Corey Yoder's New Quilt Book Is Bringing Sunshine Home

Dr. Anya Sharma · 2026-10-23

There's something about a new quilt book that feels like opening a window on the first warm day of the year. Corey Yoder is doing exactly that this spring with her brand new book, Sunroom Sampler. And honestly? It couldn't come at a better time. Inside the book, you'll find a full sampler quilt plus three additional quilts. Every one of them is designed to fill your home with the warm vibrancy of her Sunroom fabric collection for Moda Fabrics. If you've followed Corey's work before, you already know she has a gift for making fabric feel like sunlight. This collection leans right into that. ### A Sneak Peek at What's Inside Five blocks from the book have already been shared as a preview, and they give you a good sense of the range you're working with. Some are sweet and simple. Others ask a little more of you. Together, they build the kind of sampler that keeps you curious from block to block. More teasers are on the way between now and Spring 2027, so if you like watching a quilt come together piece by piece, it's worth keeping an eye on the socials. The hashtag #SunroomSamplerQuiltBook is where the community is gathering, and it's a fun place to follow along. ### The Quilt Kit Takes the Guesswork Out Here's the part that saves you a headache. The Sunroom Sampler Quilt Kit is available to pre-order now, and it bundles a copy of the book with all the fabric you need for the quilt top and binding. - A copy of the Sunroom Sampler Quilt Book - Fabric for the full quilt top - Fabric for the binding No hunting down yardage. No second-guessing whether your local shop still has that one print. You open the box, and you're ready to sew. For anyone planning a sew-along in the new year, that's a real advantage. ### Why a Sampler Quilt Is Worth Your Time If you've mostly stuck to one pattern repeated over and over, a sampler is a gentle nudge out of your comfort zone. You try a block you'd never pick on your own. You learn a new technique without committing to an entire quilt of it. And by the end, you have something that tells a story instead of repeating a single line. As Corey puts it, the whole point is to brighten your home with warm vibrancy. That's a pretty good goal for a winter project, if you ask me. ### How to Get Started Pre-orders for both the book and the quilt kit are open now. If you want the book on its own, that's an option. If you'd rather have everything in one place, the kit is the way to go. Either way, ordering early means you're not scrambling when the fabric sells out, which tends to happen with collections this cheerful. Follow along on Facebook and Instagram for updates and more block previews. And if you sew along, share it. Half the fun of a quilt-along is seeing how differently everyone interprets the same set of blocks. Spring will be here before you know it. Might as well have your fabric ready.
