Zen Chic 2022 Bauhaus Quilt Along - week 5

March 10, 2022 Nicole van Gremberghe

Zen Chic 2022 Bauhaus Quilt Along - week 5



It’s week 5 of the Bauhaus Quilt Along. The special QAL to celebrate the new fabric collection Even More Paper and highlight the Spotted line at the same time.

Up till now…

In the last weeks, we have been busy with the preparations for the Bauhaus quilt. We chose our fabrics, some of you are using the new collection Even More Paper, others are using different fabrics or fabrics from your stash. This Bauhaus pattern has 3 different sizes to choose from, so that was another decision you had to make.

Making our blocks

After we had our fabric, knew what size we wanted to make, and cut the pieces for the blocks, we started sewing. First, we practiced straight seams, then we tackled bias seams, and this week we’re taking on curved seams. Yes, this pattern has it all!

We’re on Instagram and Facebook

But before we take out our sewing machines, let’s take a look at some photos our participants posted on Instagram using the hashtag #bauhausqal

People are also posting their progress in our engaging Facebook group, helping each other out, and cheering one another on. It’s been so much fun and our group has a fantastic atmosphere.


Every week a winner!


All these quilting participants were in the draw for an amazing prize this week. All they had to do was post their photo on IG with that special hashtag or show us their progress in the Facebook group.


You see, every week a great company is giving away a product to one lucky winner in this Quilt Along. Companies like Quiltmania, Fat Quarter Shop, Martingale, and Moda, just to name a few. Wouldn’t you want to win an amazing prize?

Do you wanna win a surprise Thread Bundle from Aurifil?


This week we had Martingale who gave away a $30 gift certificate. And next week we will draw a winner for a surprise Thread Bundle from Aurifil!

Joining hexagons can be a daunting and time-consuming task. Knowing how to do this properly using your sewing machine is a great skill to have under your belt. Watch the video tutorial by All People Quilt featuring the Day in Paris fabric collection.

When you keep making quilts, you keep ending up with lots of scraps. If you have only a handful of them, then these pincushions are cute, easy, and quick items to make. I found a free YouTube tutorial on how to make them. These pincushions are great to have in your own sewing space or to give away to quilting and sewing friends. You can even use the tutorial to make pumpkins to decorate your home for fall season.

If you’re looking for an easy sewing project and you have a few leftover fabrics, I found a great little project for you. These cute headbands are very quick and easy to make. You could surely sew 5 or 6 of them within the hour, making these perfect for a quick gift to a friend. Or make yourself a couple matching your wardrobe. You don’t need much fabric to put a headband together and how fun will it be to complement that blouse you made earlier.
