FAQs about the Sew Along

• Where Can I Get Fabric?

  I have linked all of the fabrics above, but Riley Blake Designs Basics are sold in many brick and mortar and online shops across the US.

• What Does the Finished Quilt Look Like?

  It’s a surprise! I will tell you all of the blocks are summer-themed.

• Can I Get the Blocks Without Signing Up For Emails?

  No, the simplest way for us to run this and keep it free is to deliver it via email. If you don’t want to stay subscribed afterward, you can easily unsubscribe (there’s an unsubscribe link in each email we send you).

• How Long Does It Run?

  The quilt along runs through August 15th. After that, the blocks will no longer be available. Some of the designers may offer them for sale individually, but that’s up to each designer.

I hope you’ll consider joining us! The fun starts June 23rd!
