Jessica Albright · 2026-07-22

Set the table and settle in for a feast of festive stitching with the Thanksgiving Row Sew Along, designed by Lori Holt of Bee in my Bonnet. This quilt blends her signature mix of novelty and traditional blocks, creating a project you'll be grateful for all year long. We're kicking things off in September 2026 with Lori's new Baked With Love collection, and together we'll cook up our most delicious quilt yet. ### What Makes This Quilt Special This quilt is perfect for intermediate quilters who enjoy working with small pieces and piecing both traditional and pictorial blocks. It's the kind of project you can really get lost in. The finished quilt measures 79.5 inches by 91.5 inches, a generous size for snuggling under or displaying on a bed. Kimberly is sewing hers with the Baked With Love collection by Lori Holt for Riley Blake Designs, and you can too. ### What You Need to Get Started Here are the key items to prepare so you're ready to sew along come September: - Thanksgiving Row Quilt Kit Reservation - Backing Set for the Thanksgiving Row Quilt Kit Reservation - Thanksgiving Row Quilt Downloadable PDF Quilt Pattern (also available as a paper pattern) - Thanksgiving Row Sew Along Fabric Requirements and Schedule ### The Sew Along Schedule The Thanksgiving Row Sew Along runs from September 2026 to August 2027.
