ReplyDeleteA long time ago, a block of the month, don't remember the name .hulsey.momdad7@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteI am new to quilting and have downloaded one of Jacqueline's BOM patterns but haven't had a chance yet to try making it.
ReplyDeleteThank you for asking. Nope, I never have done anything like this. Therefore, I am a bit scared. Bianca
ReplyDeleteI started the Splendid Sampler. So much to learn.
ReplyDeleteYes, am doing the Splendid Sampler sew along, and really enjoying it, though I am a bit behind. Hope to get caught back up soon.
ReplyDeleteI have never been a contributor for a BOM, but have joined several. The most recent is the Splendid Sampler.
ReplyDeleteI am doing the Gravity BOM.
ReplyDeleteI did Cozy Afternoon altho it is in my UFO pile to finish. I've done two sewalongs with The Quilt Pattern Magazine's Pattern Pastiche. One is complete, one is waiting for border fabric.
ReplyDeleteI love Jacquelynne Steves and I am enrolled in Maggies First Dance patterns. I started with McCalls Almost Amish and the list from there is so long. crystalbluern at tds dot not
ReplyDeleteWell, this will be my first attempt at quilting, so, no, I've never participated in a BOM before! I'm hoping to finish this one on time!
ReplyDeleteI'm doing Craftsy's 2016 BOM.
ReplyDeleteOh....I've started many and finished few. Most of the ones I do are the Design Mysteries at the Fat Quarter Shop. They usual provide the most fabrics in case of mistakes...:)
ReplyDeleteI am doing the Splendid Sampler. Thank you for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI came by your site via Jacquelyn's site. I have not taken part of a block of the month on line, but have done a quilt block of the month at our local quilt store. I enjoyed that one and like the pattern offered here..so I am looking forward to doing this one.
ReplyDeleteI am currently doing the 365 Challenge quilt - a block a day for a year! I am sure I can find time to do a block a month!
ReplyDeleteJust finishing the online BOM from Crafty Threads here in Tampa and it was a thrill doing the 40 Women of the Bible. Great bunch of ladies
ReplyDeleteI follow along visually with a few BOM's but haven't made one yet - slogging through my UFO's at the moment. Jacquelynne's looks achievable for someone like me.
ReplyDeleteI participate in the Block Lotto (blocklotto.com) each month.
ReplyDeleteJacquelynne's Cozy Afternoon BOM.
ReplyDeleteI am doing the crossroads block of the main nth from fat quarter shop and a mystery block of the month from fig tree.
ReplyDeleteI keep signing up for Block of the Month quilts -- from Crafty to Pat Sloan, etc., and get started but have never, ever finished one. I sure have a lot of patterns printed, saved to storage devices, keep buying fabric, but...no good finishes.
ReplyDeleteHi I have worked on both of Jacquelynne's other BOM, and I am currently working on the Quilt 48 Project. I love learning new blocks and about other bloggers that are willing to share there love of quilting...
ReplyDeleteI did a block exchange with an online homeschool group once. I still haven't put them together though.
ReplyDeleteI haven't done a Quilt-a-long before..tho did sign up for Jacquelynne's Last year...and hospital & surgery & radiation took up my months then. Sooo..signed up for this year! :)

ReplyDeleteGood Morning I love the design and yes I belonged to a Quilts of Valor BOM and I really enjoyed the interaction and seeing all the different fabrics used...it was lots of fun. This one looks to be lots of fun also can't wait..
ReplyDeletesgriff57(at)comcast(dot)net
every year since 2012 I have done block of the months, as I fell in love with the mystery and the challenge. Last year I completed 5 BOM and have started 4 this year
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh I have been a part of sooo many and have completed dozens of quilts in a BOM or a Mystery BOM...love them every month a new pattern. To name a few birdie Stitches, I did the summer sampler series and the simple things just to say a few. Oh and the p2 modern Solids Quilt along oh and the Bloggers block a palozza loved that one.
ReplyDeleteokay I am gonna stop now!!!
I am participating in the Splendid Sampler Group now, and I started Cozy Afternoon, but never finished. I am a very new quilter! Thanks for the giveaway!

I'm currently taking a once/month Baltimore Applique class with Mimi Dietrich and it's tons of fun.

ReplyDeleteI have not yet taken part in a BOM group, but enjoy seeing what others do with them. One day I hope to jump in and do it!
ReplyDeleteI participated in Jacquelynne's Cozy Afternoon QAL/BOM and I'm following The Splendid Sampler right now.

Hi, no I have never participated in a Block of the Month nor a sew along.
ReplyDeleteI've done a BOM but it took me 2 years to do it! So it wasn't an "along."
ReplyDeleteHello ! I was attending the Splendid Sampler, but I'm late with my blocks! thanks
ReplyDelete61ninadias61@gmail.com
I have done several online BOM's the last two being Jacquelynne's Cozy Afternoon and Sew Sweet Simplicity.
ReplyDeleteI'm doing my first online quilt along The Splendid Sampler with Pat Sloan. I'm enjoying the fb group much with everyone sharing their blocks and questions. So much fun!
ReplyDeleteI have not participated previously in a block of the month program. I am recently retired again, (Yep! the first time only lasted 3 months before I freaked out and went back to work.) and I am looking forward to this experience. What appeals is that it is free (which fits right in with my retirement fund) and it is short term. This will give me an opportunity to get my feet wet per say and I will get to meet so many new designers/bloggers along the way. I am looking forward to the social aspects of this program.
ReplyDeleteI have done several sew alongs and blocks of the month. I participated in Jacquelynne's Sew Sweet Simplicity BOM and have done the "Sugar Block Club'and a Scrappy Quilt stitch along.
ReplyDeleteI've been part of several block of the month and sew alongs, but one of the most recent ones that I really enjoyed was the Ugly Christmas Sweater block of the month. So much fun!!
ReplyDeleteI'm still working on the Farm Girl Vintage QAL by Lori Holt of Bee In My Bonnet, the Farmer's Wife 1930's QAL with Angie of Gnome Angel and starting the Crossroads QAL with the Fat Quarter Shop. In the hopper are the Moda Shuffle Sampler and Pat Sloan's Mystery Garden BOM!
ReplyDeletelove the quilt
ReplyDeleteI've done a Leah Day BOM but never a quilt along. Looking forward to anew adventure.
ReplyDeleteI have been apart of a couple Craftsy BOM and also Bonni Hunters 2015 Mystery quilt along. Unfortunately I haven't finished any of these but they are fun to follow along. I'm hoping Maggie's First Dance will break this habit and not add to my UFO pile. It's a smaller project which makes me hopeful. 😊
ReplyDeleteI do a lot of online bom and quilatalongs!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI have done a couple of quiltalongs and got the tops done. I just need to get them quilted.
ReplyDeleteYes. I participate in a wool applique group online.
ReplyDeleteI have followed many the only one I did the blocks was Amy Gibson's BOM on Craftsy. It is finished and was I first quilt.I have a wall hanging to quilt and will not start another quilt until it is finished.
ReplyDeleteI've followed two (I think) of Jacquelynne's M's but neither are finished. Someday... I'm also a member of the 365 Challenge.
ReplyDeleteI've followed along with Jacquelyn's other two BOM's. I've also followed a couple of other BOMs online.
ReplyDeleteI follow Fat Cat BOM's and the Bom's here sometimes others. Jmikebalou (at) aol (dot) com
ReplyDeleteI love BOMs ... I have a list of those I follow along with. I bookmark their sites so I can go through at the beginning of the month and collect them all. Right now, my favorites are the Heirloom Attic wool ornament and the Buttermilk Basin mystery BOM! :)
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to this quilt a long. I have done one before and hope to keep up with this one. Happy quiltong
ReplyDeleteI love these patterns. I'm gearing up for a summer of sewing (it's too hot in Texas summer to do much else). I'd love to win these.
ReplyDeleteCurrently I am in a JenKingwell Blog Group, and I have participated in Lori Holts Blog Quilt Alongs to make her Quilty Fun and FarmGirl quilts.
ReplyDeleteI am so excited to participate in Maggies Dance BOM.

I am currently following several Block of the Months.. Aurifil Designer of the Month, Pat Sloan's "My Secret Garden" as well as her "Splendid Sampler", one hosted by Lynette Jensen on Craftsy called "Garden Charm", and Jinny Beyer's "Cosmos" to name the most exciting. As you can see I love BOM as I learn so much.
ReplyDeleteOh What cute patterns and new bom! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI love block of the months and quilt alongs! Maybe to much haha. The only one I actually completed was the Harry Potter project of Doom by Fandom Stitches. I have many in progress! Splendid Sampler, Farmers Wife, Bloom, My Favorit Things :) the list goes on and on!
ReplyDeleteGood morning. This is my second BOM and I hope to do better than the first try. The first BOM was a cute Christmas quilt with adorable snowmen scenes and I loved it, but didn't yet finish it. It's sitting in my UFO stack - maybe this year.....
ReplyDeleteI am currently giving The Bloom sew along a try. I wanted to practice hand applique. I am keeping up too.
ReplyDeleteI did Jacquelynn's last BOM.
ReplyDeleteI am currently in a group with Jacquelynne and Michelle; two with Pat Sloan, and one with Liz Katsuro. Enjoying all of them, but a little behind due to family circumstance, but plan on catching up this month. Love all of them. So much to learn!
