Are you planning projects for this new year?  It’s a great time to start a Block of the Month quilt.

Each month you’ll get a quilty package delivered right to your door with fabric (yum!) and a block pattern.   Everything you need for that month’s block will be right there in one package.  Open it up and dive in or pack it away for that month’s sewing get-together.

Women of Courage is a beautiful quilt with beautiful stories to go with it.  Each month, along with your fabric and pattern, you’ll receive a fascinating story of a brave and courageous woman in world history. Block of the Month quilts tend to be beautiful works of quilting art that are worthy of getting treasured and passed down – how wonderful to have a quilt filled with so much meaning.

Instructions for 50 different blocks are included with the Americana Block of the Month.  Sure, some of the blocks will be ones you are familiar with, but with FIFTY! blocks you’ll definitely learn how to make some new ones.

Do you love stars? Star Light, Star Bright combines stars and wreaths, piecing and applique.  Each month includes a 12″ block, a 9″ block, and a 6″ border block.

Sew Spooky is a 6 month Block of the Month, so this one can be finished in plenty of time for Halloween 2013!  Applique bats surround a neighborhood of halloween buildings – some of them friendly, and some of them spooky looking!

If you’ve never done a Block of the Month before, now is the time to start!   You’ll finish a fantastic quilt a bit at a time.  A quilty package will arrive every month.  All the fabric will be chosen – no need to try figure out what goes with what, and no need to buy a 1/4 yard when you only need a little piece.  What’s not to like?!
