Why Christmas in July? Well, I don't know about you, but if I don't start my holiday projects now, I'll never finish in time. And since our winter collections have arrived, there's no reason not to get a jump on all the seasonal sewing!
It's perfect timing for the next Lori Holt Sew Along -- Let's Make a Snowman! This fine, frosty fellow in-the-making is pieced and appliqued using Lori's new Home Town Christmas collection. PRE ORDER is now open for this highly anticipated kit. By purchasing your kit at Corn Wagon, you're invited to attend a collaborative sewing day right here at our Schoolhouse, where Karen Averett can be available to offer assistance as we sew up the cutest cotton applique snowman you've ever seen! The free pattern download and sew along instructions will be available through Lori's Bee In My Bonnet blog August 26th. A big finish in October means you can have it quilted in time for Christmas!
Our kit includes a fat quarter bundle of the COMPLETE Home Town Holiday collection by Lori Holt (53 pcs.) and additional yardage as required by the pattern for piecing the 75" x 87" quilt top and binding. That's over 25 yards of this iconic holiday collection! As with most Lori Holt sew alongs, you'll have LOTS of fabric left over to play with -- in fact, we're including a darling FREE pattern featuring fat 1/8ths to help you use up all that Christmas cuteness!
Because this kit is being offered at a special PRE ORDER price, discounts do not apply. Kits are non-refundable. We will contact you as soon as kits are ready, mid August 2024 for pickup. Shipping is available at an additional charge.
The next installment of our new Quilt of the Month pattern series is here just in time to pair with our new Christmas collections! This month, Ramona Sorensen has designed a 10" precut friendly quilt with quick and easy stitch-n-flip corners. Layer Cake Snowballs for Christmas will finish at 70" x 81" for a fantastic throw-size gift! We have put together a few kits using the adorable Cozy Wonderland Layer Cake by Fancy That Design House paired with our favorite Nikko Topstitch woven by Diamond Textiles! Download the FREE PDF PATTERN, snag a KIT, then be sure to catch our stitch-n-flip tutorial releasing next week on our YouTube channel, where we will be piecing none other than this cute quilt!
What's that you say? You're not quite ready to think Christmas? Well, how about a winter-themed quilt that doesn't scream Christmas but would make a super-duper gift. The Aspen Gingham Quilt (below) creates a classic buffalo plaid in hues ranging from charcoal to ash. It's a free pattern and tutorial from Quilter's Candy! Made by sewing giant strip sets, it's a fast and fun project that any lover of the outdoors would be happy to snuggle under. I whipped this one up in an afternoon for my snowboarding boys (snow + mountains = happy guys) and now it's off to Dorene Cole for some E2E quilting magic! Kits are available now online and in-store for just $89.99! Let's get the gift sewing going!
...Oh, wouldn't this look great at the cabin!
