Happy 2020 from Quilter's JEM! I'm very excited about all we have planned for 2020!
We are now taking online, or in-store registration for the Aurifil Color Builders Club. Registration will close January 31st spots are filling fast!For online registration from the homepage, choose shop>block of the month>aurifil color builders club to register. The cost is $39.99 per month and includes 3-1300m spools of Aurifil 50wt thread, a mystery block of the month pattern, a free gift each month provided by Quilter's JEM, and an Italian dessert at each thread pickup party, (or if you are a snowbird, we will gladly ship the items to you and you can participate in dessert when you return).
So, please join us for the AURIFIL COLOR BUILDERS CLUB, a remarkable (and colorful) Italian adventure! From the lemon groves of Sicily to the pink sand beaches of Sardinia to the clear teal waters of Capri and the stark city grey of Milan...
Each collection is crafted to evoke images of Aurifil's beloved Italian landscape. The colors were selected not only for their aesthetic appeal, but for their practicality in every day use. We think you'll appreciate the Color Builder collections both for their beauty and for their utility. Read the stories, absorb the hues, pick your favorites, and sign up for our 2020 Thread Club today!
Exciting news! We have started a 10-month Mystery Block of the Month designed by Pat Sloan!
The First Month's Block!
We have assembled six different kits for Out West 2020 BOM - check in at the shop or online to see them! Our kits are varied in that they are not necessarily "Western" style fabrics, although I think they will still make a beautiful project. We'll make one 12" block a month for a total of 9 blocks, plus setting instructions, for a quilt that finishes at 58" x 66". After making the first block, I am happy to report that Pat's instructions are well-written and easy to follow!
I don't know about the rest of you, but as pretty as the white sparkling snow is, I need some color in my life! Kayla's Seed & Stems kit is sure to provide just that! We also have quite a few other new kits and samples available in the store.
Explore the Great Outdoors kit makes an adorable cabin quilt. Winter is the perfect time to start this project to have ready for cabin season!
