Could we clarify...I did PM volunteering for Dec. block but if we are all doing our own thing then no volunteers needed...? Forgive my confusion

JeanieG..........all of the blocks will be a mixture of different technique's. January's is paper pieced, some will be regular pieced & some may even be appliqued. It is up to the person picking the block for that month.

Hobbykat1955.........I sent you a PM. Everyone will make the block that is posted for the current month. You may personalize them by adding your own special touch. Maybe like adding the month & the year, to your blocks or anything else you might think of. Something simple or special to you.

Hi. This is just what I need to get jump-started. My oldest GS just turned 15 & I want to make a quilt for him when he graduates. Soooo, I need to get started. I have a GD & another GS year after that. So my plate is full....A GD year after, another GD 2 yrs later, another GD 2 yrs later & then baby GD 3 yrs after.
It is hard to figure out for a boy but I think stars would be wonderful. Girls are nooo problem.

I've always wanted to do a quilt with a block that represents each month. Thanks for this BOM, I'm really excited to get started.

This year's Calendar theme will more than likely have many different pattern's, not just Stars for a guy. You might want to check out the 15th of the month, Block of the Month 2011, by JudyG, as the whole theme is Stars. I think it would make a great quilt for a young man. Just a thought for you to check out.

Here is the link for the Star pattern's:

Have fun & I will be watching for your posts & pictures of the blocks that you make this year.
