Take Flight Quilt Tutorial

September has arrived, and I’ve already noticed the first few signs of fall. The sun is setting earlier, there’s a little chill in the morning air, and the geese are on the move! No matter how hot the sun is shining, that first southbound flock of the season tells me autumn is on it’s way.

We’re celebrating the arrival of fall with today’s new quilt, “Take Flight.” It’s a beautiful flying geese pattern that’ll keep you toasty all winter long. Click HERE to watch the tutorial!
