Join Our Holly Jolly Quilt Along 🎄✨
If you’ve been dreaming of making a festive quilt just in time for Christmas, our Holly Jolly Quilt Along is the perfect project for you! Designed with beginners in mind, this fun quilt along will guide you step-by-step through the process of creating a beautiful holiday quilt—one block at a time.
After all, it’s always Christmas here at Candy Cane Ridge, and we love sharing that joyful spirit through quilting.
Whether you’re new to quilting or looking for a relaxing seasonal project, this quilt along is all about learning, creativity, and enjoying the journey.
What Is the Holly Jolly Quilt Along?
The Holly Jolly Quilt Along is a year-long quilting project where we’ll make one block each month. By breaking the quilt into manageable steps, you’ll build skills and confidence while watching your quilt come together.
Over the course of the quilt along, you’ll create:
🎄9 festive 12-inch quilt blocks
🎄Coordinating sashing and cornerstones
🎄A polished border
🎄A beautifully finished quilt—ready for Christmas!
In Month 11, we’ll wrap everything up with detailed finishing instructions, including quilt assembly, borders, and final touches.
That means by the time the holidays arrive, you’ll have a cozy handmade quilt to display or gift. 🎁
