A little sneak peek!
Here’s a close-up of my upcoming quilt pattern, Booked for the Holidays, releasing on August 5th! The gorgeous Christmas in Color fabric collection from @artgalleryfabrics was the perfect choice to bring this cozy, book-inspired holiday quilt to life.
I can’t wait to share the full quilt with you soon!
Are you already thinking about your holiday sewing, or are you still soaking up summer?

Chain piecing is the best!
Do you chain piece when you’re assembling a quilt? It’s one of my favorite ways to speed up the sewing process and keep everything moving along. If only we could sew as fast as a time-lapse video!
Booked for the Holidays will be available on August 5th! The cover quilt, made with the beautiful Christmas in Color collection by @artgalleryfabrics is the perfect combination of cozy holiday charm and bookish goodness. It’s sure to become a favorite for Christmas lovers and book lovers alike!
Do you prefer to chain piece, or do you sew one block at a time?

Pieces are cut and ready to sew!
I’m so excited to get started on my Booked for the Holidays quilt using the gorgeous Christmas in Color fabric collection from @artgalleryfabrics! This pattern is perfect for all the book lovers who dream of curling up under a cozy, holiday-themed quilt with a good book on a chilly winter day.
When it comes to cutting fabric, do you cut everything out before you start sewing, or do you work a little at a time?
I usually cut just enough for a few blocks, then sew as I go. I’m always too excited to see the quilt start coming together to wait until everything is cut!
Tell me your process in the comments—I always love seeing how other quilters stay organized!
Booked for the Holidays will be available on August 5th!
