In my last post, I teased a new project I was making with red, white, and blue prints. This quilt is called Sparklers and the pattern is from a brand new book by Pat Sloan called Holiday Celebrations - 17 Quilts and More for 6 Seasonal Occasions. More on both the quilt and the book below!
*this post includes affiliate links
Holiday Celebrations is the latest book by quilting guru, Pat Sloan.
This book has 17(!) quilts+projects for all of your seasonal celebrations and occasions. Here's a sampling of a few of my favorites. (All photos by Martingale Publishing.)
I think I want to make every single one of these projects!
As you can guess, I chose the Sparklers quilt pattern. Here is Pat's version from the Holiday Celebrations book.
Usually I try a totally different take on a project, just to give it a different look. But I was so smitten with this pile of the Liberty quilting cottons Carnaby Collection (coming to stores next month) and looking for the perfect project to make with it. And here it was!
The blocks in Pat's version are scrappier - which I love - but I decided to modify my version slightly by using fewer prints per block. It's fun to play with fabric placement to change up the look of a block. I love both versions.
I paired the Carnaby prints with a Riley Blake Light Indigo woven chambray and the Uncle Sam Blossom basic with red, white, and blue tossed blossoms. (I also added a Lori Holt Bee Basic Red Tiny Daisy print because I wanted one more red.)
These blocks were so much fun to make! Honestly, if I'd had more of the chambray, I would have kept going and made a total of 9 blocks. The large-scale blocks make the quilt come together really quickly. I'm planning to get this one off to the quilter this weekend.
Holiday Celebrations is available now - hopefully from your favorite local shop - as well as online from Amazon, Martingale Publishing, and The Fat Quarter Shop.

Halloween is my favorite to sew for, and then July 4th. Oh, and I love Christmas. And a fall table runner is fun, too. Yes, I have a problem when it comes to holidays and sewing/quilting. Lol. It’s so nice to get a peek at some quilters that I didn’t know about. I just found Pats videos a few months ago. Have a blessed June.

Pink and red hearts, pastels and Easter bunnies, red/white/blue that takes us from Memorial Day thru Flag Day and July 4th, fall colors that take us from September thru November, Halloween is so much fun, Thanksgiving is hands down my favorite holiday, and there are so many over-the-top beautiful Christmas fabrics for sewing anything you want! And, though not much attention is given to it, I even sew for New Year's (and also have made Hanukkah and Kwanzaa table runners, though I'm neither Jewish nor Black). I'm just a holiday kind of a gal.

Quilting in Maine
My favorite holiday to sew for is Christmas! So many great patterns and fabrics.
robin brown
It not really a 'holiday' season, but I love St. Patrick's day, because I use the 4 leaf clover as my trademark. I put a dried 4 leaf clover behind each of my labels, so the quilt recipient always has Good Luck.
Penney Murren
I liked your idea of making the Sparklers quilt larger! Love your version.

Hi Amy! What a great book chock-full of awesome quilts, and beautiful quilt from you!! I, too, am a sucker for Liberty fabrics and I love that yours isn’t the traditional sort of look for them. My favorite holiday to make quilty things for is Halloween! Doesn’t have the pressure of Christmas and reminds me of great times with my kids when they were Littles.
Judy Marcucci
My favorite season for quilting is Christmas because it's such a fun time of year and Christmas colors are such happy colors. But a close second is definitely patriotic seasons (Memorial Day, 4th of July, Veteran's Day, etc.). I love the variety of projects that are available for these holidays.
Nicole Jarvis
I am sew excited to go try the Sparklers quilt. I love the 4th of July.

I love sewing Christmas quilts and giving them to family as gifts. I also love sewing with various red, white, and blue patterns to get that scrappy patriot looking quilt. Currently I am making a scrappy primary colors quilt while following along with you on the Riley Blake Quilt Block Challenge, can't wait to see how it soon turns out! I thought of you this weekend while I was down in the foothills of Mapleton for my nephews reception. Thanks for being my quilting inspiration!!!

Christmas is my favorite holiday/season to sew for. I used to stick to red/green/gold color ways, but now I am branching out and including navy and sometimes pink, and even made a quilt with the suddenly ubiquitous turquoise/pink/red combo and it is pretty darned cute. It may be reigniting my holiday sewing mojo!
