December Sew Along with Villa Rosa Designs Accessory Rose Card Patterns

Hello Quilty Friends!

Happy Thanksgiving to you!

I will keep this post short and sweet so you can get back to your family and friends. And pie, don’t forget the pie. With lots and lots of whipped topping. Yum!

You can find my FREE Pieced Turkey Quilt Block Tutorial from 2022 HERE.

Let’s jump right in!

For the month of December, I thought it would be fun to do a VRD Sew Along with some of our Accessory Rose Cards. Are you familiar with our accessory patterns? They are quick and fun small projects to use up your stash…..or an excuse to head to your local quilt shop and buy more fabric just for these great little projects. You can find all of our current accessory patterns HERE.

They make great last-minute gifts you can whip up in a hurry for family and friends……or even just for yourself. Who doesn’t love an excuse to do some holiday sewing in December, when everything is so fast-paced? We all need to slow down a little bit and get a touch of sewing in, don’t you think? And you may just be seeing more smaller accessory patterns coming in 2024 — think mug rugs, bags, place mats, pillows, and more.

Speaking of 2024, we certainly have some exciting things coming for Villa Rosa Designs! Watch for our second Fast and (Even More) Fun Blog Hop coming in January/February 2024. I am still working on the dates right now, so stay tuned….

So, let’s keep this post moving!

Accessory Sew Along

What’s a Sew Along, anyway? It’s simply an opportunity for quilters and sewists to sew the same projects together from wherever they are. The magical Internet makes it so easy for us to sew together without getting together physically. We will all sew the same project each week and post our photos on the Villa Rosa Designs Facebook group. Sounds like fun, doesn’t it?

I have selected 5 patterns for us to make together for the month of December. Here are the dates and the projects along with the links to purchase the patterns at Villa Rosa Designs. Maybe you have a few already and only need certain ones. If so, just follow the individual links to the patterns you need below OR you can grab the whole set of 5 patterns for the special price of $8.95 HERE. Don’t forget — shipping is always free for patterns!

What are you waiting for? Get your patterns now and start organizing your fabric for each of the projects so we can SEW ALONG together, starting next Thursday, December 2nd.

November 30th — Amanda Jane (7 Pocket Apron)

December 7th — Savannah Jane (Charm Square Patchwork Scarf)

December 14th — Catrina Jane (Rose Card 2 Pocket Pattern Keeper)

December 21st — Olivia Jane (Charm Square Tote Bag)

December 28th — Petula Jane (Roll and Go Place Mat and Napkin)

I hope you’ll join us for some much-needed sewing fun in December! And ask a quilting/sewing friend, so you can double your fun! If you haven’t joined our Facebook group, please do so now — that way we can all post photos of our Sew Along projects, give each other high fives, and oohh and aahh over each other’s fabric choices for each project! You can find our FB group HERE.

Here’s to a December filled with sewing and giving. Love and laughter. And cookies. We must have cookies….

Sew. Laugh. Repeat.
