Periwinkle's Block of the Month Program

What is a BOM: 'Block of the Month'?

In general, 'Block of the Month' (BOM) programs are kits for a project that are purchased on a block by block basis. There are different details for every Block of the Month project, such as how many months it runs, how much it costs, whether sign-up is required, and so on.

Saturday Surprise Sampler  

2011-2012 (Round 10)

We have two color-ways for the blocks: 

Etchings: this is a moda grouping designed by Three Sisters.  It is in red, light turquoise, grey and off-white. 

The other colors are 1930's reproduction fabrics, with white background and a few solids. 

 How it works:    Each kit includes the fabric and pattern for a block that will finish at 12" square.  You can do whatever you want with your blocks, from making a queen size quilt,or 2 single quilts, or even just a few baby quilts or table runners.

You can see the finished blocks as they are available on Michelle's blog, under the Page for Sampler Blocks and Quilts, just click on this link:
