Just purchase your copy of the book from us for $64.95 and come along on the 4th Thursday of the month from 9.30am - 12.30pm and start making the block of your own choosing.We are not going to be precious about this.

Make this quilt in any colour combination you choose even Asian prints if that is your thing! THIS GROUP WILL CONTINUE UNTIL THE END OF THE YEAR
