NEW From Quilter Kate: Sinnissippi Quilters BOM

NEW From Quilter Kate: Sinnissippi Quilters BOM
From Quilter Kate: For our NEW SQG BOM adventure, there will be one thing that you will add at any time to your quilt. Rockford is home of the Sock Monkey! So somewhere in your quilt, you will add a sock monkey reference. I’m letting you know now so that you can think about how you might do that. Use your imagination and creativity.
We will be keeping our quilts “secret” from each other, so just do the best you can at completing each monthly assignment, and then put them all together after that last block! As I said, there will be a suggested layout, but it is really however you want to finish it. There will be plenty of creativity for you to make this quilt your own, but your quilt will have many “sister” quilts.
Please see pdf for further information.
