One of the highlights of the end of summer is always a trip to the Minnesota State Fair! Hubby and I had a chance to spend a day at the Fair, and naturally, a stop at the Creative Activities building was at the top of my list. We were on the hunt for quilts displaying ribbons sponsored by Affinity For Quilts. We didn’t manage to find them all, but we certainly enjoyed looking—and admiring all of the incredible talent on display! Congratulations to each of the quilters whose beautiful work was selected for the Fair. We snapped a few photos along the way, so take a look at some of the beautiful quilts that received an Affinity For Quilts sponsored ribbon!

Top-A-Long Sewing Adventure
We’re excited to bring back the Affinity For Quilts Top-A-Long for another season of sewing, sharing, and quilting fun! Our last Top-A-Long was such a wonderful experience, and we’re looking forward to gathering our quilting community together once again.
If you’re new to the fun, a Top-A-Long is a collaborative sewing experience where quilters work on the same quilt top or runner each month. With the cooler months ahead, it’s the perfect excuse to spend a little more time in your sewing room while being part of a fun quilting community.
Over the next seven months, we’ll make a different quilt top or runner each month using patterns from Villa Rosa Designs. Along the way, we’ll also introduce you to some of the talented designers behind these popular patterns. We encourage you to shop your stash and finally use some of those special fabrics you’ve been saving for just the right project!
On the first Saturday of each month, we’ll gather at Affinity For Quilts for our Top-A-Long event. You’ll receive that month’s FREE pattern, enjoy show-and-tell from the previous month, and see the new sample quilt or runner revealed in the shop. And there’s a little mystery involved—you won’t know which pattern we’re making next until the meeting!
Can’t attend in person? You can still participate! We’ll mail your free pattern so you can sew along from home. Send us a photo of your completed quilt top or runner by text or email, and you’ll be included in that month’s prize drawing.
Finish your project each month and you’ll be entered to win a fun quilty prize! Plus, quilters who participate throughout the seven-month Top-A-Long will have a chance at our grand prize: one lucky participant will have the quilt top of their choice professionally longarm quilted, courtesy of Diana!
Whether you join us at the shop or sew along from home, we hope you’ll be part of another season of sewing, sharing, stash-busting, and quilting fun at Affinity For Quilts!
Kick-off Date: Saturday, October 3 , 2026
Time: 9:30am
Instructor: Diana Wendorf and Becky Umenthum
Class Fee: $20.00 (includes monthly Villa Rosa pattern)
