BABs, BOMs & Mysteries

We're busy working on lots of fun programs for 2011 and now is the time to get signed up for the fun! At market, we signed up for Marti Michell's "The Romance Continues" Block of the Month program. We're offering it in two colorways - the yellow and blue of Marti's newest collection of fabric, Wild Roses II, and in pink and black of Marti's first Wild Roses collection. Belinda will be the instructor.

We're also starting a Mystery Quilt Club in 2011. The mystery quilt is called "A Quilter's Journey" and you can 'Travel by Day' which features a light background or 'Travel by Night' which features a dark background. Participants will get to select their own fabrics, so we'll kick off the program with a 'Pickin' Party' in January where we'll help everyone select their 4 fabrics for their quilt. Then at each monthly meeting, you'll receive the 'clues' (pattern instructions) to assemble your quilt and solve the mystery of what it will look like. At the end of the 8 months of 'clues', we'll end with a Mystery Reveal where everyone will show their completed quilt tops. Price for the program is dependent on the fabric selected and the size of quilt made, plus $25 for the monthly clues. Sharla will be the instructor for this club.

Last but not least, our Buck A Block program kicked off in November, but it's not too late to join. We've added more colorways because we've sold out of most of the original ones, so stop in and see our new colorways and sign up for one or two! Cost of the program is $1 per month ($3 per month for additional colorways) when you bring in your finished block from the previous month, plus the finishing kits. This program does not have a meeting, so you can stop in anytime during the month to pick up your block kit. Janet and Deb are managing this program.

Stop in and check out all of our 2011 programs!
