I'll be on vacation next week and not close to a computer. So I thought that I'd post the BOM early instead of having everyone wait until the 7th. Thought there might be some itchy to start! grin

How this BOM works is I will post block patterns each month near the beginning of each month. One is pieced, one appliqué and one paper pieced. It is up to you which one (or ones) you would like to do. You will work at your own pace over the course of each month. You keep your blocks. You do not mail them to me. At the end of the year you will have twelve blocks to set into a quilt. You keep the quilt. You do not mail it to me (unless you really feel the need to give me this gift!). You will then have your very own 2006-2007 RCTQ BOM quilt. When I announce a month's block patterns, I will also include the previous months' as well so if you decide to join along the way you will have all the blocks. Pieced blocks and paper pieced blocks will be 12" in size whenever possible and appliqué blocks will be whatever I can find that is available. Feel free to size up/down if you so chose.
This BOM will run from April 2006 through May 2007. This is how the schedule breaks down: ===============================================================
April 2006 - March 2007: Monthly blocks
April 2007: Completing the Top (setting, sashing, borders, etc.)
May 2007: Completing the Quilt (quilting, binding, labeling, etc.) - Done!
