Quilts from El's Kitchen Block of the Month
Paula and Julie's fifth block of the month quilt togetheris underway. There are a few spots left.  We will be accepting registrations through the end of February. This year's inspiring quilt comes from Eleanor Burns' newest book, Quilts from El's Kitchen. All 17 quilt blocks are "traditional"-some are easy and familiar to sew, while others have a new skill to learn. You can choose to make your quilt with 12 inch blocks (96" x 96" finished) or 6 inch blocks (50" x 50" finished), and a number of border options are included. Our sample showcases 12" blocks in cheery reproduction fabrics from the 1930's, but the pattern lends itself to any variety of fabric styles (many different fabric options are pictured in the book) and is fat quarter friendly. Each block has a simple recipe to go along with it which calls for just a few ingredients and basic skills to serve up! Please see our website for more details.
