In this episode, Sherri and Chelsi welcome back Kimberly Jolly of Fat Quarter Shop to talk all about the Moonbeams Charity Quilt and Stitch Along. This year's Make-A-Wish charity quilt features Sherri and Chelsi's Strawberry Lemonade fabric. There is also a special navy print made especially for this quilt's background. This quilt pattern is free to anyone who wants to join along, but Kimberly hopes that everyone who gets the pattern will donate at least the cost of the pattern ($10) to the Make-A-Wish foundation. The quilt along will begin shortly after the Strawberry Lemonade fabric ships to stores. We anticipate it will begin in February or early March of 2024.
Sherri and Chelsi also ask Kimberly about her sewing routines and how she manages her personal sewing, her business, and her family time. Kimberly then shares her insights on the current state of the quilting industry and discusses some trends she sees heading into the new year. More information on the Moonbeams charity quilt, and a link to donate to the Make-A-Wish foundation, can be found below.
