KT 12 Days of Christmas Giveaways

Join the Holiday Fun!

Beginning this week, every Tuesday and Friday until Christmas, I'll be posting a new KT goodie to giveaway to a lucky winner on Instagram @lynnektq. All of us at KTQ want to thank you for your support and patience through this trying year. Don't belong to Instagram? Now's the time to join! There's so much quilting fun going on - news from Moda and their designers, to quilt-a-longs, to quilters inspiring us with their completed projects. It's another great way to connect to quilting friends far and wide. Follow me @lynnektq.

UPDDATE: Bittersweet Lane's arrival has been delayed due to Covid. Moda is working as fast as they can to ship the new line to quilt shops over the next few days/weeks. We hope to receive the fabric & precuts early next week, then have all the preorders cut, processed and shipped the first week of December. It's a little late, but worth the wait. Thanks for your patience.

All 'Round the Seasons

Don't miss out on our newest KT series, the All 'Round the Seasons Mini Table Treats Club. Our KT November Special kicks off a year of fun beginning with the Sweet Holly table topper. We'll continue every other month with the remaining 5 unique Mini Table Treats to decorate your home for the seasons. (All 'Round the Seasons MTT Club alternates shipment months with our Kit to Quilt Mystery Club.)

We have a few spots left for the MTT Club, so call the KT Quilt Shop today to sign up! 

Please note: purchasing the KT November Special does not automatically sign you up for the Club. Robert will need a little information to enable autoship.

20 Years of KTQ - Part #21

 

Part #21 Pieced Border

In our year-long marathon, we're almost to the finish line! This week's pieced border uses all the leftover fabrics from the quilt to make a simple, scrappy border to tie it all together. It's an easy cornered block with assorted darks for the large squares and assorted tans for the connecting corner squares. Refer to your Connecting Corner Info page for more details. 

 

I found pressing the corner triangles as shown, after trimming the seam allowance, allowed for opposing seams when sewing the blocks together in a row. You could also press the seams open. Try a few of your own and decide what works best for you. 

 

As you're laying out the pieced border blocks in a row, turning every other one 90 degrees, note the position of the corner blocks.

 

Watch for border fabrics and a couple of extra goodies in your last shipment after Thanksgiving.

 

Talk soon.

 

KT November Special

 All 'Round the Seasons + Sweet Holly MTT

Our KT November Special brings a bit of holiday cheer to your mailbox. We bundled my Sweet Holly Mini Table Treat kit and the All 'Round the Seasons booklet. The kit includes all the fabrics for the table topper front, back, binding and appliques, plus buttons. (Batting & fusible web not included.) The booklet and kit are only $35 with FREE SHIPPING! That's a savings of over $14 with shipping. 

The Sweet Holly Mini Table Treat is a sweet addition to your home. With my technique, two circles are layered with batting and backing, then machine quilted in an easy grid pattern. Add the simple-to-cut fusible appliques, topstitch, bind and you're done in just a few hours. Not only do Mini Table Treats add a fun holiday touch to your home decor, they make great gifts!

 

Want even more of a good thing? Call the KT Quilt Shop and sign up for our All 'Round the Seasons Club. The KT November Special is the first installment of our Club. Then, every other month for a year (5 more times), you'll receive a kit for another one of my seasonal Mini Table Treats for only $25+$5 shipping. You can order the KT November Special HERE, but you have to call the store to sign up for the Club and continue receiving kits throughout the year.

I'm planning a Facebook Live event to demonstrate how to cut the round circles with the Cut-a-Round ruler and share tips for quick results.Watch here for more info.
