The 7th BOM - Going To Make A Big Impact!


Sometimes one BOM just isn't enough.  Yes, you may need to make a lot of BOMs to create an impact. Beware that one can easily become addicted to making BOMS.  Yes, some quilters sign up for multiple BOMs at the same time.  Some designers make a lot of BOMs in a lifetime. There are BOMs that you get the picture of what is going to happen up front, then there are BOMs that are a complete Mystery.   Clearly, there are not any specific guidelines for making multiple BOMs you just need to follow the design for each specific BOM and everything literally falls into place!

SewCalGal is delighted to be able to share insights with you today about a 2014  BOM program that has just been announced and open for registration.  The BOM doesn't officially start until June 2014, when the fabric is released by Moda!

This BOM is one that comes with monthly kits of fabric that will be released in June and it is going to be a Designer Mystery Quilt BOM offered through the Fat Quarter Shop!  And, this amazing BOM is the 7th Annual BOM program offered by the Fat Quarter Shop too.  Woo hoo!  That is 7 years of fun BOM making for FQS.

 I'll confess I've been drooling over sneak peak photos, so I thought I'd show you the fabrics.

Snowbird is a new line of fabric designed by Edyta Sitar (Laundry Basket Quilts) and will be available in June 2014, in two different lines:  Snowbird Prints or Snowbird Batiks.

While yardage will be available at Fat Quarter Fabrics for the entire Snowbird fabric line, you'll also be able to order it in Fat Quarter bundles,Strip Bundles,  as well as Charm Packs.

To clarify, the Fat Quarter Shop will be selling this fabric in June.  You'll be able to purchase yardage and fat quarter bundles to use as you wish, or you can sign up for this super fun Designer Mystery BOM which will use the Snowbird fabrics when you make the mystery bom.  And you know with this gorgeous fabric your mystery quilt is going to be stunning.

This is going to be a super exciting BOM to participate in this year!  It will definitely make a big impact if you make this quilt for your home, or for a gift.
