Block of the Month update

As Debby processed blocks of the month, she noticed we have only a few openings in several of our offerings.  We know many of you are on the fence so wanted to give you an opportunity to sign up so you won't be disappointed.

If you'd prefer to receive all the blocks in one shipment, let us know.  We are happy to combine shipments to save postage.

Lynette Anderson's "Anderson's Farm" is a mystery quilt.  We don't know what the finished quilt looks like but can share the first 3 months.  We know the quilt will finish approximately 38" x 42" and the program lasts 10 months.  Each month you'll receive a pattern, a hand painted button, and fabric for $19.95.  If you'd prefer to receive only the pattern and button, the monthly cost is $16.95.  We have 2 openings left.
We have 2 openings left in "Wooly Sheep" which is our $10 block of the month.  Each month you'll receive a pattern, background fabric, and wool for applique.  During the 12th month, you'll receive the 12th block, sashing, borders, binding, and buttons for embellishment.  We have an optional thread kit available (cost varies per month but average $4 per month).
"Merrie Christmas" has been very popular; we are on our second cutting.  The pattern is designed by Staci of Buttermilk Basin - full size reversed templates make working on this project a breeze.  Each month you'll receive a pattern, background fabrics, and wool for applique. During the 9th month, you'll receive the final block, borders, and binding.  Finished size is 47" x 47".  Cost is $19.95 per month.  We have 7 openings left.
"Camp Runamuk" is exclusive to Sew Graceful.  It is been very popular; we're on our 4th (and last) cutting.  Each month for 12 months, you'll receive a pattern, background fabric, and wool for applique. During the 12th month, you'll receive a block, borders, and binding.  Quilt finishes 48" x 56".  Cost is $24.95 per month.  We have 4 openings left.
We have 1 opening left in "Love Letters" by Lynette Anderson.  This quilt is mostly cotton with a little wool added (if you would like us to substitute fabric for the wool, please let us know).  Each month you'll receive a pattern and fabric to make a block.  During the 10th month, you'll receive fabrics for the sashing, border, and binding.  We also used a few buttons and will include them each month.  Cost is $26.95 per month.
If you don't see anything that tickles your fancy, don't despair.  We are working on three new blocks of the month and bet you'll see something very soon that inspires you.

We can't close without sharing a new project. We don't know what it is about owls but they always bring a smile to our face.  When we saw "Three Wise Owls" at quilt market, we knew we had to buy it.  Your $14.95 kit includes the pattern, background fabric, wool and buttons.  As you're planning your summer vacation, this would be a great one to stick in your stitching bag. 
We have more to share but this is getting long.  We'll be back next Thursday with more to inspire you.

See you soon.

Darlene and Debby
