QUILT FOUNDRY BLOCK OF THE MONTH - 1ST MONDAY OF EVERY MONTH |
|||||||||||||||||
|
|
If you haven't been in to the shop to see this year's
new Block of the Month you are missing a real treat. One of our
customers, Patty, designed this quilt just for us so it is a shop
exclusive. We have a few
more spaces left, so you might want to check this one out before it
fills up. We are running this BOM differently than most shops who do a "free block of the month". You pay $20.00 in January and each month you will get a block to complete the quilt. We are still offering the monthly meetings at either 10 am or 7 pm (think fun, friendship and show and tell), but you do not have to attend to get your block. There will be no additional charge for the blocks, YOU CAN PICK UP EACH MONTH'S BLOCK ANYTIME after the first Monday of the month.

Big Ten/Perfect Ten - Saturday April 14 |

|

These fun quilts are perfect for
highlighting some of your favorite prints! Since the two quilts
are practically identical, except for size, you can work on either one
during the class. Perfect Ten is made using fat quarters, while
the larger Big Ten uses half yard cuts. Whatever size you choose,
you are going to love the end product!

Pinwheel - Thursday April 26 |
||||
|
|
Made with either charm squares or yardage, this quilt if fun and easy to make and there is no template cutting. Made to feature the original Summer Breeze fabric by Moda, this quilt won third place in the on-line Quilter Competition in December. By simply reversing the fabrics, this would make a wonderful signature quilt for those upcoming graduation or wedding quilts you have to make.
