Well, no, we aren’t cutting a rug, or really dancing at all for that matter. I mean you *could* dance and cut Twinkle Twinkle at the same time, but I really wouldn’t recommend it. LOL!
It is so exciting to get started on this quilt along. I know many of you are ready to go! I’ve seen quite a number of “I’m Attending” badges, and fabric pulls and coloring pages.
Let’s get a move on then.
This week’s Sponsor
Let’s all give a round of applause to Hobbs Bonded Fibers for sponsoring this our quilt along this week! Hobbs will be sending a Queens size Heirloom Cotton Batting with Scrim Batting to one of our lucky Concert Goers.
How do I win this awesome prize?
- Follow both hosts on Instagram: Lissa and Cassandra
- Follow our weekly sponsor on Instagram: Hobbs Batting
- Use the primary and weekly hashtags: #quiltconcert2023 and #quiltconcert2023cutting
- Tell us in your post if you are a US or international resident. This week’s prize is only available to US residents, but we have international prizes coming up in future weeks!
- Post a photo of your cut fabric using a public Instagram account by 11:59 Eastern on Thursday, June 15, 2023 (if you don’t want to make your primary account public, you can always create a second, public account to use for this quilt along and other projects like this)
- Winners will be selected by random drawing and will be contacted via Instagram direct message by Lissa and Cassandra. The winner must claim their prize by responding to the message with their mailing address within 48 hours. If the prize is not claimed at that time, we will select an alternate winner.
*Note – only the BACKGROUND fabrics need to be cut for the drawing. We know paper piecing can be cut many different ways, so you do not need to cut the block fabrics unless you want to*
Download the cutting instructions
Here they are! Remember to download these NOW! Next week when Block 1 is available, this pattern will no longer be free. But do not fear! It will be available for sale for $2.50, or you can purchase the complete pattern and don’t worry about getting the download in time.
The Cutting Instructions can now be purchased individually at The (not so) Dramatic Life Etsy
I look forward to seeing you all at tonight’s PJ Jam Zoom sew in! New this year are our Special Guest Stars!
Tonight we will welcome Sponsor Caroline Moore, and announce this week’s winner of Carolina’s Foundation Piecing Water Pen and Precision Tweezers, the perfect tools for Twinkle Twinkle.
Tonight’s zoom link went out in today’s newsletter. If you want to join in next week, be sure to sign up for my newsletters.
Happy Quilting!
Lovingly, Lissa
