### Celebrating a Decade of Quilting Joy
Can you believe it? We're celebrating ten years of Sew Sampler. It's been an incredible journey since April 2016. We've shipped over 120 of those iconic blue boxes, each one filled with quilting goodness for our amazing members. Honestly, it's your creativity and love for this craft that have built this wonderful community. We are genuinely, sew grateful to share this milestone with you.
To mark this special occasion, we're doing something we've never done before. We're opening the Sew Sampler Vault.
### Unlocking the Sew Sampler Vault
For the first time ever, we're bringing back 12 of our most-requested, exclusive Sew Sampler quilt patterns. These are the ones you've been asking about. Starting in April 2026 and running through March 2027, we'll include one of these vault patterns as a printed bonus in every single monthly box. And it's at no extra cost to our members.
The exact pattern each month? That's going to stay a surprise until your blue box arrives at your door. Think of it as a little quilting mystery to keep things fun throughout the year. For friends who aren't members yet, you'll be able to shop each monthly Vault pattern separately as a paid PDF.
### Diving Into the Spooled Quilt Along
Now, let's talk about the 2026 Spooled Quilt Along. It's fully underway, and it's a whimsical, year-long journey. We're spinning off traditional block patterns to create something beautiful, full of wonder and joy. The next block we're piecing will build towards a gorgeous 54.5-inch square quilt.
The fabric collection, Petals and Polka Dots by Bunny Hill Designs, is just dreamy. It brings together graceful reds, soft pinks, and creamy neutrals that will absolutely keep your bobbins bobbing along. This quilt is going to steadily grow into a truly heartwarming keepsake.
If you're ready to jump in, the Spooled Quilt Kit and all the fabric requirements are available for purchase right now. Here’s a quick look at what you’ll need:
- A variety of red, pink, and cream prints from the Petals and Polka Dots collection.
- Background and accent fabrics as specified in the full kit details.
- All the standard quilting notions you love.
As one longtime quilter in our community put it, *'These quilt-alongs are more than a project; they're a connection to a whole group of people who get it.'*
