Because we don’t spend enough time on the interwebs (har har har!!!), I thought I’d share a few websites which are great resources for quilters. Some you may be familiar with, and some may be new to you. So grab a cup of tea and settle in for a few hours… here is my list of some of the best websites for quilters….
Pat Sloan– Pat is the Energizer Bunny of the quilting world! On her site, you will enjoy her blog, patterns, and of course, her ever-entertaining and informative radio show! On top of all of that, she is a fabric designer and travels extensively as a teacher. I honestly don’t know how she does it all.
Do you love embroidery? Check out Jenny of Elefantz blog, which just won an award for Best Embroidery Photography Blog… She also has some lovely tutorials here.
I also love the photography and projects over at The Crafty Quilter. Julie also has lots of tutorials and a Christmas Once a Month series which is just great.
Check out the FaveQuilts website for tons of free quilting and sewing projects!
For more quilt blogs than you can shake a stick at, check out Quilter Blogs.
For Pinterest inspiration, check out the board Quilts, Quilts, Quilts– over 160,ooo photos of… QUILTS!!!
Are you looking for how-to video tutorials? Check out the Missouri Star Quilt Company YouTube channel.
(Now, don’t spend too much time on the internet- grab a little inspiration and then go make something!!!)
I’m so honored to make it to your list! Thanks for sharing your favorites. It’s always nice to find new places to visit.
What wonderful quilting resources, and I’m blushing that you’ve included Elefantz. Bless your generous and kind heart, Jacquelynne. x
I’m off to check out the Christmas Once A Month link!
love it so much to see, and read,
Thank you so much for the links.
Jacquelynne,
I have recently been following your site and in one of your post you suggested checking out a site called a “A Quilt and a Prayer”. I fell in love with one of her quilts named “Amish Beauty”. I couldn’t find a way to correspond with the site. Can you offer any help on how I could purchase the pattern or a kit?
By the way I got in to late to sew with you on the Block of the Month last year but I’m planning on it this year. Thanks, Marianne
Always fun to find new inspirational and helpful blogs.

Thanks for sharing these with us Jacquelynne! I knew of most of them, but added a couple new favorites to my feeds :*)
Thank you for the great links.

Thanks,
Hi Jacquelynne, I checked out all these sites, thank you. I also sent you an email. Lovely site!
Jackquelynne, Love your site. I am planning to buy some long skinny quilting-
what – boards, or “sticks”, Ha, or whatever you call them like my Mother
use to “sew” her quilt parts to to quilt and the corners where two sticks cross, she had these C clamps that screwed down to hold the wood together. I don’t remember where I saw this, but while looking for wood for the boards, I saw a photo of someone who had used wide metal clips to hold the layers of quilt onto the boards, instead of using stitches. I’ve looked on E Bay and
other sites, trying to find these clips and can’t find any that look like they would open wide enough to fit around a one-inch board with the fabric attached. Do you know what I’m talking about? Thanks for a reply.

Hello I read your post about looking for clips that would fit a 1 in thick board I find many items at the building stores like home Depot and also the dollar store is an excellent place to find stuff that you can use CHEAP! Good luck! ?
Could be large binder clips…in stationary store…maybe even $ store
I am looking for thimbleberries fabrics in shades of green I am finally finishing a quilt started years ago and an short fabric thanks if anybody can help
