Book Preorders Open! / Beauties Pageant 282

 

 
I am pleased to announce that I’ve launched book preorders in my new Shopify store! To celebrate, I’m offering a limited-time bundle: preorder the book, and receive 2 PDF patterns free right now.
 
The preorder listing has all the details—with a bunch of styled pictures of the sample quilts, taken by Melanie Zacek. (Even if you’re not in the market for a new quilt book, the pictures are spectacular and worth a look!) 
 
To take advantage of the special offer, add the book preorder to your cart. Then, navigating to the PDF Patterns page, add 2 PDF patterns to your cart. (You must add 2.) Upon checkout, use the discount QUILTCON.

Your patterns will be available for immediate download from an email that youll receive momentarily (check your spam folder if it doesn’t appear in your inbox after a few minutes). The book is slated to ship at the end of April 2025 via USPS.

Quilters outside of the US: The cost of international shipping is ridiculous! As a result, this preorder is limited to US mailing addresses. Just because you live elsewhere on this planet, however, doesn’t mean you should miss out! Drop me a note (frombolttobeauty@gmail.com) after preordering or purchasing the book locally, and I will hook you up with your free patterns. : )

I’ll be taking a deep dive into the pattern collection in the upcoming weeks, telling you more about the backstory behind each pattern. I’ve been waiting not-so-patiently to get to this point! Eep—I’m so excited to share these projects with you!

I invested a lot of time and effort to assemble this collection of patterns in book form, and I wasn’t alone in the endeavor ... Gailen Runge, the creative director at C&T Publishing, helped me make this book-writing dream a reality. Moda fulfilled my fabric-y dreams by supplying so many jelly rolls and so much yardage—the samples are all the better for it. And the Warm Company shipped me a big old bolt of Warm & White. As a quilter who loves light backgrounds, that’s been my preferred batting for the past 10 years. : )

  3. Congratulations Michelle, I'll be purchasing the book in its PDF version once it comes out. That's the best way since I'm in Canada. Looking forward to it!
