Free Christmas BOM!

Boy, am I behind on this one.  Last year I posted a link for a Quilter's Newsletter free Christmas Block of the Month and have been looking forward to seeing what it will be for this year.

The month of July just got away from me before I remembered to check back at the Quilter's Newsletter website.  This Block of the Month is posted each week on a Tuesday and actually began at the end of June.  No fear though as the blocks are still available to download!

Click here to get to the Quilter's Newsletter BOM page and you will see the Introduction and first block to download along with several more blocks that are available. At their site, you also have the option to purchase the full pattern as a full digital download right away for only $14.99.  If you think you'll forget to go download each week, this is a pretty inexpensive pattern to purchase now.

Here's a couple of the blocks that are in this quilt!

 

    

 

 

 

Please notice that the blocks are fairly small...one is about 2 1/2" x 4" finished but oh so cute!  Think of all the scraps of fabric you could use up from your stash, especially some of those novelty prints you just had to have and now can't remember why!!

Happy sewing,
loreen
