Celebrating 250 Years of Jane Austen
This year marks the 250th anniversary of Jane Austen and we are celebrating with the release of the Emma collection and this absolutely stunning Block of the Month quilt!
The Emma Collection is shipping next month and we can hardly wait!
We debuted this quilt, designed by Lori Holt, at H+H Americas and it was a showstopper! Just look at how beautiful it is! Chelsea Fitzgerald of @cuddleupquilts did this custom quilting and as always she did an incredible job.
If you are a Jane Austen lover, this stunning quilt is a must-make!
How To Participate:
This is a go-at-your-own-pace Block of the Month that we are kicking off in August! We are supporting it with YouTube Monthly Block Tutorials that will release the second Wednesday of each month beginning in August!
Our Set to Sew video and the full (and FREE) pattern will be available on July 2 on our website to give you time to order your fabric and get ready to sew!
We are also delighted to have one of our UK based Influencers, @stitchwithrachel participating on her YouTube Channel!
What You Need:
You will need your fabric (requirements are listed on the storyboard), the Jane Austen Sew Simple Shapes Set, and Precut Sew-In Interfacing.
Where to Get It:
Always check with your local quilt shop to see if they have what you need or if they plan to carry it! Otherwise, you can find these products online! Below is a list of shops participating. If you are a quilt shop who is participating in the 250 Jane Austen Anniversary Block of Month please email us at blog@rileyblakedesigns.com to be added to this list!
We can hardly wait! We will update this post with the free pattern when it is live!

Please consider when printing playing cards like the Jane Austen cards, that those who are left-handed cannot see which cards they are holding because you only print in two corners instead of all four corners. Beautiful cards, I’d like to buy them but can’t use them.
