Let's share our blocks, cheer each other up and inspire the quilting community!

If you didn't hear about the QAL before, please visit the Growing up QAL page! 

Visit the QAL page to find all information about the quilt layout, all the future blocks and the rules to participate.

I recommend you to subscribe to the QAL announcements via email, so you don't miss out on future posts! You find the subscription form on the same QAL page (at the bottom).

Now let's get down to some details.

This month technique is Raw Edge applique, 
and we have two different blocks to practise 
intricate designs that are actually very simple to make!!

Remember that the pattern for the board is shared for free via email to the people that submitted their email in the Google Form in the QAL page.
If you did that, you should already have the pattern!

If you didn't (or you have troubles with that) just send me an email at tweloq(at)gmail(dot)com and I will get the pattern out to you.

For the full list of rules and explanation on how/where to share your projects, please refer to the post listing all the QAL rules!

And if you need an extra incentive, we are going to have THREE winners for this month. 

So this what you are playing for:

Winner 1

Mad About Patchwork: $40 gift certificate!!

Winner 2

Green Fairy Quilts: $25 gift certificate!!

Winner 3

2 fat quarters from our Northcott featured collection (shipped by me, to anywhere in the world!)

I will draw the random winners between all the people entering a picture of one block from January. Multiple blocks will give you multiple entries, as long as they are in separate picture in a separate link in the linky :).

I will announce the winners when I share the next month pattern.

So, let's link up our fun block, friends!
