Block of the Month Clubs
Join a Block of the Month Club and receive a gorgeous parcel full of loveliness each month! We have been running our popular Block of the Month Clubs since 2016 and have had many happy stitchers from across the world take part! Our exclusive Block of the Month quilts are all designed by Sarah and have a glorious scrappy feel, with fabrics chosen from across our extensive collection. They incorporate a variety of techniques, including Machine Piecing, English Paper Piecing and Applique and to assist with the different techniques, you will find a whole host of tutorials on our Blog HERE. Plus we are only at the end of an email or phonecall should you ever need any help!
Each month your pretty parcel will contain all the fabrics and if required, English Paper Pieces and/or applique templates needed for you to sew that months block, plus of course, detailed instructions for how to piece each block will also be included.
At the end of the term you will have received enough pretty fabrics and instructions to make your very own Block of the Month Quilt Top.
September 2019 B.O.M Clubs
We're busy behind the scences getting new clubs ready for an Autumn start!
English Frame Quilt
Based upon a traditional English framed quilt, this pretty quilt includes a lovely mix of Liberty quilting weight cottons, alongside some cherry picked fabrics from the 'workshop stash'.
The design itself is relatively simple and centres around an appliqued English Paper Pieced (EPP) hexagon wreath, with the hexies repeating in the borders alongside EPP diamonds and appliqued orange peels.
A Little Happy Year!
This quilt is very special to us because it was our very first Block of the Month club design. We are delighted to announce having received many requests, that we will be re running this club later this year.
With fresh new fabrics, but in keeping with the softness of the original.
Happy Hexie Club
It's no secret that English Paper Pieced Hexies are one of our favourite things ever to sew! We know that we're not alone, as our Happy Hexie Cushion kits are one of your most popular picks. We decided therefore, wouldn't it be fun to sew a lap size quilt version. We're thinking a lovely soft colour scheme to include our favourite faded reds, blues, taupe and greys on a scrappy mix of cream and white backgrounds for that quintesential English country look. This will be a perfect project for evening happy stitches whilst watching your favourite programme on tv or as a portable project for sewing out and about!
Current and Past B.O.M Clubs
Here's a little recap of our current Clubs and those that have now finished........ thank you so much to all our members who have taken part!
We're very excited to be running a 'mini' block of the month club this summer. Incorporating lots of happy hand stitches including embroidery, English Paper Piecing and applique along side traditional piecing we will be making a wall hanging size quilt. The fabrics will be a gorgeous mix of Liberty of London Tana Lawns, lovely low volumes and a cotton/linen for the embroidery, which will come pre-printed with the embroidery designs, so need to transfer....plus Sarah will incorporate some of her favourite trims and vintage mother of pearl buttons. The overall feel will be light and pretty... a perfect project for sewing on the go this summer! The Summer Sampler will run for 4 months starting in June and your monthly parcel full of loveliness will include in addition to the pretty fabrics, all the embroidery threads required, plus in the final month, wadding, backing and binding fabric, plus a spool of Aurifil 12wt thread for the hand quilting.
