Nice. Perfect points!

What BOM are you working on?

What size are you making?

a few members expressed interest in the Block of the Month activity we used to do here. I decided to revive it. If we get enough participation I'll keep it going. If there is little or no interest, I'll retire it again.

There is no charge. All the patterns recommended will be free from sites that do not charge fees or require people to sign up for memberships or anything else.

The only cost to us is our time and the fabric/tools we use to make the blocks.

(Hmmmm ... maybe I should have included this information in the new announcement. <:) I think I'll do that. )

I made the 12" version of the January block.

My version of the BOM and plan to make it into a placemat for Meals on Wheels…

oooooo .... nice! :thumbup:

and I love your plan! :thumbup:

Made my block into a placemat for Meals on Wheels

I made mine 6.5 inches. I have some other practice blocks I made with 30's fabric that are the same size. If possible I will make each month at this size and see what I have at the end of the year to put together.

Pretty! I made mine the 12 1/2” size, works well for placemats.
