Happy Friday Eve Reader!

How are things going? I've had a busy couple weeks. I went to the AQS show in CT and celebrated a birthday. Not to mention all the other real life things that continue to pop up!

Read on for some updates and a free quilt block!

AQS New England Quilt Week

I had a great time at the AQS New England show. I walked away thinking I have so much room for improvement in my quilting - lol! I'm hoping to have a recap video of our trip ready next week! Have you ever been to an AQS show? What did you think?

They had so many props to choose from, and this one really spoke to me, hahaha.

Inside My Sewing Room

I am keeping up with my 15-minute a day sewing. I've been posting updates inside the Clubhouse. I haven't gotten to my legit kit, but I am truly enjoying hand-sewing. I've been bringing my EPP kit with me all over the place. I did miss a single day - yesterday. I was so tired I fell asleep putting the kids to bed, and then I decided to go straight to bed - lol! Worth it!

Are you sewing 15-minutes a day this month with me? Let me know how it's going!

Take care of yourself, you deserve it!

May your bobbin always be full!

I'll be sharing wins, mistakes, numbers and lessons...

🧵My Ugliest Quilt (but it is my favorite)

Thursday Thread A weekly note from Tasha Quilts Happy Friday Eve! It's been about a month since my last newsletter. Life threw us an unexpected curveball when my husband was injured, and sewing had to take a back seat for a while. Thankfully, things are moving in the right direction, and I'm excited to get back into my normal routine around here. Sometimes life reminds you just how wonderful "boring" days really are. In this week's video I talk about a recent quilt I made. It won't be winning...

🧵Packing orders & featured bundles

Thursday Thread A weekly note from Tasha Quilts Happy Friday Eve! I have had the pleasure of packing up 12 orders these past two weeks! It is crazy how it feels like "this is something real" now! I'm also surprised how much I really enjoy packaging up each order! I wrap each package in tissue paper, because you are gifting yourself! I've really enjoyed experimenting in making stickers and fabric swatches to include in the packages. I already have so many more ideas and I can't wait to keep...
