I know many of you are right on schedule and rearing to go for finishing instructions so let’s get to it. By clicking the button below you will find instructions on how to finish your Joyful Gatherings quilt exactly the way I did, which looks like this…

What do you think? If you’re not totally in love, don’t worry. I have a couple of alternative cornerstone options for you to choose from included in the instructions as well, which you can download for FREE by clicking the button above!

    Thank you Lisa for all of your hard work and generosity. I have been keeping up with Twilight Stars for two extra long twin beds so didn’t have the time to spare for this one but saved the instructions for 2024. The Black Star Farm QAL looks great too. So many great ideas – just not enough time to do it all. LOL You and your team are the best!

    This was my first QAL with you. I loved the guided tour videos. I also liked the tree construction method. Lovely quilt idea and fun to make. Wish I lived close enough to visit your lovely shop and Event Center! Enjoy the holidays with your family.

    Hi Lisa and primitive gatherings gang. So I used a couple different backgrounds for my trees, and now I need background to finish the quilt. Did you post anywhere the amount of fabric it takes for the finishing? If not, I’ll figure it out. Just thought I’d ck first. Thanks for the quilt along, I love it!!!

      Hey Beth! Sorry, but no I don’t have those measurements typed up anywhere and I don’t know them off the top of my head. You’ll have to do the math by calculating the cuts you need to make from the background to get the needed yardage.
