The Potting TableI’m beyond excited to announce my Block of the Month Program starting this year! It’s been months in the making and now it’s finally time to share it with the world!Come Quilt with Me!Come quilt with me as we create a garden–themed Block of the Month! Cultivated to introduce seedlings (beginners) to new skills and keep it interesting for the well-rooted quilters (quilting pros), we’ll be using a variety of techniques and having a blast while we complete this planty quilt.This program is meant to be a skill-builder! If you’re well-versed in these techniques, then maybe the Blocks are all you need. Or add on a class to learn something new each month. Want to skip the shopping trip? Then grab a kit! Join the BOM program and get access to monthly blocks.If you consider yourself a visual learner, add the virtual class!Like my quilt fabrics? Don’t forget to add this to your cart.Add to CartAdd to CartAdd to CartWhat is a Block of The Month?A Block of the Month program is a 12–month program. Each month you will receive a digital copy of a new quilt block pattern, an exclusive blog post, and helpful tips and tricks from me. The best part is that you’re not the only one stitching this quilt—lots of people are. Feel free to join our Facebook group, post using #PottingTableQuilt, and enter to win GREAT prizes…we’re going to have a great time.There are lots of great add-ons that will make this program an even more incredible experience for you, but they are totally optional. In addition to the standard BOM program, you can order a quilt kit and/or add on a virtual class component. The quilt kit makes shopping for supplies and fabrics a breeze, and the virtual class is great for visual learners that want to see every step of the pattern from start to finish. Join the program and get access to monthly blocks.If you consider yourself a visual learner, add the virtual class!Like my quilt fabrics? Don’t forget to add this to your cart.Add to CartAdd to CartAdd to CartWhen does the program start?My Block of the Month (BOM) program will start April 1, 2023. I thought this would be a fun time to start on a garden-themed quilt, because the quilt will be wrapping up in the spring of 2024! That said, you can join the program at any time this year and work at your own pace or catch up to the rest of us.What size is the quilt?The quilt that we will make together is a large twin size, measuring 60″ x 90″. Feel free to add or take away blocks to get it to a size that you prefer, though: if you’re looking for a throw size, just nix a single large row to get a quilt that measures 60″ x 75.”What techniques will we be using?This quilt is intended to be a skill building project! There will be at least two months to practice each skill: one beginner and one more intermediate. Techniques that we’ll be working through are:Traditional PiecingBias Tape AppliqueCurved PiecingInvisible Machine Stitch Applique (you can use your favorite method if you’d rather)Foundation Paper PiecingWhat do I get when I join?Great question!
