Sew Along Dragon Fruit Quilt | Tula Pink Pattern Quilting Beginner
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 ก.พ. 2025
- Welcome to my sewing room! We are sewing the first month of *Dragon Fruit Block of the Month* in our Tula Pink Sew Along! This striking quilt is called Dragon Fruit, which features Tula Pink’s signature vibrant colors and intricate, playful designs. I’m especially thrilled to be working on this quilt, as it’s the perfect transition for me from traditional old-fashioned calico prints to more modern and dynamic fabrics-without being too bold or overwhelming.
Throughout this sew along, I’ll guide you step-by-step as we piece together the Dragon Fruit quilt, sharing tips and techniques to ensure each section comes together smoothly. This project is ideal for all skill levels, whether you're a beginner looking for a fun introduction to modern quilting or an experienced quilter ready to experiment with fresh patterns.
I’d love for you to join in, share your progress, and connect with other quilters using #TulaPinkSewAlong. Together, we’ll create something truly beautiful and enjoy every step of the process!
Let’s jump in and sew this eye-catching block!

I loved this quilt, the minute I first laid eyes on it. I'm just an FPP chicken. Your video's help. I just need to get over the crud I got for Christmas, so that I can do an easy "sample" block before I tear into this. I don't want to ruin this quilt. I sew with no shoes, but not barefoot. I did have to learn to sew left footed, after I tore my meniscus and MCL, right before Thanksgiving. Timing is everything. :) Thank you for doing these.
@sarar.5407 yikes! Hope your knee feels back to normal soon! Yes, the FPP is really pretty fast and fun. And if you mess it up these are all Tula basics I think so you could re order... ot just pull in something else too! Many of her other fabrics would work just peachy!
You are so inspiring me to do this quilt! Gorgeous FPP work and colors. My birthday is next month. Is that a good enough reason to treat myself? Thanks for all you do with your channel. Much appreciated!
Oh, thank you so much for the kind words! Happy Birthday!
I enjoy following along with you! It helps keep me accountable to get this bom done on schedule. Haha😂 thank you for being willing to give good tutorials for those who might need it. Merry Christmas!🎁🎄
@aphillips3602 thank you so much! Hope you have a wonderful holiday! Merry Christmas!
Your tips and attention to detail are second to none Miss Kelly. Thanks so much for all the help on these FPP blocks. I have the same kit but haven’t had the guts to start it. 🫣 when I do, I’m so glad I have these tutorials to reference back on. Sich a great help. Merry Christmas and cheers to a great 2025. 🤗🤗
@@debbiedobbins6785 so glad it's helpful! I love getting to share!!
You are such a true quilty friend showing all of your tips & tricks for these bllocks. These videos you've been making are amazing and so much appreciated! I got this BOM because it's beautiful, but also because I wanted to get better at FPP. I don't always comment how grateful I am because I watch on my TV, but I just had to get on my phone and tell you that you are amazing and what you do is just the best. I've learned so much and implemented your helpful skills in making this quilt. I'm not sure what was up with your sound, but this video seemed to be normal, and then the volume suddenly would go quiet. 🤔 your other videos didn't seem to do that. Thank you so very much for all you do! ❤ ~Linda
The software I use has had a couple updates and I've been struggling with sound. I'm on it ! Thanks so much for all the kind words. I really love getting to share:)
Thanks!
Glad you found it useful! Thank you so much!
You tips are so helpful and appreciated! Thank you.
@@janehollingsworth8108 so glad they are helpful!
I did the first two months in the last 2 days on my vacation! I got this month starched today, so I have to wait for the sewing. I also cut out a Lo and Behold plaid quilt!
You’re on a roll! That’s how I like to sew.
I am not remembering this quilt, so I need to look back on your videos and watch the previous ones. I love this quilt n fabric!! 🩷🩵🧡
Thanks so much Cindy!
Hello, Kelly! I’m excited to see your tutorial for month 3! I have finished my individual blocks and am getting ready to put them together tonight. I was pleased with how they came out. I’m a relatively new quilter and am happy with how my points are coming out with fpp. I guess I’ll keep these scrappy triangles to use in something? 🤷🏼♀️ I DO love scraps and hate to waste
@RawKnitter awesome! This is such a bright fun quilt. I think I'll like having all the left overs in a sewing machine mat:)
Dollar tree has those small mates for $1.25, they are the nice mates
@@ValerieBrown-le7ew great tip!! Thanks so much!
I'm delighted to find your tutorial for this quilt. I actually started with Month 2 blocks as they were easier for my brain as my first FPP. Thank you so much for all your effort in creating the tutorial. Question for you: StichinHeaven is doing Tula Pink Moon Forest II/Judy Niemeyer BOM--Jungle Magnolia Block of the Month - Begins June 2025--Would you please consider doing this quilt with your tutorials? Hope so! Okay, off to sewing Month 3; thank you so much💕💕
I am so glad you're finding it helpful! I love that you're already planning your next project - maybe I will try that one! I need to check it out!
If it tears just use scotch tape
@@yvetteheartso3406 there you go!
I'm a barefoot sewiest. Kelly I have noticed in the last 3 or 4 videos your sound has been going up and down. Have you noticed this when you edit? or has anyone else said anything? I do love your videos and watch everyone.
Thanks so much for rhe feedback. The software I use to edit has had a couple updates and I've been struggling with sound. I'm so sorry! But know I'm on it:)
Always barefoot.... Florida/Southern gal
@@kristamorehead-mcnutt1714 haha! Love it!!
