Hey everyone! How is your recovery from the weekend going? I think there are a few of us around here who could have used one more day off – myself included! Nobody’s complaining though. There’s a lot to do to get ready for summer and not a lot of time to do it. We’re all excited to wrap up spring projects and start thinking about the beach, cook-outs, and of course putting some serious work into the garden! It’s kind of painful to think that I won’t have my new Red and White Gatherings fabric line physically in my hands until sometime after summer leaves us, especially after seeing the strike-offs and how beautiful this line is turning out. I can barely wait! This collection is made up of cream-based whites and a stunning mix of reds, ranging from middle of the road to dark and deep. Print patterns include floral, linear, and geometrical designs that span from tiny to large giving you a wide spectrum of visual variety.
If you’re anything like me, these exciting new fabrics have your mind going in a million directions! I can imagine this versatile line being implemented into several different projects I’ve been thinking about starting. You know how I love the traditional red and white color combination! Of course, I also have a design book coming out that will contain nine unique designs (12 total quilts – some with more than one version) – all based on “Red & White Gatherings” fabric. If you’re looking for a bit of red and white inspiration, this book is the perfect solution! As of now, it will be available to ship in October, 2022. Quilt kits are not available yet but will be coming soon!
I know getting the finished book into your hands feels a long way off as well, but don’t fret! I DO have some good news in the midst of all this longing… As of now, pre-cuts and yardage of “Red & White Gatherings” AND the project book Red and White Gatherings are officially available to pre-order from our website. Just click the link below! Not to mention, now is a great time to stock up on “Red & White Gatherings” because all pre-cuts are 20% OFF (for a limited time)! Please note: Pre-orders should be the only thing in your car when you are ordering. If you have other, non pre-order items to purchase you will need to order them through a separate transaction!
Even though having to wait is no fun, when new inventory finally arrives I think it feels a lot like Christmas! Hey, speaking of presents I have some prize winners to announce! Congratulations to Linda C. and Jenny M.! As a way to say thanks for your comments on my blog last week we’d love to send you a gift!

If you didn’t win this week, don’t give up! We choose winners on weekly basis from the comments made to the blog.
I don’t know about you, but after the holiday last weekend and with all this warm weather we’ve been having, I’m definitely in a very Summer-time/red, white, and blue kind of mood. We recently decorated The Gathering with some of my favorite red, white, and blue quilts, and of course it looks awesome! This morning I filled in for Shelley LIVE on “Shop Talk“ and we took a look at each one of the quilts on display. If you’re looking for a patriotic summer time project or simply need ideas, you should really check it out! There are a lot of really stunning options to choose from and a variety of sizes. Catch the replay by clicking the link below! Ok everyone, bye for now! I’ll be back tomorrow for Moda Blockheads 4 Wednesday! We’re on block #11 this week. Are you keeping up? See you then! ~Lisa
Lovely Red and Whites! I might just have to make another one!
I loved your hair today! It was fun to tour all the quilts, they are all gorgeous.
Thank you Jolin! I was wondering if it was too bright but the girls told me I look sun-kissed. Perfect – CA here I come!
Working on my Clue 2 of the mystery quilt. Doing mine scrappy. Thanks for helping me clear out my scrap bins. Those pieces of fabric that are just to big to throw away 😝
Love your red and white. Thanks for all you patterns.
Enjoyed the tour of The Gathering this morning!
I have enjoyed watching your videos about the Oh say can you sew. I can’t wait for clue 3. Hugs,
Hi Sandi – Watch for it June 6th! I will post both a video and a blog about it. Sew happy to have you stitching along! ~Lisa
It will feel like Christmas when Red and White arrive!
Watched the video of your shop with all the beautiful patriotic quilts!!! Very beautifully done!!!! Your new fabric line is beautiful also!!! I hope your trip to California is wonderful!!!
Embarrassed to say I am stilllll working on the flag blocks from last summer Hogs for hero’s project. But am so excited to see the new red and white collection. Will definitely be ordering the book and fabric. Thank you Lisa and staff for all you do.
You once posted a blue and white quilt pattern, a free one, called something like Streak of Lightening … imagine THAT in the new line! Hopefully the line will be in stock when you have your red and white quilt show… it’ll be an instant sellout! It looks like it would pair well with Starlight, too!
The fabrics are beautiful! It was a much needed relaxing weekend! Got some sewing done!
Another Red and White group, yeah, my favorites!
I love every one of your fab ric lines. This one definitely will come to my house!!
Red and whites are my favorite. I actually finished by red and white wall quit to send you in October for the Red and White Quilt Challenge! I’m never done early!
My favorite color combination is blue and white, but this red and white is awesome! I am very tempted.
Go for it Joyce!!! 🙂
More red & whites to have fun with. Can’t wait to see your new book with new ideas.
Lisa you are one extremely talented & energetic lady. Thanks for keeping me sane with all your awesome projects!
Beautiful line! I will be ordering this for sure
The new red and white designs are very exciting 🤗
Love the new red and whites ! Can never have enough!
Those reds and creams are beautiful! Looking forward to the book and all the quilt projects.
The red and white gatherings are beautiful. I love love the one on top of the layer cake under your beautiful photo.
How many reds and how many whites are there?

As usual, your new line looks beautiful. Can’t wait to see the quilts you’re designing with them. I loved the tour through The Gathering, looking at all the eye candy. I’m looking forward to making the Charm Pack Quilt from the American Gathering book. Bought an extra book and charms for my BFF’s birthday.
