With summer just around the corner, here at Connecting Threads we’ve all been talking about trips we want to take, the fresh, ripe fruits and vegetables that will soon be appearing at the market (and in our gardens!), and a season full of picnics. I’m sure you can imagine that we have no shortage of picnic-perfect quilts here at CT headquarters! Since it’s May, we’re also finalizing our plans for
4
4th of July sewing. One of the things I love the most about the 4th of July is the tradition of celebrating each year with friends and family in backyards across America. We’ve put together a selection of red, white, and blue indoor/outdoor tabletop projects for you—perfect to add to your own collection or give away as gifts. And, of course, it simply wouldn’t be summer without a season full of delicious treats. Read some staff favorites on p. 43 and keep an eye on your inbox. I’ll be sharing my great grandmother’s delectable berry cobbler recipe later this month! Yours very truly,
Kris Erickson

Bonnie’s passion for crafting and textiles inspired her to create her own line of patterns, books, and fabric. Bonnie’s flannel collections are a hit, including the much loved Woolies Flannel, which coordinates!
Easy Panel Project! All you need is 1 panel, 11/2 yards fabric for backing and binding, and a piece of batting slightly larger than the panel! We love 99468 Color Wash Black for backing and binding, but any fabrics from this collection that fit your fancy will work!

A Guide to Batting A selection of battings we love. Picked for their smooshiness factor, these battings will create perfect snuggle quilts.
COTTON B ATTIN G Cotton is a soft, breathable, and natural fiber. It’s machine washable and dryable, has moderate drape, and ages well. It softens and shrinks slightly with washing, giving it a crinkled “lived in” look. Compared to other materials, cotton batting offers the heaviest weight. GOOD FOR A flat, traditional look
WOOL BATTIN G Wool is lightweight, warm, and moisture-wicking. Contrary to popular belief, it’s machine washable and dryable as long as you use gentle, cool cycles. GOOD FOR Garments & all-season bed quilts
