{"product_id":"vintage-block-along-quilt-pattern-from-its-sew-emma","title":"Vintage Block Along Quilt Pattern Book by Lori Holt for It's Sew Emma","description":"\u003cp\u003eA full sampler of traditional blocks, gathered into one large quilt. Stars, baskets, a pieced flag, a little house, flowers, and dozens of classic patchwork blocks fill the center on a soft cream background, framed by a gentle floral border in vintage pinks, teals, reds, and golds. Each block carries a piece of Lori Holt's family history, with notes on its meaning and the women who shaped her love of quilting, so the book reads as part block collection and part keepsake. The finished quilt is generously sized for a bed and meant to be lived with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat the Book Includes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis listing is for the printed spiral-bound pattern book, not a kit or a finished quilt. Fabric, batting, backing, and notions are not included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book provides complete cutting and assembly instructions and diagrams for every block, the layout and finishing for the 90.5 by 108.5 inch sampler quilt, and Lori's written reflections on the individual blocks. The spiral binding lets the book lie flat at the machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis title is expected to be available in December 2026.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat You'll Need\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a scrappy sampler, so it suits a wide, coordinated collection of prints or a deep stash pull set against a background fabric. A fat quarter bundle paired with background and border yardage is a natural starting point. Because the finished quilt is bed-sized, plan for a generous amount of backing. Full fabric requirements and yardages are listed inside the book.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuilters who enjoy a sampler and want variety rather than one repeated block\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSewists building skills across many traditional blocks in a single project\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnyone drawn to a vintage, scrappy, story-driven heirloom quilt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA long-term make for a bed-sized quilt to keep or pass down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy You'll Love This Book\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA sampler is one of the most engaging kinds of quilt to sew because no two blocks are the same. Block Along moves through a wide range of traditional patchwork, so the work stays fresh from start to finish and piecing grows more confident block by block.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe block stories set this book apart. Reading Lori's reflections while stitching turns an afternoon of sewing into something more personal, and it is part of why the finished quilt feels like a keepsake rather than just a project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorked at your own pace, one block at a time, a bed-sized sampler is far more approachable than it looks. The spiral-bound format keeps the instructions open and flat while you sew, and the scrappy palette is forgiving, so the quilt rewards steady progress rather than perfection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e It's Sew Emma\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem #:\u003c\/strong\u003e ISE-335\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthors:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lori Holt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Quilt Pattern Book\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSkill Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Confident beginner and up; a sampler of many traditional pieced blocks worked at your own pace; comfortable rotary cutting and patchwork piecing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTechnique:\u003c\/strong\u003e Standard Machine Sewing, Conventional Patchwork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Designs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 sampler quilt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinished Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 90.5\" x 108.5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Printed Pattern Book (spiral-bound)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAvailability:\u003c\/strong\u003e Expected December 2026\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMade in the United States\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"It's Sew Emma","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48306686263544,"sku":"ISE-335","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0632\/0196\/8376\/files\/ISE-335.jpg?v=1777668023","url":"https:\/\/smartisans.com\/products\/vintage-block-along-quilt-pattern-from-its-sew-emma","provider":"Smartisans","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
