New block of the month

2011-02-05T15:13:00.000-08:00

I am busy working on a new block of the month quilt that I designed last year. The quilt has nine blocks all filled with roses and violets. Using a Jinny Beyer border in matching colours I think this quilt will be stunning.

Hopefully the block of the month will be released around Easter 2011.
