I found this one from Country Threads. I like that it uses different size blocks.

How do I get to the Qboard block of the month? I haven't seen it yet.

I am planning on doing the one on here. I also signed up for the one on Craftsy and pile of fabric to see what they are. Not sure if I will do them or not.I am trying to finish all of my UFO's this year. I also have several other projects I want to do. I really want to do my bargello this year and the new Judy Neimeyer mariners compass quilt. I need more time. Maybe if I quit my job and quit sleeping I can get it all done. Oh and also quit doing any housework. Works for me:)

I really liked the one Shabby Fabrics had last year, they are going to do another one this year. Can't wait to see what it will be.

Please share the site for Shabby Fabrics.

Same here. I followed the free BOM with Amy Gibson last year and enjoyed every minute of it. Of course I didn't make ONE block, but I watched every video (some of them more than once) and printed out all of the lessons, patterns, etc. Hope to do the same this year. I'm familiar with the instructor for this one. I've seen her on TV shows before and have two of her books. The first lesson was in such detail and so informative. I think really want to make this quilt. Love the polka dots but will probably use fabrics from my own stash (well as much as I can, anyway:o).

I did the Craftsy BOM last year and it's ready to go to the LAer. My first quilting class was in 1992 and was a Sampler from Quilts, Quilts, Quilts by this year's instructor. I am very excited to be actually taking a class from her 21 years later! I, too, have both her books. Use to be a staple for all quilters way back when.

I'm not going to do it cause it looks staggeringly difficult, but check out the Affairs of the Heart BOM at Stichinheaven.com. If that isn't the most beautiful quilt I have even seen . . .. Not free, but probably worth the price if you are capable of that incredible work.

I am attempting to do the BOM here on QB but I have not been ablel to print the correct size template from either quilterscache or the pdf file someone also posted... so I hate to cut into beautiful fabric before I know it's going to piece together correctly. Argh.

One block per month for 6 months. Several bloggers are providing the block patterns.

I like this one. Trying hard to pass it by but probably will give in and do it. Thank You for showing us.

I am also doing Craftys. I am self taught and it will be nice to learn the correct way of doing things.

DebbieG 01-04-2013 05:29 AM

believe I will try the Craftsy one again this year...different teacher and different look to the sampler quilt, but I did learn alot from last year, and that was my whole point of taking the class!
