This Block of the Month is now closed.
Have you been admiring the Dear JaneŽ quilts you've seen in quilt shows and online but been intimidated by the thought of selecting and purchasing fabrics?
Or do you have trouble figuring out what techniques to use to make the blocks illustrated in the Dear JaneŽ book?
Well, we have the solution for you!
We'll be making "Rainbow Jane", a modern brightly colored version of the original.
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY:
Each month we will send you fabric and color illustrated instructions for 10 blocks from the Dear Jane book. We will NOT be reusing fabrics in the main blocks and triangles, which means that you will be receiving 225 different fabrics in the course of this BOM! You will receive a fat eighth (9"x22") of each main fabric and enough background fabric each month to make that month's blocks.
All fabrics will be first quality quilters cotton. The background fabric is Bella Solids from Moda in white. To get an idea of the fabrics you will receive each month, click here.
Since this quilt has 225 blocks, this will be a 24 month BOM. At the end you will have all the fabric and instructions to complete your quilt top, including sashing and borders. The completed quilt is 84" square.
You will have to supply only batting and backing fabric.
Please note: You will need to purchase the Dear JaneŽ book and/or CD seperately. We now have books in stock. You can buy the software directly from the official Dear JaneŽ site.
Signup Fee: $30
We have added the option to have the instructions emailed to you in .PDF format instead of sending printed matter. This will save you $5 off the monthly fee. If you'd prefer .PDF instructions, please leave a comment when ordering.
Monthly fee:
Printed instructions: United States - $30 a month, everywhere else - $40 a month (shipping and handling included!)
.PDF instructions: United States - $25 a month, everywhere else - $35 a month (shipping and handling included)
When you add this item to your cart, you will be paying the signup fee. We will bill you separately for each month's kit, which will be shipped the second Monday of every month. If you'd prefer (and you're in the U.S.) you'll be able to send us a check or money order for the monthly kits.
