What is on your New Year's bucket list? Perhaps you are looking for a fun new project? Or you want to hone your piecing skills. Maybe you are looking for your next quilt along. If any of those items are on your "to-do" list for 2020, Luminous - An Adventure in Color Quilt Along is for you!
Kate and I (and of course Felix, my ever present Quality Control Inspector) would like to invite you to join us in our Adventure In Quilting Quilt Along. It is a star studded adventure that will run for six short months, but will be sure to entertain and delight you!
Kate and I have each created our own version of Luminous, the Adventure in Color quilt for this quilt along. We played with color, because as you know, color can have a HUGE impact on the overall look of the quilt. I think you'll enjoy the two versions - Dawn and Dusk - that we have to offer during this project.
The full details are listed below. As we did with our Road Trip Quilt Along, we will take turns posting and sharing tips for working with the blocks, talk about colors, and give some background on the block names (hint: they are each named after a goddess).
You'll want to head over to my website or Kate's and sign up for the Quilt Along Newsletter so that you receive reminders when the blog posts are live. The blog posts will contain the link to the website (or Etsy site if you are an international quilt customer) to get that week's pattern. While you are there, feel free to sign up for our newsletters as well, so that you know all of the current happenings for Tamarinis and Seams Like a Dream Designs!
Quilt Along Details
Each block will be available on both sites on the scheduled day by 8am MT. The blocks and the setting will be only $3.00 each during the Quilt Along. Once a block has been released, it will stay available through May 13, 2020.
If you would prefer to purchase all the blocks and the setting at once, the full PDF pattern will be available starting Jan 29th for $24.00. It will be available thru May 13, 2020.
After May 13th, 2020, the blocks will no longer be available individually or as a full pattern in PDF format. The pattern will then be available as a full printed pattern at the full price of $28.
For any customers living outside the US, the patterns will be available in our ETSY shops.
I have a Quilt Along page set up here with a PDF of the FAQs and a link to my ETSY shop.
Here is my version of Luminous in Dusk, echoing the colors of the coming night. Jump on over to Kate's blog to see her lovely version in Dawn. It is stunning!

Kate and I look forward to sharing this adventure in color with you. Oh - and we have some amazing sponsors that are providing awesome prizes during the quilt along (for US participants only). You'll want to check back with each installment for a chance to win fabric, thread, batting, and much more! No, you don't HAVE to be making the quilt (but let's face it - you're gonna want to make it!).
