Yep, that's the title of my new BOM (block-of-the-month) that will start on Monday, April 1st. No fooling! And just like my last one, it's FREE!
It's actually going to be a ROM (row-of-the-month) because on the first day of every month for the next five months, I will be introducing a new row.
September will be the sixth and final month which will include the finishing instructions.
You will have a month in which to complete each row before the next one is released.
This quilt includes my three favorite things...redwork embroidery, piecing and wool applique, all executed in a primitive, scrappy style. The entire quilt was made from scraps or from a variety of fat quarters that came from my stash.
Of course there is always the option of substituting the wool elements with cotton and completing the applique either by machine or by hand.
The finished quilt measures approximately 66" x 70".
Here's how it looks on the bed in Emily's room...
and from the doorway looking into the room.
Please feel free to grab the button below or the slightly larger one on my sidebar and link it back here to my blog in order for you to be able to share it with those who have not yet found their way here.
I look forward to seeing you all on Monday, April 1st when you will be able to download in PDF format the introduction, instructions, photos and line drawings for the first row.
Will you be joining in?

Thank you!
What a fun Spring and Summer project. I plan to make it from my scraps so there won't be any wool (so sad). But this BOM will reduce my scrap stash. Thanks in advance.
Adorable~~~ you are awesome!
Love it! I don't have a spring quilt to hang in our family room so this will be perfect. Thanks for sharing your talent with all of us.
I just sat and looked at the quilt in total awe! it is the most beautiful spring quilt. I love it.
Thanks for inviting us along to make our own. Can't wait to start.
Thank you!

This looks great I might just have to be brave and have a go at this. Is it suitable for a beginner ? I've not done anything like this before. Have you a list of materials needed to make it or will they be posted on Monday too?
Thanks and have a lovely weekend

Oh Kaaren, it's beautiful! You are a talent ! I will be doing machine appliqué since I do not do much by hands anymore with my arthritic hands. You have outdone yourself! I'm always in awe of your work! Thank you for being such a blessing to so many. God bless you.
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing your craft.
I love, love, love, what you've designed. Anxiously awaiting the first download tomorrow. Thank you so much for your generosity.
