Introducing the Balsam and Loon Lake Quilt Kit (Meadowlight Pattern)

There’s something especially satisfying about watching a quilt design come full circle — from an idea inspired by a place, to a fabric panel, and finally into a complete quilt you can make yourself. Today, I’m excited to officially share the Balsam and Loon Lake Quilt Kit, now available in the shop and ready to bring calm, nature-inspired beauty to your sewing room.

From Panel to Quilt: Completing the Vision

The Balsam and Loon Lake Quilt Kit is built around our painterly Balsam and Loon Lake quilt panel, inspired by the balsam forests and quiet lakes of upstate New York. While the panel captures the stillness of water and evergreens, the quilt kit completes the story — turning that artwork into a finished quilt that feels balanced, intentional, and deeply peaceful.

This kit pairs the panel with our brand-new Meadowlight Quilt Pattern, designed specifically to frame the artwork without overpowering it. The result is a quilt that feels calm and grounded, with just enough piecing to add interest while letting the panel remain the star.

What’s Included in the Quilt Kit

Each Balsam and Loon Lake Quilt Kit includes everything you need to create the quilt top and binding:

• 🧵 Balsam and Loon Lake Quilt Panel

• 🧵 Coordinating fabrics for the quilt top

• 🧵 Binding fabric

• 🧵 Meadowlight Quilt Pattern (included)

All fabrics are carefully selected to complement the panel’s greens, blues, and natural tones, creating a cohesive look that feels timeless rather than trendy.

(Backing fabric and batting are not included, allowing you to customize the finish to your preference.)

About the Meadowlight Quilt Pattern

The Meadowlight Quilt Pattern was created to feel approachable, relaxing, and thoughtfully paced — much like the landscape that inspired the quilt itself. It’s designed for confident beginners and beyond, with clear instructions and a layout that highlights the panel while adding gentle visual movement around it.

If you enjoy quilts that feel calm to sew and calming to live with, Meadowlight was designed with you in mind.
