GE Happenings

We’re so excited to invite you to a full day of quilting inspiration and community during the Frida Quilt-Along, streaming LIVE on YouTube on Saturday, February 7! 🎉

Color is one of the most powerful tools a quilter has. It can create movement, balance, contrast, mood—and it can completely transform a pattern.

A new year is the perfect time to rediscover the fabric you already love. If your shelves and bins are full of saved favorites, 2026 is a great year to turn that stash into beautiful, finished projects.

GE Patterns are designed to help quilters make the most of what they have—whether that’s fat quarters, scraps, leftover bundles, or those ever-growing strip collections.

If you’ve ever joined a quilting retreat or spent time with fellow makers, you know there’s something magical about connecting through creativity. Ideas flow, friendships form, and inspiration seems to pop up everywhere. That exact feeling-of community, joy, and shared passion-is what inspired Gudrun to create GE Quilting Escapes.

If there’s one quilting technique that delivers maximum impact with minimal stress—especially during the busy holiday season—it’s Quilt As You Go. Whether you’re sewing a last-minute gift or decking out your home with seasonal charm, Quilt As You Go (QAYG) projects offer the perfect blend of speed, creativity, and satisfaction.

If you’re gearing up for all the exciting sales coming soon at GE Designs, there’s one thing you’ll want in your shopping toolkit - the FAB Box! It’s our customer-favorite Fill-A-Box program that helps you save on shipping, shop smarter, and make the most of every deal.

Thanksgiving is all about gathering around the table - sharing good food, laughter, and memories. Adding quilted décor to your tablescape is the perfect way to infuse warmth, texture, and a handmade touch into your celebration.

At GE Designs, we believe fabric subscriptions should do more than deliver beautiful textiles, they should inspire and teach too. With four distinct Goody’s Clubs to choose from, there’s a perfect match for every kind of quilter. Here’s your guide

We don’t chase trends. We chase better experiences for quilters.

Over the years, Gudrun has heard one challenge from quilters again and again, “I can never find the right background fabric.” Whether it’s too stark, too dull, or just not quite right, many quilters struggle to choose backgrounds that make their quilt tops truly shine.

Every year on World Teachers’ Day, we pause to recognize and thank the incredible teachers who guide, inspire, and uplift us. Teaching is a gift, whether it happens in classrooms, quilt shops, online video classes, or one-day retreats. Teachers do more than pass on knowledge - they encourage creativity, confidence, and a love of learning.

As the seasons shift and the days grow cooler, autumn invites us to slow down, savor the moment, and lean into creativity. Quilting is the perfect way to embrace the warmth of fall - whether you’re stitching by the window with a steaming cup of coffee, or cozying up in the evening under your favorite handmade quilt.

This fall, let’s celebrate the season with fresh projects, organized spaces, and inspiration drawn from the rich colors of nature.
