I agree that it's a lovely quilt. However the cost of shipping is ridiculously high. It would definitely be much less expensive if you could purchase the whole thing at once rather than month by month. Sometimes the same quilt will be offered as a kit after the BOM is over. Generally you will be told in the offering if the fabric is precut. Some BOMs are generous with the fabric, while others are not. This one claims that you will have leftover fabric and will be provided with a plan for using it, which is nice - but you are paying for all that leftover fabric.
