When it comes to giving, quilters rule! While technically, any quilt design can serve as a gift; this issue features a go-to assortment around some of the most common gift-giving occasions. For example, the Tinker Toys baby quilt employs easy-to-customize analogous hues, and the Homecoming Mashup lap quilt showcases a student’s, athlete’s, graduate’s, or sports-fan’s school or team colors. For occasions when your scrap bin is fatter than your pocketbook, we have three designs for you to create gifts that recipients will cherish. And when a surprise occasion calls for a quilt on short notice, you’ll love Quilter’s Zen-an alluring make-in-a-weekend design featuring a single stack of precut 10″ squares.

Likewise, remember that any quilt design meant for giving can be kept and treasured by its maker, too!

Keep up with the goings-on in the quilting world with the Community Sampler, Shop Hop, and Sew Many Tips departments. Find inspiration in Heather Peterson’s Trunk Show and readers’ quilted postcards.
