The Snowalong Sew-along has ended, but the block patterns are still available to purchase in my Etsy shop in sets of 2 or 3 or as a complete set. Please share pictures of your snowflakes. I'd love to see them, whenever they get made!
Welcome to the Snowalong Sew-along, where all snowflakes have six-fold symmetry! I’d love to have you join in to sew up a snowstorm!This will be a very relaxed party. You don't need to officially sign up anywhere. Download the patterns and make one block or make many, it’s up to you! If you miss a week, join us the next week. Pop in and pop out again, we’re really very informal here. If you don’t have a blog but want to participate, you can join the Snowalong Sew-along Facebook group and share there.
And just because I’m so excited about sewing snowflakes I learned to make a blog button just for this sew along! Feel free to grab the code from the box at the bottom of this page to add the button to your sidebar if you wish.

Love These going to try them!
ReplyDeleteSee you on Monday!
DeleteWould love to do this!
DeleteI will do this also. I do enjoy paper piecing. I find it easier sometimes that just the regular quilting patterns.
DeleteI love snowflakes and would love to play along. I am new to blogging so I may need some help as to how a link works. I'll check back on the 29th and hopefully it will be explained.
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree how do we do this?
ReplyDeleteI love snowflakes, quilted ones anyway and would love to join you...thanks. Is there anything we need to be prepared for these beautiful snowflakes?
ReplyDeleteI plan on about 1/8 yard of white per snowflake, and 1 yard of background fabric for every 5 blocks. You can figure amounts depending on how many snowflakes you plan to make. Other than that, maybe a cup of hot beverage to ward off the chill?
DeleteThis looks like great fun! Count me in.

I just luv your site!
ReplyDeleteLove them! What a cool idea.
ReplyDeleteCount me in. I too am new to the blogging world,please explain
ReplyDeleteHi Peggy. If you come back to this page on Monday, you'll be able to click on September 29 in the list above, and it will take you to the blog post for that day. In that post I will explain how to go get the free download. To join the linky party the next week, you'd write a post on your own blog. I'll have instructions that week about how to link for those of you who are new to it. It's easy, no computer code knowledge required.
DeleteI'm also thinking of starting a Facebook group so those of you without blogs who came this way via Facebook could share your pictures that way.
Please start a Facebook group for this. I will use that and am keen.
DeletePlease start the fb group. I'd love to join up as well...another Canadian Quilter wants to play. I love anything winter, Christmas and just fun.
DeleteLove them and definitely want to try if I can figure out how to get into the Snowalong Monday
ReplyDeleteAll you need to do to "get in" is come back here on Monday and click on September 29 to go to the relevant blog post. Participating is really just sewing as many or as few blocks as you like and sharing pictures. Sharing pictures is even optional, but it makes it more fun!
ReplyDeleteCount me in, I'm new to blogging, I came along from FB, but I'll check back on Monday and see what I can do. I love snowflakes and fun.
