Before I list the quilts and sewing projects I worked on this year, I want to pause for a moment.
Reflection matters. Not to count finishes, not to measure productivity, and definitely not to compare with anyone else’s sewing journey. This year reminded me that progress doesn’t always look loud. Some seasons are steady. Some are quiet. Many are made up of small pockets of time, 20 minutes here, a few stitches there and THAT still counts.
If you’ve ever felt like you didn’t “make enough” this year, I hope this list encourages you.
These projects aren’t about numbers or finishes — they’re about showing up when I could and finding joy in the process.

I’m so happy to finally be sharing this finish — my Abloom quilt, made from the May 2025 Sew Sampler Box. This is one of those projects that quietly stayed with me throughout the year, and seeing it fully quilted and finished feels especially satisfying.
The fabric collection, Abloom by Corey Yoder for Moda Fabrics, is just beautiful. Soft, cheerful florals with a timeless feel — the kind of prints that instantly lift your mood. I especially loved working with the panel that came in the box; it really anchors the quilt and makes it feel special.
I followed the pattern exactly as written, and honestly, it was such an enjoyable make. Even though I did experience a little stall along the way (which I shared in my previous blog post HERE> , the construction itself was smooth and fun. This is something I’ve come to really appreciate about Sew Sampler projects — they’re thoughtfully designed and a pleasure to sew.
(This is where I personally love to glance back later too!)

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.
