Oh dear!
I knew keeping this thread running would be dangerous!! (for me that is
g)
I have printed out these patterns and will keep them in a folder. I
might just have time to do something in a rush towards the end of the
time!!!
So seductive, joining in a fun group project.
Thanks Melissa.

it is the first and there is a lot to say...so please bear with me!

==============================================
Since the idea of having an RCTQ block-of-the-month (BOM) was so well
received, it is now official!!!! This is the
2005-2006 RCTQ Block-of-the-Month!

How this BOM works is I will post two block patterns each month near the
beginning of each month. One pieced and one applique. They will all be
available for free from Marcia Hohn's Quilter's Cache website. It is up to
you whether you would like to do the pieced block or the applique block (or
both!). 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. You will then have your very own 2005-2006 RCTQ BOM. At that
time I will collect pictures of the finished quilts (and perhaps of the
blocks along the way too) so we can all see how different each quilt looks
even though we all started with the same block patterns. 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 will be 12" in size and applique blocks will be 8" in size. This is
driven by what Marcia has available in quantity on her site. Feel free to
size up/down if you so chose.
