FQS Designer Mystery BOM Block 9

That time of the month has rolled around again, because when I returned home from my Quilt Run 101, the next block for the Fat Quarter Shop Designer Mystery BOM came in the mail and was waiting for me to get it opened and completed. I get so excited receiving each block, because one I don't know what it is going to be and to see how so darn cute it is time and time again.

This is block 9, which as you can see is another house. Cute, cute, cute...

To recap, so far there are three basket blocks, three star type fill-in blocks, and now three house blocks. Now it has me wondering what the last three blocks will be, and how it will all come together for the final top of the quilt.

So much fun!!

Block 4 (Fat Quarter Shop Mystery BOM)

Here is block 4 of the Fat Quarter Shop Mystery BOM.  My first thought when I opened the package and looked at the block, I noticed that it wasn't a basket.  The first three blocks (see below) were all variations of an updated basket pattern.  I am making an assumption here, by thinking this block and maybe a few more, will be the alternating blocks between the basket blocks.  Oh, wait a minute, it is called a "mystery" BOM.  So, I guess, we will have to wait until each month and see how this "mystery" plays out.  That is part of the fun of this program that they offer each year.  You can find out more about this BOM here.

















Here are the prior month's blocks:

Here I go again!

Yep, here I go again, with the new block of the month from Fat Quarter shop!  I have posted a few times about how I am a sucker for BOM's, but this year I have limited myself to only one.  I just finished the last block of the Fat Quarter Shop's BOM from last year (they start this BOM every June), when they premiered the new one coming this June.  Because they use a new line of Moda every year, and this year is "Avalon" by Joanna Figueroa of Fig Tree Quilts.

My first block arrived today, and in the first shipping, if you opted and paid, they send your finishing kit, backing, and one on the new candies (2.5" x 2.5" squares) which has each piece from the complete line of "Avalon".


But, boohoo, I am still up to my armpits in paperwork, so I will have to wait for a little while longer to get back into my sewing room and get started on this one.  I also need to put all the blocks together of last years BOM.  My to do list is growing again!!!!
