    Here I go again! There is a new BOM offered in the keepsake catalog called American Beauty by Marti Michell. The total price for it thru KQ is $336!! Just on the off-chance, I googled it and found it at $259 at one site and LO! HARK! at $149 as a buy all of it complete or as a BOM for a lot more!

    The shop is The Cotton Club online. Has anyone dealt with them? I'm so hoping comments are positive! I can squeak that out of my budget.

    I think the buy it all at once is the best deal you can probably find your own backing fabric.

    I have not used them, but I have done the same as you, found a cool BOM at Keepsake and googled and found it so much cheaper elsewhere!! Good luck!

    It looks like they have been around since the 1980's... so that says a lot right there :wink:

    Thanks, Amma! OK, going to order it now! I loved Marti Michell's patchwork party one that I just finished and the fabric for this one is equally gorgeous.

    The light one! I'd always shied away from using templates, but the first one I did was so accurate and assembled so beautifully that I'll love doing it again. But I do cut my own templates and save them!

    Really pretty quilt, but I can't decide which version I like better. I've never done a BOM quilt. ;-)
