Block of the Month
2008 - 2009



Patterns for the year's blocks are available in a free booklet at the general meetings and are available for download from this page. Sometimes a pattern is issued via our newsletter, The Patchword.  You may (or may not, as you wish) make up a block from the pattern and either bring it to the next meeting or mail it to the BOM chair. At the meeting a name is drawn from all those submitting blocks and that person (or multiple people, if there are quite a few blocks) wins the blocks.

Cheri Jolivette is the Block of the Month Chairman for this year. Her contact information is in the roster.

Cheri chose blocks to represent Oregon as she sees it. Choose 1/2 yard of sky for your blocks and 1/2 yard each of two fabrics that read as water (one should be lighter or different in texture) than the other. The 11 months of blocks can be put together to make your own quilt top.

You will need Acrobat Reader to read these blocks.
