Welcome to the Fat Quarter Shop 2019 charity quilt along, the Threadology Quilt Along! We are so excited to present the first block in this year’s quilt along, the Ohio Star Block (free pattern and video tutorial)! We are sold out of the Threadology Quilt Kit and Backing set so if you are just joining us, you can find the full fabric requirements to make a Threadology Quilt just like ours (we used the Little Snippets collection by Bonnie & Camille for Moda Fabrics). We will also be posting all the patterns and videos posted so far on our Threadology Quilt Along page!
Also, be sure to read to the bottom for exclusive information on extra settings we will be doing for the Threadology blocks this year as well as our Block 1 Giveaway!

Here is the video tutorial for the Ohio Star Block!
2019 Charity
Together, Fat Quarter Shop and Moda Fabrics will match up to $20,000 of your donations in 2019 to our Make-A-Wish Central & South Texas fundraiser, tripling each dollar you donate.
This year’s charity quilt along will benefit Make-A-Wish Central & South Texas! We are offering all of the patterns to make this quilt for free, we just ask that you donate $5 per pattern download to this amazing organization and 100% of the proceeds from the pattern downloads will be donated to Make-A-Wish Central & South Texas. We are partnering with Moda Fabrics once again, who has generously worked with us since we started doing these quilt alongs to benefit our community (see the Make-A-Wish video HERE).
Threadology Quilt Along
We have a great lineup of quilters quilting along with us! Our quilters used a mix of the quilt kit (we are sold out however you can find the full fabric requirements to make a Threadology Quilt just like ours using Little Snippets collection by Bonnie & Camille for Moda Fabrics) and their own fabrics to make their blocks. Click on each of the photos to see them up close and see what collections they used as well as tips and tricks they have to make the first block!
New Finishing Patterns for Threadology
We are so excited to be announcing that along with having the block patterns for Threadology, we will be releasing extra finishing patterns you can do with the blocks! When your donations reach the goals listed above ($3,500, $7,000 and $10,000), you will “unlock” a new pattern! We will release one extra setting pattern for you to transform your Threadology blocks into a new project!
We have surpassed our first goal of $3,500, our second goal of $7,000, AND our third goal of $10,000 in donations towards Make-A-Wish Central & South Texas! Here are the bonus patterns:
BONUS SETTING 2 – WALL HANGING
BONUS SETTING 3 – TABLE TOPPER
We are setting a stretch goal of $20,000 in donations to Make-A-Wish Central & South Texas! Keep donating and we will be unlocking one final free bonus pattern!

Thank you for giving to Make A Wish!!!
Hi the video just posted and the quilt kits are all sold out! Was there a something published about the new quilt along? I so sad 😔😔 to miss out on the kits.
Great video on the Ohio Star Block! THANK YOU, Kimberly & FQS staff!
I love this block!
Will more kits be made available?
I ordered the kit two days ago – submitted the order thinking it would come back Sold Out! But NO! It’s on its way! Excited!
I haven’t even been able to download my pattern and make a donation yet and here I see the first goal is already met. That is awesome!!! I’m happy to donate to such a worthy cause. Love this quilt too. Thank you!
Looks very interesting,how do I start getting a block
Make A Wish is such an awesome charity. Thank you
Kimberly, did you starch your fabrics for this quilt? If so, did you starch the half yard cuts in the kit prior to cutting them? Thank you so much in advance. I’m trying to up my piercing game, lol.
