June blocks RCTQ 2007/2008 BOM

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 it's not pink and/or purple and you really feel the need to give me this gift!). You will then have your very own 2007-2008 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. All blocks will be 12" in size whenever possible. Feel free to size up/down if you so chose.

This BOM will run from June 2007 through July 2008. This is how the schedule breaks down: =============================================================== June 2007 - May 2008: Monthly blocks June 2008: Completing the Top (setting, sashing, borders, etc.) July 2008: Completing the Quilt (quilting, binding, labelling, etc.) - Done! August 2008: start of the next BOM

that rates the level of difficulty of her block patterns. One pin blocks are fairly simple and they increase in difficulty as the number of pins increase. I will start with one pin blocks and increase the difficulty as we go so that you are challenged, but not overwhelmed! I will be try to keep the blocks at a level most quilters would be able to make. Most of the blocks with only have three colours to them; however, some of them may have more.

Last years finished blocks can be seen at

Dee,

I haven;t even gotten halfway through last year's BOM. SInce I want it to end up being *at least* queen-sized, I'm thinking about combining the blocks from last year with the blocks from this year . Eventually, I'll catch up, but I seem to do more quilting in the cooler months, so it may bot be until closer to the end of this year before I even get motivated to *look* at the blocks again!

Well I have all the pieced blocks done for 2006/07 and I have started sashing for them. Instead of taking the simple approach I decided that I was really having fun with Foundation Piecing and would do a foundation pieced sashing. So........ its not done yet. But of course I will start the2007-08 BOM. You can't have too many WIP right??

Jessamy, how do we submit our pictures to Teri? I would like to send in some pictures.
