Our Block of the Week this week is Odd Scraps Patchwork 🥰

Isn't this a charming name for a quilt block?

This is a traditional quilt design made up mostly of half-square triangle units, making it easy for most quilters. In this video tutorial, we walk you through the construction methods and then show you a couple of additional design options to play with the block’s possible looks.

It's the first day of fall 🍂 The perfect day to dig into one of our Classic Quilt September releases—First Frost.

There’s a nip in the air that calls for a fire in the hearth, a cup of hot chocolate, and a thick, cozy quilt to snuggle into.

Pull out your favorite homespun fabrics, flannels, or fall prints to re-create First Frost, which is just as comfortable on a hayride as it is on your sofa. This antique quilt features Jack-in-the-Pulpit blocks, a popular choice in the late 1800s, which is likely when this quilt was made.

We also love that the quiltmaker embroidered her name in the corner. Today, many quiltmakers include a quilt label on the back with their name, date, sometimes where they live, and for whom the quilt was made. This antique quilt shows that it is also okay to include information on the front.
