"ELEGANT BLACK" option
American Beauty Block of the Month, Seven Month Program:Only 1 Membership Left!
Finished Size: 85" x 105" Quilt Description: A beautiful sampler quilt is created with (12) 12" blocks, set on point. In general, the complexity of the piecing progresses from easier to more complex. The blocks are framed, set on point, and a unique star accent is added to the sashing. The crowning touch is created with inner & outer borders. From Marti Michell: "Learning: The blocks are planned to educate on the basics of combining fabric and rotary cutting, plus new and easy ways to cut and piece using Perfect Patchwork Templates." "Success: One or two blocks/month fits into anyone's busy schedule, and there's a beautiful finished quilt top- or a dozen smaller projects- at the end of the year."

Getting Started: Sign up for membership in the Block of the Month. Fabrics will be the same as those Marti used in her quilts, and all prints are from the Wild Rose collection by Marti Michell for Maywood Studios. We'll start shipping in March 2009, and spots are limited. Sign up now to ensure availability. 7 month Auto-Ship. $27.50 per month (plus exact shipping charges) Month 1: Fabric & patterns for Blocks 1 & 2, as well as templates or rulers per your initial order. Also included, an "Oops" fabric bundle (see below), and a "Wild Rose" plastic tote bag to keep your supplies neat & tidy. Month 2-6: Fabric & pattern for Blocks 3-12. Month 7: Finishing kit including fabric for sashing, borders & binding. "Oops" Fabric kit: We're not perfect. We don't expect you to be. If you follow the pattern instructions perfectly , every block kit has plenty of fabric. But, if you make a cutting error, then you might not be able to finish your block. To avoid this frustration, we decided to include an extra fat quarter of the background fabric, and a fat eighth of all the other block fabrics in your first shipment. This will alleviate any anxiety you have about learning to rotary cut using the template set, and allow you an occasional imperfect cut now & then. Yes, it adds a small monthly cost. But, if you don't use your "Oops" fabric for your quilt blocks, you'll have a pretty little fabric bundle for another project! Backing Yardage: Optional 8 yards backing, 20% off, $57.60 (consider ordering early to ensure availability) Group Membership: Many of our monthly programs incorporate a group membership. Because of the variety of options in this program, we ask that everyone sign up individually.

Shipping Months 2-6: $4.90 shipping to USA addresses, $11.45 to Canada/Mexico, and $13.45 to all other International addresses PLEASE NOTE: the website automatically inserts a shipping "estimate" into all online orders. We cannot "turn this feature off" for special circumstances like this program. Please ignore the estimated shipping charge, and rest assured the shipping cost will be as described on this page. Cancellation policy: Running an auto-ship program requires a lot of planning. We need to order fabric and cut kits in advance. Therefore, all members are encouraged to complete the series.
