Loving the 16” block! ♥♥♥
I was so happy to get the cheater cloth at my LQS. I already had the fat quarter bundle. Gorgeous line.
Thanks. I am sewing along and love the large size.
I am doing both sizes. Fun. Using April Rosenthall’s Homestead collection that I’ve had in my stash for awhile.
I don’t know why but I’m having trouble printing off the pattern. Love love love everything you and Chelsi do!😊❤
Cute block. I am loving the Strawberry Lemonade collection.
Thank you for all you do and for the free pattern I love your fabric collections and I always get it from my quilt shop.
Thanks. I appreciate your videos.
I have learned to love stars since sewing along with your BOM....
Uh-oh I'm afraid 😱of this block. Those rectangle pieces gave me a hard time last year. Hopefully, it won't be too difficult for round 2. I am going to be mixing my fabrics using Strawberry Lemonade, Bountiful Blooms, and Simply Delightful. When I made my January block, I didn't pay attention to the size. When I finished, I was surprised by how big it was. This is the largest block I've made since I started my quilting life. 😉🥰 Thank you Sherri❣
Beautiful blocks and I adore the larger size! Thank you so much!
I bought a whole bolt of your Strawberry Lemonade cheater print. I have two big projects planned for it and hope to get a few smaller projects from it. Also got a fat quarter bundle of Strawberry Lemonade. LOVE IT!
Love the larger blocks. Very pretty.
What a lovely block❗
Love these blocks. My first BOM with you. So exciting 🎉
Finished my January block on Saturday. I am using a fat quarter of Bountiful. I am doing the 8.5 block and discovered that I am now getting a challenge, since the center of the star borders are small. Love it!
I am so glad I ordered a fat quarter bundle of your gorgeous Strawberry Lemonade! Unfortunately I just tried to order the hexie cheater print from Fat Quarter Shop and it’s all gone already!!!! Ugh!
Donna Jordan of Jordan Fabrics did a tutorial using your Strawberry Lemonade line. Very pretty quilt!
Love it thanks, Sherrie.
Thank you for all that you do!!!!
I agree ! Love the large block this year!❤
Love this block. I’m going to give it a try. 😊
Beautiful blocks!
LOVE Strawberry Lemonade!
Thank you very much for sharing.
Love this block of the month ❤ Do you think a layer cake with a little additional yardage for background, sashing, and borders would be enough fabric for the smaller quilt?
Lovee the bigger blocks
Thank you so much.
I love this block. I have never done a BOM with you. I think this is going to be so pretty. I also love your cheater print.
Thanks Sherri!! I love all the blocks. Just finished the last sew along...waiting on Strawberry Lemonade to arrive at my doorstep...I bought a fat quarter bundle..will that be enough fabric?
Love it!
thank you sew pretty
🙏😊
I love this size. I am using a Happy Days FQB. I have Strawberry Lemonade, but it is so hard to be to dig into the newer FBQs. It is like I am waiting on the perfect project but never know which one. Anyone else have this problem?
Thank you! And I love the quilt hanging on the back of the door. Is there a pattern name you could share with us?
I'M NEW TO QUILTING - can someone please explain why quilters create "blocks of the month" or just a block of some sort - if I have a pattern, wouldn't I just create the blocks as instructed? so why would practice so many different types of blocks and what would I do with them?
Hi Sherri...I bought yardage to do the star borders with all the same fabric. Is there there enough yardage in the fat quarter bundle if I want to make the star borders all different? This is my first BOM and plan to do January and February blocks this month. I'm excited to get started
What is the name of the hexagon fabric and the red gingham. Trying to purchase
??????How much of the cheater cloth do we need for the backing? I’m making the small size blocks.
Check It Out! Donna from Jordan Fabrics just posted a tutorial using Strawberry Lemonade!
I watched that last night…twice. Already have my Strawberry Lemonade just had to order the pattern.
Is there info to use triangle and flying geese paper.
👍❤️🙂
Did you say the name of the backing Fabric if you did I missed it.
Thank you for doing these. I've never done a BOM before though one time I think I tried ri save the blocks all year but didn't even succeed there!! (Not yours.)
I'm loving this quilt along, but was disappointed to see that the cheater fabric is so hard to get. I went to Fat Quarter Shop as soon as I watched the video & they were sold out. Google only brought me to 1 yard cuts or panels. Oh well, it would have been perfect for a Grandmothers Garden quilt I'm making. 😥
Check Jordan Fabrics.
@@karenmccleary7616 They have the collection, but not the 60" cheater fabric for backing. 😥
I’m disappointed in Moda! They should have printed a whole lot more. That means people can charge more as it’s not available.
The cheeter fabric is sold out at fat quarter
I believe they have ordered a reprint of the cheater fabric and the tone-on-tone white , but they said it would be a couple of months before it comes in.
Why would you not make the backing fabric 90” instead of 60”? That just doesn’t make sense.
Shhhhhh
