Join Our 2025 Sew Along for Free Quilt Patterns!

Your commitment? Zero. No pressure what-so-ever. We don’t need anything from you. Isn’t that nice for a change? We don’t even need an email unless you want the once-a-month newsletter to remind you to download your free pattern. Yes, receive 12 free patterns, once-a-month download, no cost, no commitment.

Our theme is “Home is Pieced One stitch at a Time“.

What’s the catch? I don’t think we have a catch. Maybe it is our a way to introduce you to how wonderful the Material Girlfriends Patterns are. Maybe its a way to invite you to be part of our community. Maybe we like quilters just like you. I thought of the catch. The free pattern download link is only available from the 15th until the end of the month. It will be free for a limited 2-week period.

How does it work? Each month, on or close to the 15th, receive an email that the monthly free pattern download is ready (or set yourself a reminder to come back to Materialgirlfriends.com) The monthly newsletter will have a link that will bring you to the 2025 Sew Along page. Go ahead and click on it. The link is also in the header. All the information plus the free download links will be on the 2025 Sew Along page.

Introducing the free January download, My Little Cottage Quilt. It is place mat size, 20″ x 16″ and constructed with ten 4″ little houses. The pattern includes two ways to make the houses, paper-piecing and regular piecing.

Introducing a New Pattern, Boujee

Boujee has multiple sizes and multiple layouts! Queen 88″ x 88″ (shown), Throw 64”x 64″, Twin 64” x 88″, and King 112” x 112”.

Boujee is American slang for bourgeoisie, meaning a person aspiring to be higher than one’s social and economic class. The Boujee quilt is made of a simple quilt block, appearing to be more complex than it is. The clear and detailed cutting and sewing diagrams make the block assembly quick and easy! Enjoy 9 Layout Options!

Introducing a New Kit

Open Options has long been a favorite pattern of our. It is a disappearing L block and very easy to make. It looks like you have a bunch of triangles to sew when you’re really not sewing any! Check out our basic demo tutorial on the Open Option block.
