Make Your First Patchwork Quilt!

Our new book and sew-along* experience, One Stitch at a Time, is designed to take the non-quilter through all the essential steps in making a patchwork quilt. In 4 weeks, we'll show you how to prep your machine, cut your fabric, piece your quilt, and attach your borders. 

If you've ever said, "I wish I could make quilts!", this book and sew-along were designed with you in mind. Let us show you how to become a quilter!

*Sew-along will be hosted by Lindley General Store.

What's included:

  • One Stitch at a Time wire-bound book
  • Video lessons covering topics like sewing a  ¼" seam, winding a bobbin, fixing mistakes, etc
  • Weekly sew-along emails with tips and tricks.
  • Dedicated support email where you can ask all your questions
  • Private FB group where you can share your progress and celebrate other quilters!

The title, One Stitch at a Time, comes from the idea that nothing is a whole task. Each quilt, even a really big quilt, is made through a series of smaller, more manageble tasks.

As a beginner, it can be so easy to look at someone else's whole, finished quilt, and think it impossible to do. But whoever made that quilt you're intimidated by, started with one cut and then another and then one stitch and then another. In little, bite-sized tasks, you too, can make a quilt. A perfectly sized, 50" x 55" lap quilt to be specific.

The book is a combination of tutorial and quilt pattern designed to guide you through the steps of precision quilting. You'll begin this book/sew-along as a non-quilter and complete it as not only a quilter but the owner of your very own patchwork quilt.

Table of Contents:

  • Introduction
  • Tools and Supples
  • Getting Started
  • Sewing Machine 101
