JUNE 2025 Quilters love precuts, don’t we? A new fabric collection catches your eye and you grab a precut bundle because you love the fabric. Do you then struggle to find the right pattern to use with it? We planned this issue to help solve that dilemma so you can use those precuts!

If you have an excess of fat quarters lingering in your stash, consider Deb Gehringer’s Stars & Solids on page 26, or Leap Frog by Diana Campbell on page 60. Lindsey Snyder’s Sundance, page 48, is both a 10"-square- and fat-quarter-friendly design (we’ve included cutting instructions for either option, as well as cutting from yardage). For me,…

PLAN FOR CUTTING Our project instructions list pieces in the order they should be cut to make the best use of your fabrics. Always consider the fabric grain before cutting. The arrow on a pattern piece indicates which direction the grain should run. One or more straight edges of a pattern piece should follow the fabric’s lengthwise or crosswise grain. The lengthwise grain, parallel to the selvages (the tightly finished edges), has the least amount of stretch. The crosswise grain, perpendicular to the selvages, has a little more give. The edge of any pattern piece that will be on the outside of a block or quilt should be cut on the lengthwise grain. Do not use the selvage of a woven fabric in a quilt. When washed, it may…
