Apparently, if you’re busy quilting all the quilts, you still have to remember to take photos and post about quilting all the quilts 😂

Social media has been a little neglected lately, so here’s a photo dump of just some of the beautiful quilts that have been on the machine in August!

We’re so excited to be launching classes in Heights Sewing Centre's brand new classroom space at their new Bell Park store!

Starting on May 19th, join Kim for a relaxed 3-week Stack & Slash quilt class designed especially for beginners (or anyone curious about getting started with patchwork). You’ll learn the basics of cutting and piecing, then move on to sashing and borders—finishing the course with your very own quilt top completed.

It’s the perfect chance to explore quilting in a supportive, hands-on space and see if this creative (slightly addictive!) hobby is for you.

Class dates: Tuesday 19 May, 26 May & 2 June
9:30am - 12:30pm

$120 for the 3 weeks + Requirements

Spots are limited! Book here: https://calendly.com/thequiltmerchant/fast-fabulous-quilt-top-stack-slash

🎄✨ Quilting Update! ✨🎄
My quilting list is now full for guaranteed pre-Christmas delivery!
I’m still more than happy to take in quilts, but I just can’t promise they’ll be finished before Christmas. I’ll do my best, but the elves (aka me!) are working flat out already! 😉
Thank you so much to everyone who’s brought quilts in — I’m so grateful for your support and can’t wait to see all these beautiful projects finished up for the festive season. ❤️

A little late in sharing this, but I’m so thrilled to say my quilt was awarded Highly Commended in the Modern Quilts – One Person category at the Victorian Quilters Quilt Showcase a few weeks ago! 🎉 A big thank you to for sponsoring the category.

Even more exciting, my lovely customer Lynette also received Highly Commended in the Modern Quilts – Two Person category with her beautiful quilt. 💕

It was such a joy to see so many inspiring quilts on display and to celebrate these wins together. 🪡✨

✨ Rumour control time (with a little help from our newest employee, Daisy 🐾)
We’ve had a few people asking if we’re closing up shop because there’s a For Sale sign & Sold sticker out the front of our building. Rest assured — we’re not going anywhere!

The sign is for the building, not the business. We’re securely in our lease until April 2028, so you’ll be seeing plenty of us (and now Daisy) for years to come.

It’s been such a busy few months that it honestly never crossed my mind that the sign might cause a stir. But don’t worry — while the building is now sold, I’m definitely not packing up my quilting machine anytime soon.

In fact, we’ve just added to the team — meet Daisy, our brand-new “employee”! Her specialty? Supervising from the comfort of a quilt pile and reminding us to take cuddle breaks 💕
So please keep popping in — we’re still here, still quilting, and now with extra puppy love. 🐶✨

✨ Join us on March 22nd for the Sherbet Stars Quilt Class! ✨

Over 20 years ago, Kim designed this stunning stained glass star quilt using the stack and slash technique—perfect for endless fabric variations! Her latest version, Sherbet Striped Stars, is a vibrant mix of solids framed with a bold black-and-white stripe. Prefer a classic look? Opt for black fabric to frame your stars instead!

In this workshop, you’ll create stars in sets of three, with a focus on completing at least three stars during class. The pattern is included in your workshop fee!
