Join the Lanterns of Hope Quilt-A-Long!
April 15-June 12, 2024
Lanterns of Hope is a beginner-friendly, modern traditional quilt and my most popular pattern! This pattern comes together pretty quickly, but there are a lot of different blocks, so we’re going to take our time and make just a few each week.

Meet HollyAnne Knight
While HollyAnne's first exposure to machine sewing was at the young age of 8, but she began sewing seriously in her 20s. She began with a tshirt quilt for her Mama, and now she loves sewing quilts and garments, and she is passionate about providing encouraging, high-quality in-person classes and digital education.
HollyAnne's mission is to guide more folks around the world to stitch with confidence rather than being afraid they will "mess up" their quilt or garment.
