Welcome to my new Sew-Along! We will be making the classic quilt,
Burgoyne Surrounded which refers to battle that had a significant impact in the Civil War. We will be using the free pattern by Lyn Brown (permission given & confirmed). Please check out her blog/website and her patterns at:

Making this quilt as a Sew-Along gives us lots of advantages. We can choose our own colors, we save on postage and we have no deadlines. Remember, this is not a race. Sew at your own pace and please share your progress.
We love pictures!!!

t's get started with the supply list, options and a little house keeping. I plan on posting instruction steps approximately every two weeks - total of seven steps - unless the group prefers something else. The block is 15 1/2" unfinished. The smaller quilt calls for 12 blocks and is 59” X 77” with no Border. The larger quilt calls for 20 blocks and measures 77” X 95” with no border. There are instructions for border options in the last set of instructions. You may make a 2-color, a 3-color or a scrappy version of this quilt. Lots of choices!
The yardage requirements are in the supply list below:

Any questions - please let me know!
Thanks -
