When joining any of our Facebook Groups, the following rules apply:

GOAL: Everyone feels loved, respected, valued, and heard. Everyone is welcome. We solve problems here and form lasting friendships. This is not just another group on Facebook - we are an online quilting circle that operates with love and kindness at all times.

Communicate so that everyone feels welcome, respected, and loved.

There are no stupid questions.

When providing a response, do so with care and kindness because we don't have the benefit of tone and facial expressions when online.

When providing an answer, please don't just say read the instructions or watch the video. Tell people what document and what page or what video to view. If it's a quick answer, say "this is the answer and it can be found here." so they're able to read it for themselves and help others in the future.

If you are unable to be kind, please be silent.

Be Kind and Courteous: We're all in this together to create a welcoming environment. Let's treat everyone with respect. Healthy debates are natural, but kindness is required.

Express Yourself

Say What? Anything You’d Like!

Quilters deserve to not only design what they want to design, but to also say what they want to say. And now you can with the Express Yourself Design Collection.

This collection grew out of the Peace, Love and Joy Design Collection — after quilters clamored for the rest of the alphabet. I also included numbers and a couple punctuation marks. All are quilting-in-the-hoop designs as well as stand-alone, embroidered appliqué designs.

You can either choose your own message, or use the fun crossword quilt that’s included with this collection. Beware - it's not a perfect crossword!

Quilt (72" x 78")

Features:

  • Embroidered appliqué stand-alone designs for the letters A-Z, numbers 0-9, and punctuation !, ?
  • Quilted-in-the-hoop blocks (5” x 6”) for all characters, each with 3 different quilted backgrounds.
  • 3 Quilted-in-the-hoop blocks featuring a heart motif, a 4-heart motif and a diamond motif — each with 3 different quilted backgrounds.
