The February BOM was fun and colorful. Elaine won the drawing for the Modern Applique book and I (woohoo) won the block drawing.
The March BOM will be Dinner Date by Film In The Fridge blog.
Block: Dinner Date
Blog: Film In The Fridge
Size: 4 small squares combine to make 1 block (see example below)
Colors: ALL SOLIDS - Any gray for background, white strips, your choice for other colors
You can find the tutorial here: http://filminthefridge.com/2010/06/25/dinner-date-block-tutorial/
p.s. Be sure and check out this block on her blog. I was very surprised how the blocks come together in the quilt and love the design.
