Publisher's Synopsis
Build your quilt making skills one block at a time. Sarah's new book, Happy Days, is the full pattern from her 2016 Block of the Month. Finished quilt size is: 108" (275cm) square (Blue version is 78 1/2" (196cm) square When Sarah started to make this quilt in 2015, it was a bit of an experiment. She hadn't ever run a Block of the Month program before, and she had no idea how it would be received. She also knew that her format for a BOM would be slightly different - she's never one to do things in the "usual" way. As a result, this new Happy Days book comes to you as a rather unique proposition. It is only one quilt pattern- however, it contains enough work to keep you busy for a whole year, broken out into chapters. AND design is provided in 3 colorways. It is quite a complex design, containing traditional piecing, Foundation Paper piecing, English Paper Piecing, needle turn applique and a lot more - however the book is broken down to be made in order of difficulty from start to finish, so you build on your skills as you sew. This quilt has been made by many hundreds of people before you even see this book, so there is a gallery of quilts for inspiration for you to access, and you know the pattern has been well tested! What will you learn with this Block of the Month book? Traditional machine piecing Making easy bias tape Making perfect circles Instruction on using specialty rulers Hawaiian applique Appliqué Foundation paper piecing, English paper piecing Hand quilting instruction The quilt will finish at Queen size, however there will be advice on making the quilt smaller and changing the border size.
