 Reindeer Ridge Quilt Along – Month 5 – Reindeer

 Reindeer Ridge Quilt Along – Month 5 – Reindeer

Welcome to Month 5 of the Reindeer Ridge Quilt Along! This is another one of my favorite months because we'll be making these adorable reindeer! If you don't want to make the entire quilt, I also think these would make really cool pillows. This month builds upon some skills we've already done, but it's a little bit different in terms of piecing, so I'll walk you through it a bit. This section is not hard to sew, but requires lots of paying attention. It is easy to get pieces flipped the … [Read more...]

Reindeer Ridge Quilt Along – Month 4 – Flying Geese and Plus blocks

Happy April friends!! Welcome to month 4 of the Reindeer Ridge quilt along. I hope your quilt sections have been coming together without issue! Last month's fair isle chains were a big one. This month we are working on section 4, flying geese, and section 5, plus blocks. These should be a lot faster to get through! Below I have a few tips on each section, along with a video walking you through how to make 4 at a time flying geese. These blocks are pretty straight forward, so there's not a lot to … [Read more...]

Reindeer Ridge Quilt Along – Month 3 – Fair Isle Chain

Reindeer Ridge Quilt Along – Month 3 – Fair Isle Chain

Hello quilt-alongers! I hope you have been enjoying making this quilt so far. I am extra excited about this month, because it's the first month we get a large section of the quilt done! I love the magic of sewing the strips together and watching them transform into a fair isle chain. Last month, we completed the first half of Section 3, which was sewing the long strip sets together. Now it is time to sub-cut those strips into columns and re-arrange them to create our design. I'll show … [Read more...]

Reindeer Ridge Quilt Along – Month 2 – Sewing Sections 1-2 and part of 3

Reindeer Ridge Quilt Along – Month 2 – Sewing Sections 1-2 and part of 3

I’m so excited to start sewing this month!! If you didn’t get all your fabric cut last month, you can catch up this month, or just cut as we go. This month, we are tackling Sections 1 and 2 and sewing the strips together for the start of Section 3.  I wanted to start our sewing time by mentioning that the seam allowance for this pattern is always ¼”. If you are a newer sewist, I recommend taking some fabric scraps and sewing them together, then measuring to make sure you have a ¼” seam. … [Read more...]

Reindeer Ridge Quilt Along – Month 1 – Cutting Fabric

Happy New Year and welcome to the official start of the Reindeer Ridge Quilt Along! If you haven’t read the pre-quilt along post, I recommend reading that first. It has lots of info about the quilt along and ideas for colors and layout.  I’m so excited you are here to join in for this quilt along! This month is all about cutting (yay?!). I’ll admit cutting is not my favorite part of the quilting experience, BUT I am much happier when I get everything cut out first, and then I can … [Read more...]

Welcome to the Reindeer Ridge Quilt Along

Welcome to the Reindeer Ridge Quilt Along! Although we haven’t officially started sewing (we'll start January 3!), I like to give myself plenty of time to plan colors and purchase fabric. So let’s start the sew along planning today!  Today, I’ll walk you through my process of choosing colors, and hopefully by the end, we’ll all have our fabrics picked out!! High five! Reindeer Ridge uses 5 colors. You can, of course, get creative and add more and change things up. For this quilt … [Read more...]
