Roundabout Quilt-Along!!!

It's Here!!!   Are you ready to Quilt-Along with me???   I am just thrilled this morning to share the design for this years annual Happy Quilting Quilt-Along :)   So without further ado . . . Here's the Roundabout Quilt-Along!!!!



I am so very excited for this Quilt-Along!!!  It is going to be so much fun :) Just like in previous Quilt-Along's, there will be easy step-by-step bi-weekly directions, lots of block sizes and layout options, gorgeous (and I might add endless) fabric options, fabulous prizes that include weekly progress prizes and Grand Prizes at the end, but most importantly lots of fabric fun with friends!!!  And as you can see, we are playing with curves again, but no worries if you are new to curves,  I'll show you just how fun they can be ;)

The Quilt-Along will start next Wednesday and run until the end of November with the Parade in December.  That means everyone will have a finish just in time for Christmas and what better Christmas present to tuck under the tree for yourself!!!  Here is the schedule . . .

August 30th -Intro, Fabric Requirements, and Prizes Announcement
September 13th - Cutting
September 27th - Flying Geese
October 11th - Half Square Triangles with Goosed Corners

  3. I would love to join the QAL! Is it possible to still join in if I want to use the pattern for a table runner? The smaller size is perfect for the time I have in the next few months.
