Days of Christmas Wool Block of the Month
with
Pam Taking the basic patterns and inspiration from Nancy Halvorson’s book 12 Days of Christmas, we have put our own twist on it and are using wool and cotton to make this quilt as you go quilt. In this quilt you will be doing wool appliqué and also some turned cotton appliqué. You can decide whether to machine or hand stitch your appliqué. The background is simply pieced with wool and cotton, adding borders. The backing will be added to each block so that block can be quilted. We will put it all together after the 12 blocks are stitched and you will have a finished quilt. A monthly class meeting will be offered or you can simply pick up your block. A few (whole) kits are still available. Please contact Pam at Smith Owen for more information. Classes are done, but 1 Full kit is available! Includes background and appliqué fabric (12 blocks) Cost: $240 |
