Sweet Freedom Patriot Quilts RESUMES w/Twist ;-)

Greetings Sweet Freedom Quilters,

ANNOUNCEMENT: Sweet Freedom Mystery RESUMES April, 2022!

Over the past few months, we have received some incredible feedback/suggestions/recommendations. As a result, we have decided to embrace many of your ideas going forward...Thank YOU!

FEEDBACK/SUGGESTIONS/RECOMMENDATIONS:

  • Finished Quilt Sizes - in the beginning, we thought that giving 'finished' quilt sizes would be too revealing and potentially 'spoil' the mystery, and possibly 'limit' the quilter's creative potentional in choosing 'How To' finish. We will now be providing Finished Quilt Sizes and variations in sizing options whenever possible. Quilter's Choice in 'finishing' their patriotic quilt(s) based on 'their' Standards of Excellence requirements, still applies ;-)
  • More Visual Aids for Cutting/Quilt Construction/Binding & Quilt Labeling - while most participants volunteer for various organizations with varying Standards Of Excellence, we will offer as many visual 'online' aids as they become available and/or applicable.
  • Optional/Alternative Cutting Choices - while we provide those options whenever possible, trying to provide ALL available cutting/sewing/finishing techniques would not be possible w/time & space constraints. Even though most quilters have discovered their 'favorite methods' for cutting/sewing, we will continue to offer Fun alternatives whenever we deem appropriate.
  • Fabric Requirements - done!
  • Downloadable Patterns - yep, we've got a few of those in store for you, too - including vide instructions ...Most are F R E E!

Continuing on w/latest Feedback/Suggestions/Requests - we will be launching a monthly quilt design w/Fun Twist!

Rather than keep the quilt design a 'mystery' until the last week of the month - we will release the quilt design 'first', while saving our personal fabric choices 'until' the Big Reveal later in the month!

Now, the 'mystery' will be - what fabric choices will 'each' quilter make throughout the month? Since we will be choosing various quilt designs and adapting them to a 'patriotic' theme, it will be interesting to see ALL the variations. 

Without further ado, our first design comes from Jordan Fabrics. Donna Jordan is an incredible quilt designer with ALL kinds of creative cutting/sewing ideas and an abundance of bubbly positive energy...Enjoy!
