Favorite Download: Sew in Love Free Pattern
This week’s most-loved download was the Sew in Love quilt pattern by Jina Barney, courtesy of Riley Blake Designs — and it’s easy to see why. With bold prints, crisp white accents, and 16" strip-pieced blocks, this 64" x 64" throw comes together beautifully for confident beginners.
The pattern includes full cutting instructions and step-by-step guidance for assembling the Lovey Dovey blocks. It’s perfect for scrap-friendly sewing, fat quarter projects, Valentine’s quilts, or anyone who loves modern quilting with clean lines and bright color.
This was one of five new free projects released in our Chick Picks newsletter this month. You can download the pattern HERE.

Favorite Fat Quarter Bundle: Home Sweet Home by Timeless Treasures
You were definitely thinking spring this week! The Home Sweet Home Fat Quarter Bundle from Timeless Treasures flew off our shelves with its soft pastel palette and sweet floral-and-bee theme.
This bundle includes 8 coordinated fat quarters (approximately 18" x 21" each), making it ideal for baby quilts, spring table runners, seasonal wall hangings, or stash building. The gentle colors and charming prints feel like the first warm breeze after winter — fresh, light, and full of possibility.
Favorite Quilt Kit: First Blooms Chain Letter
The First Blooms Chain Letter Quilt Kit (Only One Left!) was this week’s standout kit — and there’s only one left. This 71 7/8" square quilt makes a gorgeous throw or guest-bed quilt and features the vibrant First Blooms collection.
The kit includes all fabric for the quilt top and binding, plus the Chain Letter pattern by Anka’s Treasures. It’s beginner-friendly but visually striking, with that classic chain movement that gives the quilt beautiful flow.
You’ll just need backing fabric:
• 4½ yards of 44/45" wide fabric, or
• 2 1/8 yards of 108" wide backing
Favorite Video: First Bloom Chain Letter Reveal
Our most-watched video this week was the unveiling of our brand-new First Bloom Chain Letter store sample — and she truly is a beauty. At 72" square, this quilt bursts with bright florals, happy color, and classic chain movement that makes the design come alive.
In the video, we also shared:
• Extrovert – a fun, colorful table runner
• Scrappy-Do – perfect for digging into your scraps
• Three coordinating fat quarter bundles
And yes… Mariposa officially sold out (thank you!) but the pattern is still available.
After you watch, tell us — would you make the full quilt, a runner, or something scrappy and fun?
