Cherry House Quilts: Catching up

There is so much to say...I'm always at a loss where to start...thank you's first I think!

Thank you again for your kind support about the break in...I'm getting a security system installed today, hopefully I'll be able to start sleeping again, and I will be able to let Melissa return to Baltimore :-)

Secondly, a huge thanks to everyone who sent something to my son Luke and his fellow service men & woman in Iraq - he said that everyone had the best time when the packages arrived, and he sends his love, thanks, and gratitude.

Third, thank you for your patience for the delayed shipment of your pattern orders...everything should be shipped out today.

Fourth, House's House is now available for sale here for immediate electric download

And, last but not least, check out this fun project for the new year!!! Believe it or not, my block is made, and I'm ready to go.

When will the quilt-along begin?

The quilt-along is currently scheduled to begin on Monday, January 24th.

What fabric will we be using?

The bloggers will be showcasing the blocks using the "Sunkissed" line by Sweetwater for Moda. Of course, you are free to use any fabric that you'd like for your quilt.

How much fabric will we need?

We are still working through final fabric requirements, but if you'd like to get a jump start on your fabric purchase, I would recommend a fat eighth bundle of the line (available at the Fat Quarter Shop here.)

You may have some fabric left over, but it will be a great stash enhancer!

You will also need to purchase some cuts of the Moda Bella solids that we will be using in our blocks:

A half yard of each (minimum cut for online ordering) will more than suffice.

We will post final fabric requirements (including fabric needed for layout and backing) as soon as it becomes available.

Still here? Long post, I know.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your friendship, for your kindness, and for your continued support!

Much love,

Cherri

so glad you are getting back to normal there. Guess what was in my stack of presents today (yes today, we waited for my college daughter to get home before we celebrated)? Your book! I was so pleased! Enjoying it already
