The next blocks in our 2024 Moonbeams Quilt Along are the life of the party! This month, we’re growing our quilts with the Tree of Life Blocks. Don’t miss this month’s Moonbeams Charity Cross Stitch release as well at the end of this post!
DOWNLOAD THE TREE OF LIFE BLOCK PATTERNS
We’re living for our fifth pattern release, the Tree of Life Blocks! You’ll need to make two for the quilt. We’re sewing with the Strawberry Lemonade collection designed by Sherri & Chelsi for Moda Fabrics. To make one just like ours, pick up the Moonbeams Quilt Kit. You can also download the fabric requirements to make this year’s charity quilt in your choice of fabrics. It’s never too late to join!
Sew Along with Kimberly!
Join us Friday, July 5 at 9 AM CT (7 AM PT/10 AM ET) on the Fat Quarter Shop YouTube Channel for a prerecorded tutorial of the Tree of Life Block with Kimberly Jolly!
Our Moonbeams Quilt and Cross Stitch Pattern benefit Make-a-Wish Central & South Texas.
As we soar through our 11th Annual Charity Quilt, 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. We encourage you to donate just $10 for the use of each free quilt pattern or a total of $50. For the cross stitch patterns, we are asking for a $20 donation. No amount is too small, and every bit counts. Fat Quarter Shop is proudly partnering with Moda Fabrics to match up to $30,000 in donations.
Fundraising Surprises for Moonbeams
We’re getting closer to our goal of $100,000 for Make-a-Wish, and when we reach $50,000 in donations, one lucky donor will receive a 1-hour virtual visit with Kimberly Jolly!
- To be entered, you will need to donate $25 or more to our Make-a-Wish campaign. If you have already donated $25 or more with your name and email (not anonymous), then you are automatically entered to win!
- Make sure that your donation is not anonymous so that we can contact you by email.
- When we reach $50,000, we will randomly select a qualifying donor and notify them by email.
Each milestone goal we hit with our Make-a-Wish fundraiser will unlock special offers and surprises! When you donate today, you’ll get us closer to our goal of granting ten wishes, and closer to awarding each special surprise.

BONUS 2– To be unlocked when we reach $50,000 before the end of July
