Do you have a growing collection of quilt kits that are just begging to be sewn? You’re not alone! Many quilters find themselves drawn to the beautiful fabrics and coordinated colors in pre-cut kits, but sometimes those kits end up languishing on a shelf.
Are you ready for a quilting challenge that brings back the fun of the ’90s Book It! reading program—only with fabric?
Welcome to Stitch It! 2025, a 10-week quilt-along designed to help you finally finish those quilt kits! Whether they’re already in progress or still packaged up, this challenge is for you.
How It Works
Each participant will commit to finishing three quilt kits during the 10-week Quilt It! challenge. Whether it’s piecing, quilting, or binding, this is your chance to clear out those unopened or half-finished kits and celebrate each finish. There will be prizes (TBD) along the way, and you’ll have the support of an amazing quilting community cheering you on.

Best of all, this quilt-along is free! And not only that, but we’re going to have giveaways! We will use the hashtags #StitchIt2025 on Instagram, along with a member Facebook group, to post our progress and cheer each other on!
