2021 Serendipity Quilt Along - Release 7 - The Jolly Jabber Quilting Blog

Welcome back to the Fat Quarter Shop 2021 Charity Quilt Along, Serendipity! Today we’re sharing the last row of the quilt, the Jackpot Row. Let’s gather our supplies and get started!

DOWNLOAD RELEASE SEVEN PATTERN

For this row you have the option to use a traditional piecing method for making Square in a Square or to use the 3” Square-in-a-Square Foundation Papers. Our pattern gives instructions for both. We’re sewing with the Spring Brook fabric collection designed by Corey Yoder for Moda Fabrics. If you’re sewing with something different, here are the fabric requirements to make this year’s charity quilt.

Sew Along with Kimberly!

On Monday, June 21 at 9am CST, tune in to the Fat Quarter Shop YouTube Channel to sew along with Kimberly on Release 7!

Our Serendipity Quilt and Cross Stitch Chart benefit Make-a-Wish Central & South Texas.

Fat Quarter Shop is happy to be partnering with Moda Fabrics to match up to $30,000 in donations for this worthy cause.

We continue to be amazed by the generosity of this sewing community and inspired by the stories of the children who have been granted life-changing Wishes. How does this fundraiser work? We offer the Serendipity patterns as FREE downloads during the event for a suggested donation of $5 each to our Make-A-Wish Central & South Texas campaign. Or feel free to make a larger, one-time donation of $50. No amount is too small and every bit counts.
