2006-2007 RCTQ BOM for May

How this BOM works is I will post block patterns each month near the
beginning of each month. One 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!

Marcia Hohn has a pin rating on her site (www.quilterscache.com) 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 our difficulty
as we go so that we are challenged, but not overwhelmed! I also
consider myself a fairly novice quilter, and these will all be blocks I
would be willing to try (well, maybe not the appliqué). Most of the
blocks with only have three colors to them; however, some of them may
have four.

You are more than welcome! I just hope that I can keep up with the
blocks myself!

I can hardly get started. I may have to try that applique piece.

Hi Danielle,

I think it is really cool how you just keep adding to the original
email. That way anyone who starts late (or who loses the first one)
always has the exact info from you.

Thanks for being so organized! (I haven't even looked at the blocks
yet!)

Grrrrrrr I meant to say I can hardly wait to get started. I think my
fingers have alzheimers.

Actually, thank Melissa in NJ for that. I got it from her! I got the
whole message from her, just did some slight editing to fit for me.

I think everyone should try the block of the month! I'm even going to
start emailing it to my mother and see if I can't get her to do it too.
She was a little frustrated with the fact that I sew blocks so much
better than she does. I told her it's because I am always trying
harder things to challenge myself and reading everything I can get my
hands on!
