Hi friends, Judy here. If your version of watching the game means a lap full of fabric, a seam ripper within arm's reach, and one eye on the screen (mostly for the big plays), then you and I keep the same kind of Sunday. Sound familiar?
That Sunday is exactly why our Los Angeles Quilter ~ Game-Day Gear collection exists. We kept meeting quilters who love their city, love their team, and still spend most of the fourth quarter counting squares instead of counting downs. We couldn't find anything that celebrated both sides of that person, the fan and the maker... so we built it ourselves.
Who this collection is for
This collection is for the quilter who plans her binding around the broadcast schedule. The one who calls halftime "pressing time." The one whose guild knows better than to schedule a meeting on game day, and whose family knows the quilt gets worked on whether the team is winning or not (the stitching is steadier when they're winning, but no judgment either way). If you've ever cheered a touchdown with pins in your mouth, we made this for you.
What you'll find inside
Every design in the collection plays with the language of football the way we quilters actually hear it. First Down, Sew On! and First & Sew are for the gals who treat every weekend like a fresh set of downs at the sewing machine. Sewtertime is our love letter to that moment the game and the project both come down to the wire. The Fabric Draft reframes a trip to the quilt shop as the serious scouting operation it truly is, and Stitch Six celebrates the only kind of score you can snuggle under.
Then there's the roster humor, the designs that put you on a team of your own: All-Pro Stitcher, 100 Fabric Crew, 50 Thread Team, 99 Stash League (because your stash isn't hoarding, it's strategic inventory), 45 Bobbin Crew, 24 Sew Crew, 1/4 Stitch Squad, and the one that makes every quilter grin on sight, #1/4 Quilter. If you know why a quarter inch is worth bragging about, you're already on the team.
Each of these comes on a Comfort Colors Premium Tee, the kind you can wear from the couch to the cutting table and straight through overtime.
A word from Penny
Penny says: "I don't fully understand football. I do understand loyalty, snacks, and a true quarter-inch seam, and this collection has my vote on all counts." ๐ง
