I thought I would tell you about
something fun that I'm doing on
It's a little Christmas quilt
sew along using my book
Quilty Fun as our manual.
Basically what I did is
just grab a bunch of fabrics
from my stash and added a
few Christmas prints in as well…
and started sewing blocks from
Quilty Fun that work
perfectly for Christmas!
I've introduced and will introduce
a few new blocks
that I have designed
especially for this sew along
that are not in the book.
I have cutting and tutorials
on my Instagram feed for those blocks.
For those who are new to
or haven't joined yet…
Please do!
You just need to quickly
create an Instagram account
and then
you can join up
with us and sew along:)
If you need help…
ask your kids!!!
It's super easy and fun:)
If you want to make new blocks
designed by me like
"Mr. Cookie" shown below
joining up is how you
access my Instagram tutorial.
You can find me on Instagram by
or on the the link above
on the right side of my blog or...
Just type in my user name
on the Instagram search bar…
(my user name is beelori1)
and follow me by simply
clicking on the word
Once you are following me…
you will see every time that I post or
add another block to the sew along.
When you do find me…
this is what my
profile page looks like.
Let me tell you how to
find my tutorials
from my profile page.
I have a picture on my
profile page that
represents each post.
All you have to do is scroll down
and you will see all
of my pictures that I have posted.
The very first post
is at the bottom…
and my very latest post
is at the top left
which you can see
is my "Vintagey Ornament"
block for the sew along.
When you see a photo
that you would like to
know more about,
simply click or touch that photo
and that post will pop right up
along with all of my instructions
as well as everyone
else's comments and questions
about that particular post.
Another thing that is fun
about the sew along is
seeing everyone else's pictures
of their blocks all in one place.
When anyone posts a block
they have sewn for the
sew along they add
#haveyourselfaquiltylittlechristmas
to their post.
What this does is add their photo
along with their post
onto the same page as
all of the others who
have used the same #
with that title.
You can scroll down and
look at them all
for inspiration and even
click onto their picture
to bring up their post
to read more about it.
It's a lot of fun and
there is a huge supportive
quilting community there:)
If you don't already have
a copy of my book
that we are using
for the sew along
you can get one
Have a quilty kind of day
and I hope to see you
on Instagram!
