It's My Blogging Anniversary!

Devoted Quilter is 8 years old today! When I first started this blog, I was so clueless, I had to have my husband teach me how to get a picture from our camera onto the computer. I've come a long way since then, lol.

I had no idea how blogging would change me, to be honest. I wasn't a quilt pattern designer before I started blogging. I wasn't a business owner (and never thought I would be!) and I certainly wasn't teaching quilting classes online to groups in other parts of the country. I wasn't sewing clothes, either. I also wasn't writing much at all. Even though I'd start the occasional piece, I hardly ever finished them.

Mostly, though, I didn't have friends who shared my passion for making quilts from beautiful fabric. Starting this blog, and then joining Instagram a year or so later, allowed me to find this amazing community of quilters that I now get to call friends. I hope to one day meet more of you in person (so far it has been only two), but even if I don't, I love having you in my computer and my phone, lol.

To celebrate my 8 years, I'm having my annual Anniversary Sale 😊 From now through March 7th, all patterns in my Etsy shop are 25% off, no coupon code needed. Free shipping still applies to all printed patterns, too, anywhere in the world. 

Shop the sale!

Thank you for being part of my quilting community!

It's a wonderful, never ending parade of inspiration and joy!
