It’s been a while but I’m excited to be back in this little corner of the internet to announce that I’m hosting a free Block of the Month next year. I’ve already talked about it on Instagram but let me tell you all about it here, too.<\/p>\n

First, it’s not really a block but a row we’re sewing every month. Here’s the chart of the finished quilt:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I realise that it’s not easy to see the quilt properly in this little picture so the link for the chart is here: Chart BOM24<\/a><\/p>\n

The chart will help you decide whether you want to join in and also make it easier for you if you’re a planner. I’m going to wing it (and probably be envious of everyone who’s planned their quilt in advance) and stick to my technique of choosing my fabrics as I’m sewing.<\/p>\n

Every month you get three ‘blocks’ one centre block and two end blocks that square up the quilt.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The width of your quilt depends on how many centre blocks you make. Ten blocks in total give you a quilt that’s 60″ wide. You can of course make it smaller but the length, if you stick with all twelve rows is 72″. If you would like to make your quilt bigger, I can add more rows, but at the moment there are only twelve. Here’s the link to download the rows in the picture above: Chart Pieces BOM24<\/a><\/p>\n

Every first of the month the blocks will be ready to download here on the blog. If you would like to join in and see what others are making you can check out the hashtag #sharksdinnerbom24 on Instagram. This is where I’ll be posting my progress.<\/p>\n

And because you should always end every blog post with a cute picture, here’s one of Olive Nomura Shoulderhopper.<\/p>\n
