As promised, this week I share Jewells’ finished 2018 TTMT Log Cabin Swap Quilt! It was such a joy to get to finish this project for my BFF and I’m delighted to get to share. I also talk about a To Go bag/toolkit I made for sewing supplies.
I wasn’t up for recording a video this week, but I finished the t-shirt quilt rescue last week, and I REALLY wanted to share. I hope you don’t mind this short and sweet format.
Look for a Gilmore Girls Quilt Along coming August 20, 2025, also on Fandom in Stitches!
I shared on Tuesday that the multi-fandom/history bookcase quilt top I’ve been working on for my husband is at last complete!
Today, I share new blocks made just for this quilt. These 6 simple paper pieced bookcase blocks are perfect for any bookcase quilt project. If you’re looking to make your own Fandom bookcase quilt, you can find a whole load of patterns on Fandom in Stitches. Look for “Bookcase Quilts” in the purple menu for a wide variety of options.
The following patterns are designed by me, Jennifer Ofenstein, and are free for your personal use. Links go to Google Docs that you can save or print. β₯
I forgot to take a photo of this block before adding machine embroidery, but I did make it, and it is in the final quilt. This image is an approximation created using EQ8.

As I continue to work on the bookcase quilt for my husband, I’ve been sharing new designs here and on Fandom in Stitches, both free for your personal use.
Today I have Sting, Bilbo & Frodo’s sword featured in The Hobbit & The Lord of the Rings.
This is a simplified version of the sword with space to add the optional item of your choice. I hope you enjoy! With special thanks to Carol J for testing this pattern.

I’m delighted to share my last quilt block design for the 2024-2025 TTMT BOM. Our event finishes up in April and we’ll have lots of inspiration to complete your quilt at that time!
Designed with my own TTMT quilt in mind, the Rainbow Bear Paw is exactly what it sounds like. This block brought me so much joy to create. I hope you like it, too!
If you use any of my free patterns, I’d love to see what you do with them! Leave a link in the comments or tag me @sewhookedjen on IG.

The Project of Doom and many other bookcase quilt blocks are all on www.fandominstitches.com. Look for “Bookcase Quilts” in the purple menu. Sting is not a finished pattern and is not yet ready to share.

Hello, friends! I’m back at it this week with some progress on the bookcase quilt, including a quilty plan, new blocks, and some fun practice in Embrilliance Stitch Artist 1. I even took a little time to make something for myself. β₯
Today I’m delighted to share my most recent contribution to the TTMT BOM. This is a revisit of two old favorites, one never before shared here on my website.
Originally used for a 2018 Block Swap, the Log Cabin below is a classic. I don’t claim the creation of this block, but I did write the instructions and share a paper pieced version for those who aren’t big fans of traditional piecing. The quilt I made from those original swap blocks is one of my great treasures!
A Sewhooked staple for well over a decade, Perfect Nine Patch Wonky Stars is one of my most used patterns.

This week I talk about saving the TARDIS (cushion!!), my new-to-me almost 70-year-old sewing machine, A Very Important Fundraiser, plus a sneak peek at an in-progress project!
This week, I share Southwest Sonoma Star, a quilt kit finish, two blocks from the #ttmtbom, talk about cleaning out my fabric dresser, and share an old project back in the sewing room for mending!
