Quilting with a Twist: Dive into Zen Chic’s Lotus Block Tutorial & Exclusive Deal!

August 23, 2023 Brigitte Heitland

Hey Quilting Companions! 🌸 Introducing... The Lotus Quilt Block Tutorial!

Hey there, fabulous quilt aficionados! Today, we've got a treat that's going to make you 'sew' excited, you might just drop your thimble! 😉

Dive into the Lotus Pool

We're taking a stylish dive into the world of the Lotus quilt block. Why "Lotus," you ask? Well, like the flower that emerges pristine from the murk, this block pops out with elegance from your fabric. And the best part? It's easier than threading a needle (okay, sometimes that can be challenging, but bear with us).

Let’s Get Stitchin’!

So, let's get those seams aligned and rev up your sewing machines! A little hint? A scant 1/4” seam can make a whole 'lotus' difference. 😂

Before diving in, have your fabrics, templates, and that fun sewing spirit ready. And remember the golden rule: Always test your blocks before diving into the main project. We wouldn’t want to end up with a quilt that looks like it had one too many cups of coffee!

  1. Begin with the half-square triangle unit (or the HST for those in the quilting know). Trust us; it's as easy as piecing together why we all love quilting so much. Mark, stitch, cut, and you’re halfway there!

  2. Up next, let Template A guide you. It's like your quilt GPS – but without the annoying “recalculating” voice. 😆

  3. Combine Fabrics A and B in a dance of curves and straight lines. Need help with that tango? We've got a Zen Chic video for that! 👇

4. Time for a little quilt spa treatment – trim and straighten. Give your block that polished look it deserves!

Once you've pieced together 64 of these beauties, stand back, and give yourself a round of applause! (See what we did there?)

Let’s Wrap This Up! 🎀

With each stitch, remember, you're not just making a quilt; you're stitching memories, weaving in warmth, and, most importantly, showcasing your impeccable taste in quilt design. Thanks for tuning into our little tutorial chat.

An Exclusive Blooming Offer for Our Petal-Perfect Quilters! 🌸

Hold on to your quilting squares, because we've got a deal that's sew perfect: Inspired by our Lotus tutorial and itching to start? Well, let the quilting stars align because, for this weekend only, we're offering a 25% special discount on the Lotus quilt pattern! 🎉 So, whether you're a seasoned quilter or just starting to piece together your quilting journey, now's your chance to bloom with Lotus. Use the code LOTUSLOVE at checkout and dive into a world of elegance and sophistication. But remember, like a shooting star (or a needle that's lost in a haystack), this offer is fleeting. So snag your pattern, stitch your heart out, and let's make some quilting magic together!
