**Next Block Wednesday **
This sew along theme is inspired by a 'Summer Soiree'.
soi·rée /swäˈrā/
"The definition of a soirée is a gathering or get-together, especially a posh or elegant one. A soiree is an elegant and intimate affair. It is an evening party held in a private house. While ambient music plays, guests engage in a variety of private conversation."
Doesn't that sounds like fun for a summer night? Each week our block will have a theme of something to do with an evening party!

***Fabric I'm using***
I'm using the Figs & Shirtings fat quarter bundle + background fabric from my friend Joanna. You will have some left over. I am so excited about using this fabric! I love that splash of black!
You do not have to use the same fabric as me. You can use any fabric you like
- Figs & Shirtings fabric, pick up your favorite for backing! - https://shrsl.com/2ymo4
- Background for Summer Soiree https://shrsl.com/2ymo6

Help! I’ve lost the 6/2 post with finishing details for Home Is.
Can someone send me the link?
Thanks.
Thankyou for the mini quilt tutorial. I’m getting ready to start my first one, and I needed it. 🤗
Hi! My favorite color to sew with is deep red; the next is shades of blue. I learn so much from you. Thank you, Pat!
MY favorite color is purple!
I love your projects!!! This was such a fun one❤️
My favorite color to sew with is red, 2nd dark blue.
So excited to see the last block. Of course, it needed to be a sewing room! Thank you so much, Pat for all your great patterns!
Wondering what you do with all the hanging strings on the back of the quilt top prior to sending to the spa? Clip them or leave them?
Love all your projects. Just finishing Home Is and LOVE IT! Thanks for all you do, Bonnie
