stitching all season long.
Wishing you a wonderful month filled with sunshine, quilting, and time spent with friends and family!
Xoxo,
Helen & Jenny
This month's Block of the Month, Stars and Stripes, celebrates summer with a fun combination of Bomb Pop-inspired popsicles and patchwork stars. The striped popsicles are created with simple curved shapes using WCR – Orange Lines, while the stars are pieced with traditional Half Square Triangles (HSTs) and Quarter Square Triangles (QSTs). This cheerful block blends playful curves with classic quilting techniques for a design that's as fun to sew as it is to display.

SKW's newest pattern, Busy Bee, is hitting shelves 7/13. QC members get an early sneak peek. This quilt captures the joy of nature in sunny yellows, warm honey tones, and fresh greens—or reimagine it in bold modern colors.
Perfect for spring decor, a nursery, or anyone who loves gardens and pollinators, this design celebrates the beauty, industry, and harmony of the natural world.
Meet the QCR Mini—the 5″ x 8″ mini version of the Quick Curve Ruler©. It makes cutting curves easy while reducing curved cutting and sewing time, and doubles as a square-up ruler. Multiple QCR Mini© patterns are available, and each ruler includes the Mini Runner pattern to get you started.
Party time! Enjoy this fun, quick, and easy project. Finishing at 28″ × 38″, Posh Party is part of our Posh Holiday series—seasonal, holiday-themed patterns that can all be made in a weekend. Made using the QCR Mini Ruler™.
