  1. how can i get the swan pattern its not available on your page, only the rose pattern.
    thx

  2. I see what you mean Janet. When you click through to the free patterns page and click Swan, the rose pattern loads. I provided a thumbnail photo of the opened pattern, but if you try to enlarge it, you cannot read the instructions. I suggest you contact The Applique Society to see if they can correct it. From their Free Pattern page, I found their contact info:

    “If you have any questions regarding how these patterns may be used, please contact us at [email protected] and we will be happy to answer any questions you may have.”

    Also, it wouldn’t hurt to email the IT person there: [email protected].

    Let me know how it goes. –Scarlett

Smart Shopping for Quilters – Monday Precut Fabric Sales

Let’s be honest — quilting is a joy, but it can also be an investment. Fabric costs have crept up over the years, and many of us want to stretch our quilting budget as far as possible without compromising on quality or creativity. That’s why I love Fat Quarter Shop’s Precuts of the Week Monday sale. It’s smart shopping at its finest.

Each Monday, a single precut is offered at a special price. It might be a seasonal collection, a bestselling designer, or a new release you’ve been eyeing. Precuts are already efficient — coordinated, pre-cut, and ready to sew — and a discount on top of that makes them even more appealing.

If you’re looking for smart, budget-friendly quilt inspiration, these CraftGossip resources are must-reads:

What I appreciate most about precut deals is that they eliminate the overwhelm. Instead of comparing dozens of bundles, you get one curated offer to consider. It takes the hesitation out of buying and makes it easier to build your stash intentionally.

It’s also a fantastic way to shop ahead for holiday sewing, baby quilts, hostess gifts, and charity projects. Precuts lend themselves beautifully to fast, reliable patterns — especially strip quilts and charm square designs. If you need inspiration, this list is a great jumping-off point:

If you enjoy stretching your quilting dollars while still working with high-quality fabrics, add the Monday Precut sale to your routine. It’s a little moment of joy and practicality rolled into one.

Shop smart this Monday
