September Quilting Goals Update
September brought a wonderful mix of family visits, yard sale treasures, and major finishes to the sewing room! From Mitchell stopping by for ten days of mahjong and block layout help to scoring a stunning antique crazy quilt, it was a memorable month for making. Plus, I’m sharing how I did on my 2026 quilting habits—including finally finishing a pineapple quilt top that’s been waiting 10 years for its final touches, a cozy update on Daisy, and a sneak peek at a new design! Come take a look at how September shaped up and let me know how your own goals went.
August Quilting Goals Update
I’m finally back with a new Quilting Habit Update! I took a nice, relaxing break from making videos, but that doesn’t mean I’ve been sitting around doing nothing. 😂 There’s been a LOT happening behind the scenes, including a new quilt pattern, happy mail, fresh flowers, quilt tops heading to the longarmer, and some very exciting projects I can’t tell you about quite yet. There are lots of fun quilty things coming this fall, so stay tuned!
July Quilting Goals Update
What a crazy month! Come with me as I discuss my progress in my Quilting Habits and Goals in July. It was a busy one, and tricky to stay on track. I had some wins, losses, and some that were a little in between.
June Quilting Goals Update
It is officially summer, which means yard sale season is in full swing, the gardens are blooming, and we are halfway through the year! This month, preparation for our upcoming Christmas in July event turned my usual schedule upside down, but the quilting didn't stop. From clearing out fabric panels for a much-needed iPad pouch to cataloging two amazing new antique quilts, June was full of twists, turns, and a few "whomp-whomps." Intrigued? Read on to see the full monthly scoreboard!
May Quilting Goals Update
A three-day quilt retreat, 113 cataloged quilts, and a massive walking-foot quilting breakthrough! May was a highly productive (and beautifully messy) month for my quilting habits. Read the full update to see how the goals held up, what had to be seam-ripped, and how close I am to finishing a major modern block challenge.
April Quilting Goals Update
April brought springtime joy, steady quilting progress, and a few personal updates along the way. From Daisy’s recovery to hitting the halfway mark on my Tula Pink blocks and celebrating 7 million views, it’s been a full and memorable month.
March Quilting Goals Update
March means more sunshine, and I am here for it! Let’s dig in and see how I did on each of my quilting habits in March.
February Quilting Goals Update
February really is a great month to quilt, isn't it? It is cold, it is stormy, and it is the heart of quilting season! This month, I did great at some of my goals and struggled with others. Come along and see how I progressed (or didn't) in this month's quilting habits and goals.
January Quilting Goals Update
Even with the slower pace, I’ve actually been doing really well with my habits and goals, and I had some fun highlights along the way. From trying something totally new with a barn quilt painting class, to a little sewing room upgrade thanks to my wonderful husband, to celebrating my birthday month with a very exciting new serger—January definitely delivered some bright spots.
2026 Quilting Goals
Let’s set some goals for 2026! Just like 2024 and 2025, I have set five quilting habits and goals to tackle during the year. This helps keep me on track by having accountability and hopefully inspires you to set some goals, track them, and ultimately improve your own quilting life.
Setting Quilting Habits & Goals
This blog is a deeper look at that journey. Here, I share the actual quilting goals I set each year, how I create them, and the habits that help me follow through—without burnout or guilt. My hope is that by sharing what I’ve learned, you’ll feel inspired and equipped to set your own quilting goals and create habits that truly fit your life and creative style.
