Welcome to our Juliet Quilt Along!
Come and spend some time quilting with me in the new year.
I am SEW excited for this project.
I will be sharing the most beautiful color options with you for this quilt,
and the best part, there are no Y seams in this 45-degree diamond star!
For now, you can choose from two of the wonderful kits we have.
The Juliet Tea Dye option shown above,
or this stunning Juliet - Dahlia Fabric Kit.
Join us for 4 weeks, right here on our Blog and YouTube Channel, to make this beautiful design a reality.
