Fabric Refresh - Hey Boo by Lella Boutique for Moda Fabrics

I'm sure you've heard of Christmas in July, but what about Halloween in April? That might not be a thing but a super fun Halloween collection has just started arriving in quilt shops and I think it's going to be a really popular one! I was excited for Lella Boutique's Hey Boo collection for Moda Fabrics from the moment it was first debuted several months ago. It's finally here and if you like it as much as I do, make sure you run to your favorite quilt shop and grab some because I'm pretty sure it won't be around for long!

If you love this fabric, but need some ideas for what to make with it, I've got you covered! Keep reading to check out some of my quilt patterns that I've refreshed with Hey Boo!

Fabric Refresh - Juniper by Sharon Holland for Art Gallery Fabrics

Welcome to 2024! I'm kicking off the new year with a brand new Fabric Refresh blog post. There are so many great fabric collections coming up this year and I hope I can keep up and share my refreshed patterns with you!

Today's featured fabric collection is already available and has been for a bit. It seems to still be fairly easy to find though. It's Sharon Holland's Juniper collection for Art Gallery Fabrics

This collection has a very cozy feel to it and is perfect for this time of year! Let's get right to the refreshed quilts.

The first pattern that I refreshed with Juniper is Evening Glow. I originally designed this quilt with a light background and dark accent, but as I've refreshed this quilt a few times over the years, I'm finding that I like it even better with a dark background and a light accent.

Here I've used one of the dark green prints for the background with solid white for the accent squares. The pattern calls for 16 fat quarters but since this collection doesn't have a lot of prints, especially if you want to leave out the ones that blend in too much with the background or accent, I made this mockup as though I used 8 half yards.

Fabric Refresh - Spooky 'n Witchy by Art Gallery Fabrics

Welcome to day 2 of Fabric Refresh Week here at Pieced Just Sew! If you're just joining me, you can see yesterday's post here. Fabric Refresh Week is pretty much like my usual Fabric Refresh blog posts where I refresh some of my patterns in new fabrics. The difference is that I'm sharing a new post every day this week and there is a special limited-time coupon code hidden in each post that can be used to save on that day's featured patterns!

Today I'm sharing one of my favorite Halloween collections of the year, Spooky 'n Witchy by AGF Studio of Art Gallery Fabrics. It might feel early to be thinking about Halloween with summer just getting underway, but it will be here before you know it and this is the time of year that holiday fabrics are typically released. If you wait until October to start planning, the fabric you want might be sold out!

Art Gallery has released similar Halloween collections for the past few years. I used Spooky 'n Sweeter two years ago to make a Stay Square quilt (I still need to take more photos and blog about it!) and I even featured it in a Fabric Refresh post. If you loved those fabrics but thought you missed out, be sure to check out Spooky 'n Witchy. Some of the prints are the same! 

Let's jump right in with the first refreshed pattern, Ophelia. This jelly-roll friendly pattern also has instructions for fat quarters which is what you'll need to make this in Spooky 'n Witchy since Art Gallery doesn't have precut strips. Grab a fat quarter bundle, pick your favorite 12 prints in a variety of colors, and get sewing!

Friday Fabric Refresh - Spooky Darlings by Ruby Star Society

Are you a Halloween fan?  I don't really like the holiday itself.  Don't hate me!  It's just not my thing.  I don't want to dress up, I don't want to go to a costume party (or any kind of party, for that matter), and I don't want to go to a haunted house.  But for whatever reason, I LOVE Halloween fabric and quilts!  I already featured one Halloween fabric collection for Friday Fabric Refresh this year (if you missed it, you can check that out here) but I couldn't resist doing another Halloween post for Spooky Darlings by Ruby Star Society.  This line is full of pumpkins, black cats, skulls, ghosts, candy, and fancy spiderwebs with little metallic spiders!


I liked one of the refreshed quilts so much that I bought some fabric from Fat Quarter Shop and I'm going to turn it into a real quilt.  I can't wait to see if it turns out as good in real life as it looks in digital form!  If you want to see which quilt I'm making, make sure you're following me on Instagram so you don't miss it when I start sharing!

Friday Fabric Refresh - Ghost Town by Dana Willard for Figo Fabrics

Happy Friday!  There are only 107 days until Halloween so it's time to start working on those spooky projects!  Luckily, the Halloween fabric collections are showing up in quilt shops.  One of my favorite new collections is Ghost Town by Dana Willard for Figo Fabrics.  Adorable cats, cute ghosts, colorful bats, and some great blenders make up this collection.  

If you have been to my blog before, you probably know how this works.  I used my Electric Quilt 8 software to refresh some of my patterns with Ghost Town fabric.  I could never make all of the quilts that I want to make, so sometimes I have to settle for making digital quilts!  I'm sharing them here in case you do have time and want to make one of my patterns in Ghost Town while seeing how it will look before you start.

Friday Fabric Refresh - Camellia by Melody Miller for Ruby Star Society

Happy Friday!  If you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen the post that I made a week ago where I gave you an early sneak peek at one of this week’s Friday Fabric Refresh quilts.  If you saw it, you know that this week is all about Camellia by Melody Miller for Ruby Star Society.  

If you missed it, you can see that quilt below.  It is my Evening Glow pattern and I am obsessed with that dark green print from the collection as the background.  Like I said on IG, I am so, so tempted to buy myself a fat quarter bundle of Camellia and the yardage to make this.  I love it so much!  I really, really, don’t need more fabric though so I am trying to resist.

Friday Fabric Refresh - Cozy Up

Happy Friday!  Have you seen the Cozy Up collection by Corey Yoder?  If you love fall, you will absolutely fall in love with this fabric!  Cozy Up began showing up in shops in the past week but I have a feeling it will go fast!  Don't wait if you want to get your hands on some.  

This week I am refreshing some of my patters in Cozy Up and I can't wait to show you!

Friday Fabric Refresh - Sugarcreek

Hello and happy Friday!  I'm back with another Friday Fabric Refresh!  An Instagram follower asked to see my Window Box pattern in Sugarcreek, so I had to oblige!

I love the Sugarcreek collection, so I decided to devote the entire post to this gorgeous fabric line by Corey Yoder for Moda Fabrics and share several other patterns in the fabric as well.  Let's jump right in!

First up, of course, is Window Box.  Thanks for the suggestion, Jeri!  Now I want to scour the internet for a Sugarcreek jelly roll!
