Blooming Joy: Petal Perfect Block of the Month

Ready to Bloom in 2025?
Begins January 28, 2025

Becky Goldsmith, the creative force behind Piece O’ Cake Designs, invites quilters of all skill levels to join her Blooming Joy Block of the Month Quilt-a-Long! This choose-your-own-adventure BOM lets you tailor the experience to your skills, interests, and schedule. Whether you’re a seasoned appliqué artist or just starting out, Becky’s expert guidance will make 2025 a year of creativity and joy.

The Pattern

The heart of Blooming Joy is its stunning digital pattern. Each month, new blocks or borders are released to keep your creativity blossoming. 

The appliqué shapes are big and friendly, making the designs accessible to all skill levels. Appliqué by hand or machine—whichever you prefer.

Late to the party? No worries—previous blocks are available when you enroll. Purchase the pattern here on Creative Spark or pieceocake.com.

Appliqué Mastery

Want to refine your skills? Becky’s Appliqué Mastery course covers everything you need: needleturn, wool, prepared edge, and machine appliqué. Learn to handle curves, tricky points, and achieve flawless invisible stitches. Packed with comprehensive lessons, this course ensures quilters of all levels can tackle Blooming Joy with confidence and ease.

Blooming Joy Zoom Meetup

Now, let’s talk about the heart of the program—the Blooming Joy Zoom Meetup. Join Becky each month for a 60-minute live session packed with tips, techniques, and inspiration. 

These meetups build on foundational skills found in Applique Mastery, covering everything from color palettes and border design to stitching side triangles and finishing touches. But these meetups are so much more than just classes. They’re a chance to connect with Becky and fellow quilters in real-time. It’s like having a personal quilting coach—and a room full of friends—right there with you.

Meetups are on the fourth Tuesday of each month in 2025. The first meetup is on January 28th at 11 am Pacific Time. 

Can’t attend live? All sessions are recorded and available through 2026. After that, recordings will be edited to highlight key information for easy reference.
