Our First Saturday Block of the Month program begins on January 11, 2025. We
thank you for joining us in making new friends, winning door prizes, enjoying
snacks, and making a quilt a little at a time!!
- We meet on the First Saturday of each month for the remainder of the year, except for July. The July meeting will move to June 29th due to Festival of Classes (hope you’ll join us for that too!!).
- In 2025 we will be hosting 2 meeting times to 8:30am and 10am.
- Pay for the entire year and your December packet is FREE!
- As a 2025 Block of the Month member, you will receive a 10% discount ALL YEAR LONG on regular priced, in stock merchandise AND on each First Saturday you will save 20% off on your regular, in stock merchandise purchase. (Some exclusions apply)
- Your monthly kits will be prepared for you based on your quilt choice. The monthly presentation will demonstrate the instructions for making your block(s). You’ll learn a variety of cutting/construction methods, the use of rulers, tools, and piecing/pressing techniques.
- If you attend the presentation, AND show your completed block(s) from the previous month, you will receive $5.00 in Basket Bucks.
- Your monthly kit will include the focal fabrics for your assigned blocks. The background fabric(s), border fabric(s), setting fabric(s), backing, and binding are your responsibility, unless noted below.
- Twice the fun! If you choose to do more than one First Saturday quilt, you will pay $35.00 to register for the first one and save 50% for your second registration fee.
