Make a Quilter Happy in Three Ways

And Your Weekly Quilt Block

I have a fourth way to make a Quilter happy,
it’s a Quilt Block Pattern.

My weekly Quilt Block Pattern is Below

Three ways to Make a Quilter Happy ! 

Set the Mood
Start with good lighting—nothing kills the mood faster than squinting at tiny stitches in a shadowy corner. Add your favorite playlist, audiobook, or true crime podcast (because what’s better than solving mysteries while sewing?). Bonus points if you have a mug of coffee or brew a cup of tea. Suddenly, quilting feels like a cozy retreat instead of just a to-do list item.

Snack Strategically – Reaching a bit here…but?
No, you don’t need crumbs in your fabric, but let’s face it: quilting burns mental energy, and snacks are fuel. Keep a stash of easy-to-eat treats nearby—think chocolate, nuts, or anything that won’t turn your quilt into a grease rag. Pair it with a drink you love, and you’ll feel like you’re at a quilting spa.

Celebrate the Little Wins
Finished a tricky block? Reward yourself! Take a picture, post it online, or do a happy dance. Nobody’s perfect, and your quilting adventures, mistakes and all are part of the story. After all, happy quilters make the best quilts!

My Weekly Quilt Block Pattern for you.  Today, let’s all about triangles and squares. . This quilt block has a finished size of eight inches by eight inches. Here are my tutorials,

Building on a Square Quilt Block

Make a Square Quilt Block

The first quilt block I shared was a simple quilt pattern
and  today it’s just about moving squares around a bit with color and using smaller four-patch quilt blocks.
Please don’t overthink cutting squares 1 1/2″, do it the same as other sizes, sew and press as you go.

Happy New Year 2025, let’s make it a Year of Happy

Little Quilt Block Pattern for YOU to Make!

As 2024 wraps up, it’s hard not to reflect on a year that felt like a marathon through the medical wing of life. Quilt Pattern for you to make below too!

Husbands hospital stays and major surgeries, we have officially earned a lifetime membership to the “Strongest People” club.
January 2025 Quilt Pattern NOW at my Etsy Shop

While it wasn’t the year  I imagined, but we powered through. Leaving this chapter behind feels fantastic, but mostly it’s a chance to breathe, heal, and look ahead. I took many notes of all the testing and process of Husbands 2/3 pancreas and spleen removal. I am working on putting it into book form or into handbook form, I hope to sale some and then again…it’s a bit of a surgery…and wish all going through health issues a hug of love.

So here’s to closing the door on a tough but transformative 2024. We have done the hard part, and now it’s time to embrace a new year filled with brighter days, fewer hospital visits, and a whole lot more joy. Cheers to resilience, healing, and the hopeful possibilities of what’s ahead!

Each year I try to work into my daily life a word, and this year it’s HAPPY.
Happy to laugh, happy to quilt, happy to have health and just happy to just be. Join me in Happiness. And the best happiness? A Quilt Ladies quilt block !

Birthday and February Quilt Pattern

February Quilt Pattern and Free Table Topper Quilt

With so much going on, I kind of missed my birthday… but I have reached the ripe old age of 66 and some days everything seems to hurt. My Florida swim body now feels a bit saggy, and I have learned a new morning routine of time to get everything moving again.

I have been trying to have self-care be more than a bubble bath. Taking walks, laughing quilting, drawing, read or just being, whatever helps me find peace within yourself and relaxes your mind. 

Here is my February Quilt Pattern, shown in red, but any colors and white will work too. The Quilt Pattern is here At The Quilt Ladies Shop and in my book All in ONE Year Quilt Patterns

I have added one of my table topper quilt patterns for you to make too, pictured below
