We are proud to present BLOCK Magazine, Issue 2 of Volume 11! With this new volume of Block Magazine, we’re exploring the themes of embellishing projects, making each one a standout work of art. We’re taking a deep dive into the world of embroidery by discussing how to choose the perfect thread for your fabric creations!

With our roots in the past and hearts in the present, we’re looking at the art of quilting in an ever-changing world. Let’s find new ways to embrace the spirit of early quilting bees with our craft, and find deeper meaning in those stitches! We’re also sharing some tips to help you stitch up beautiful throw pillows for your home, and shining a spotlight on the incredible creations from our Community Connection Challenge.

We're thrilled to introduce you to the fabulous Michelle Freedman, whose designs for Maywood Studios are nostalgic with a modern flair. And if you're in the market for some seriously swoon-worthy sewing tools, look no further than Jenny's Signature Tool Set—a limited-edition metal toolbox filled with all the sewing essentials you never knew you needed.

Get ready to sew up a storm with projects like the quilted star flower tote bag, Jenny's kaleidoscope quilt, and a freestyle sunset wall hanging that will brighten up any room. Plus, we've got plenty of summertime quilts to help you kick off the season in style!

So grab your scissors, fire up your sewing machine, and join us on another quilty adventure. We're SEW excited to see what you create!
