Activities: block of the month
We are doing the “Ramblin’ Rose Meets Jamestown” patterns by Mari Mitchell for the 2090-2010 BOM. The cost is $2.00 per month. Each month you will receive a fat quarter of neutral fabric and the instructions, the templates are also included with the pattern. You can use the fabric or not the choice is yours. The block is yours to keep.
We will have the additional instructions for completing the quilt top, if you are interested (at an additional fee). There are three different setting options. Bring your completed block to the guild meeting, and your name will go into a drawing for a great prize. The “Ramblin’ Rose Meets Jamestown” patterns are courtesy of High Sierra Quilters.
Here's how it works
Sign-ups begin in July and are limited to 40 members. Each month, for a cost of $2 we will provide participants with a pattern and instructions for the block, along with a fat quarter of neutral tone fabric to use as you'd like.

Your blocks will be yours to keep so you can use them at the end of the year in a sampler quilt or in whatever way you wish. We'd love to see them, though, so as you finish your block each month, show it to us at our table at the Guild meeting and we'll enter your name in a raffle to win 5 additional fat quarters!
Block of the month runs for 12 consecutive months, starting in July and ending the following June. If you are interested in taking part, please sign up at the BOM table at the July meeting. Please bear in mind that your signature indicates an interest in the whole year's project. If you change your mind and don't want to participate later in the year, please let us know so that someone on the waiting list can take your place.
Thank you!
