Let It Shine Quilt - Quilt Along Details
Let It Shine Quilt Along - Details!
Welcome! I’m so thrilled to be hosting my first ever Quilt Along. The Let It Shine Quilt is such a special quilt with endless fabric possibilities. I knew right away I wanted to launch a Quilt Along to make this fun quilt with you all!
Who: You, me, and other quilters
What: A four week Quilt Along in which we complete a part of the quilt each week, breaking the pattern down into small steps. By the end, you'll have a lovely quilt top finished!
When: Week 1 kicks off April 14, and the last week will begin May 5.
Where: I will send Quilt Along info to your inbox each week, so there's no need to sign up formally! You don't need any social media to participate in the QAL. However, to enter for prizes, you will need to have a public Instagram account so you can share photos as prize entries.
Why: Quilting is fun! And it's even better when we do it together. Plus, you'll learn some helpful tips by following the QAL.
What do you need to do? Purchase a copy of the Let It Shine pattern either as a PDF or as a paper copy.

Schedule
I know how the end of the school year seems to snowball full of activities. I want to be conscious of that and planned a four week Quilt Along that will be sandwiched right between those ending winter days and warm spring days. Feel free to choose your quilt size and version from the pattern and follow along with each week. I will be making a Throw size quilt using 5 fabrics without a set background to highlight the scrappy nature this pattern has to offer.
Week 1: Cutting fabric
Week 2: Assembling small units
Week 3: Assembling blocks
Week 4: Quilt top assembly
