This chapter is all about building the border. We'll snowball the corner units, make the border units, and use a simple batch sewing workflow to keep everything moving quickly and efficiently.

It's a shorter chapter, but by the time you're finished, you'll have every border unit ready for quilt assembly. The quilt is really starting to come together!

The first Swayful blocks are coming together. This The first Swayful blocks are coming together. This is always my favorite part of a new quilt. After all the planning, fabric pulling, and organizing, you finally get to watch the woven knot begin to appear.

In Chapter 3 of the Swayful Quilty Class, we build the block together one unit at a time, and I also share a few of my favorite shortcuts for snowball piecing along with the batch sewing workflow I use to keep everything organized as the quilt grows.

It’s amazing how quickly a stack of individual units starts looking like a quilt.

I can’t wait to see everyone’s blocks!

🌸 Last Call for Must Have Flowers Thursday is the 🌸 Last Call for Must Have Flowers

Thursday is the final day to pre-order Must Have Flowers.

This cheerful collection is full of delicate, hand-drawn florals and all the happy colors that make summer quilts so much fun to sew. I’m using it right now for the larger Swayful quilt inside the Swayful Quilt Class, and I love seeing those flowers come together block by block.

We currently have:

• Fat quarter bundles
• Half yard bundles
• Yardage
• Quilt kits

After Thursday, the kits and yardage will no longer be available. Bundles will remain only while supplies last.

The collection is expected to arrive by the end of July. Find it at https://meanderandmake.com
