Modern Block of the Month

On Sunday I recommended the book, Block Party, which turns out to be very timely because Sew, Mama, Sew! just started a Modern Block BOM, led by one of the authors of Block Party, Alissa Haight Carlton.  I fell in love with the July block immediately, so I will be sewing along each month. 


If you'd like to join in, go to the Sew, Mama, Sew! blog and/or check out the blocks on the flickr group as they start pouring in.

  4. We are doing two quilt along projects together. The BOM and the yo-yo one. I love the colors in you BOM block. I too fell for the block when I saw it so decided I would sew along. The yo-yo's are simply an addiction!

  7. Sewing is my mother 's hobby and she never created this type of design, your photograph is best for inspiring her.
