As the year winds down and I tidy up my sewing room for a fresh start in 2026, I always find myself reflecting on the quilting tools that truly made a difference this year. Some tools were pleasant surprises, some old favourites stayed loyal, and some became total game-changers for my quilting workflow.
If you’re looking to refresh your tool kit or find great gift ideas for a quilting friend, here are my most-used quilting tools of 2025…
One thing I’ve loved about this quilt from the very beginning is the fabric. Camille Roskelley has always been one of my favorite designers, and this collection is absolutely gorgeous. Every finished block feels like a joy and I simply enjoyed them individually, and when placed together, it’s shaping up to be a truly beautiful quilt. The quilt measures generously once completed, and I already know this will be one of those quilts I treasure for years.

November has always felt like a gentle pause between the rush of the year and the anticipation of what’s next. I love fall season even though we don’t have seasons in Malaysia, the thoughts of fall always remain in my heart. It was my favourite season when I was in Australia. The air turns softer, the evenings grow longer, and everything seems to slow down just a little — inviting us to reflect, to rest, and to be grateful.
This year, I’ve been reminding myself to truly enjoy the moment while it lasts. It’s so easy to get caught up worrying about what December will bring, what winter might feel like, or what the new year holds. But November — with its cozy colors and slower pace — is a beautiful reminder to focus on the now. To enjoy the blessings we already have today. A quiet sewing evening. A warm drink. A finished quilt.
And speaking of quilts… my Autumn Nights Quilt is finally finished! This is a free pattern and a recently finished quilt-along –> Autumn Nights Quilt Along.
It’s amazing what a fat quarter bundle and a free pattern can become — see how this fall quilt turned out, you’ll want to see the little tiny pumpkins that I quilted in this quilt!! Enjoy all the photos below.
Quilting Mistakes We All Make (and What They Teach Us!)
Every quilter, no matter how experienced, has a few “oops” moments hidden behind their finished quilt. From uneven seams to miscounted quilt blocks (like mine!), these little hiccups are part of the quilting process — and honestly, they often make the best stories.
Last week, I pushed myself to finish one more block for a quilt top I’d been working on. I had run out of fabric and had to dig deep into my stash to find something close enough to match. You’d think with all the fabric I have, it would be easy, but with thousands of shades of peach, green, and aqua, finding the right one can take a lot of time!
Can you tell that the four fabrics (those rectangles on the left of the centre panel unit) are from different collections?
After finally sewing that block together and pressing it flat, I happily joined the rows on my sewing machine. Everything went smoothly — until I realized I had one extra block.
Apparently, I’d miscounted. So while I thought I was short of one block, I actually wasn’t! Now I am one block too many!! It made me laugh, and I decided to include the extra one on the back of the quilt — a secret patchwork surprise stitched in. But I stitched in the extra block! See photo below:
