This wonderful
little wall hanging
uses Wooly Lady’s
bright, fresh colors, flannels for
the background,
and Lori Smith’s
cute design. A
simple design combined with the
ease of wool appliqué makes this 12”
x 12” quilt go
quickly. You will receive two blocks a month for 7 months
with the last month including the flannel for the setting
triangles. This BOM can be done on your own or you can
work on it in the 3rd Friday Wool Club.

Tidbits
Christmas, Christmas, Christmas!
We have loads of fun Christmas and Winter kits, fabric and
patterns.
From quick and easy to more detailed we have just the
right project for those on your list. Stockings, Advent calendars, pillows, wall hangings and quilts, you want it we
have it. Come and visit our Christmas section and see
what you can find.
We also have some great gift items for the special people
on your list. Don’t know what your quilting friends might
like? There’s always a Memories gift card!
BOM Regulations
When you commit to a BOM program, you
are guaranteed a block kit each month.
Block kits are generally available by the
10th of each month. When you sign up we
will record your credit or debit card number. These numbers are kept in a secure
location. If you have not picked up your
block by the 15th of the month we will
charge it to your card and ship it to you
(shipping charges will be applied). Occasionally we may have to make a substitution on fabric. If this occurs, the substitute
fabric will be of comparable quality and
will blend with the rest of the quilt.
We reserve the right to substitute fabric
in our kits and Block of the Months when
necessary. We thank you for your understanding.
