If you participated in this Block of the Month program when we first offered it a few years ago, then you know how special this sampler quilt really is. Classic blocks set together month by month for a treasured Christmas heirloom that is simple enough for a beginning quilter to tackle. Really! Blocks are a mix of classic, basic quilt blocks mixed up with a few more involved ones. Perfect to stretch your skills on those! Book is 117 pages chalk full of fabulous instructions for the Sampler [first part of the book] and then 10 more accompanying projects using some of my favorite blocks from the sampler. There is no way you can go wrong with all that is included in this book. Even those of you who have already done the sampler will want the book for all the extra goodies and the lovely photos. The extra projects include lap quilts, a tree skirt, table and bed runners, pillow covers and more! Created originally with a mix of reds, greens and creams from Fig Tree and some others added in, this time around the entire book has been created with our CHRISTMAS FIGS fabric collection for MODA fabrics. Either way, any fabulous grouping of ½ yds. of Christmas fabrics will have you on your way. So grab a bundle and you are all set to get started!
Here's the "official" intro to the book...
Drawn from the richness and beauty of historical samplers, the Christmas Figs Block of the Month Sampler Quilt by Fig Tree Quilts includes 20 traditional quilt blocks and will be an enduring classic that will be loved through the years.
Continue practicing with 10 coordinating projects for the home including pillows, lap and mini quilts, table runners and more. With this book, author Joanna Figueroa wishes you joy and fulfillment and reminds you to savor each stitch!
