Block of Month 2013-2014...!

For this Quilting Season, we’ve chosen a

super fun sampler pattern called “Cobbler

and Cream” designed by Kaye England.

Each block is unique, you’ll learn the tradi-

tional way to make each block or go for

the “easy” method and use the Cut for

the Cure rulers. The quilt contains 12

blocks, so by the end of our program

(May, 2014), you’ll have a made a lovely

quilt! We will make two blocks each

month and present sashing & completion

instructions during the last session.

The “rules” for the 2013-2014 program

are: you pay $10 for the ENTIRE pro-

gram (November 2013 through May,

2014). You must attend one BOM class

each month (two opportunities each

month, the first Saturday mornings, or the

first Tuesday evenings). If you miss a

month, you may re-join by paying an addi-

tional $10.

Each month you’ll receive a COUPON

for 20% off the purchase of YOUR

CHOICE THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE

SHOP. Your Coupon can be used anytime

during the current month, but cannot be

combined with other coupons. (Sorry, ex-

cluded are items already on sale, consignment items, gift certificates, and class fees.)

We will hold a DRAWING EACH

MONTH for those that complete both

blocks. DATES for this year’s BOM are

November 2 & 5, December 3 & 7, Janu-

ary 4 & 7, February 1 & 4, March 1 & 4,

April 1 & 5, May 3 & 6.

your OWN LAND-

fill early. In this two day

workshop, you will de-

sign your own quilt pat-

tern and construct the

top. June will assist you

in elements and techniques to create your personal

"one of a kind" quilt.

You will learn the use of color, value, intensi-

ty, and shape to keep the eye moving throughout the quilt. "Y" seams, curved piecing, and many other

techniques will be covered in this relaxing "no rule"

atmosphere. If you have started something and don't

know where to go with it, June can help you master

that too. This workshop is designed for the interme-

diate and advanced quilters.
