Family Favorites Quilt Along: Brightly Sampler Kickoff!

We are so excited to be co-hosting the Family Favorites quilt along with Sherri & Chelsi! The Brightly Sampler Quilt uses five of Chelsi’s all-time favorite 12-inch blocks and features their latest fabric collection, Laguna Sunrise. This collection is based on Chelsi’s floral drawings colored in a sunrise palette. Chelsi’s blocks stitched in Laguna Sunrise make a sampler that does indeed shine brightly. 

Fabric Requirements

Kimberly will be sewing with the Brightly Sampler Quilt Kit and Backing Set which feature the Laguna Sunrise collection by Sherri & Chelsi. Keep an eye on the A Quilting Life Blog and YouTube channel for all the details on Sherri and Chelsi’s quilts.

If you would like to sew using your own fabric, download the free Brightly Sampler Quilt Fabric Requirements and Coloring Sheet to help you plan your quilt. We can’t wait to see how you all bring these versatile blocks to life!

Quilt Along Schedule

The Family Favorites Quilt Along with Sherri and Chelsi will run for 11 months, ending in August 2025. Each month, we will be making two blocks from the Family Favorites Book, and in the last month, we will tackle the sashing and finishing.

To participate in the Family Favorites Quilt Along, all you have to do is grab your copy of the Family Favorites Book, gather your supplies, and follow the hashtag #FamilyFavoritesQAL! You can also quilt along with Sherri and Chelsi on their YouTube Channel and A Quilting Life Blog where they will be sharing their progress and tips for sewing the blocks.
