✂️ Corrected Quilt Kit Links; I Only Cried Once ;)


Hello Reader,

I'm so sorry that the first email was missing the correct link; I was just so excited to share the kits that I missed a few items. Thanks for your patience!

August brings the State Fair to Kentucky, and it has inspired the theme for our August kits, Blue Ribbon!

The August Polka Dot Drop

Even if you never win a blue ribbon at the fair, it's ok, because we've included a Blue Ribbon sticker in this month's quilt kit!

Blue Ribbon Shortcut Precut Quilt Kit & Quilt Pattern

Make a prize‑worthy quilt without ever setting foot in the fairgrounds! Our Blue Ribbon Shortcut Quilt Kit features the Blue Ribbon Shortcut quilt pattern, designed to be sewn entirely with precut fabrics. The kit included fabrics from my Bluegrass Charm collection with Riley Blake.

Finished Quilt Size: 59 1/2” x 76 1/2”

Kit Contents: Fabric and Pattern

  • One 5” Precut Stack of Sparkler Fabric in White (42 pieces)
  • One 10” Precut Stack of Sparkler Fabric in White (42 pieces)
  • 2 Additional 5” x 5” precut fabric pieces of Bluegrass Charm Fabric
  • 2/3 Yard Fabric for Binding (White with Navy Stripe from Bluegrass Charm)
  • Printed Copy of the Blue Ribbon Shortcut Quilt pattern
  • Blue Ribbon Sewing Machine Sticker

Quantities are limited, and each kit drops on the first Monday of the month at 6 pm EST. Once they’re gone, they’re gone—so don’t let this month’s project slip through your fingers!
