Editorial Team · 2026-11-05

The new year is basically here, and you know what that means—it's time to line up another year of quilty adventures. I've got a stack of projects I'm genuinely excited to start, and a few I'm determined to actually finish. If you want the full rundown, tune in tomorrow, November 6th, 2026, to the Fat Quarter Shop YouTube Channel. I'll be sharing all my sewing plans for the year ahead in a fun Friday livestream. Here's what's on my cutting table for 2027. ### Sweet Woven Stars Sampler – 2027 Scrap Quilt **When:** Throughout 2027 This one's all about scraps, and I love that. I'm using each fabric only once in shades of pink, green, blue, and yellow—no dark, brown, or gray fabrics allowed. It keeps the whole quilt feeling light and cheerful. **Supplies:** - Sweet Woven Stars 2027 Scrap Quilt Pattern FREE PDF - Woven Star Quilt Block Foundation Paper Pad Set - Background Fabric: Coriander Seeds White on White X Print Yardage (SKU# 29146-11) **Finished size:** 60.5" x 78.5" You can find out more on the Jolly Jabber Blog. ### A Quilting Life Block of the Month 2027 **When:** January – December 2027 A full year of blocks.
