Each month during 2008, there will be one quilt block to make. At the end of the year, you will have sampler of traditional quilt blocks. Sashing and border instructions will be included with the last month's block instructions.

Fabric: Here is a suggested chart of the fabrics, along with the yardage requirements to make the quilt as shown above.

Note: All fabrics are Moda Fig Tree Design fabrics. I found them here. If this fabric becomes unavailable, I suggest starting with a floral fabric for the border and then pull four colors from the floral. You'll also need a cream or white fabric for the block backgrounds, inner border, and sashing strips. Here are some other fabric collections that I think would work very well in this quilt: Decadent Victorian by April Cornell Madeira by Blackbird Designs Oak Leaves and Reel by Terry Thompson Shangri-La by 3 Sisters Willowberry Light by Maywood Studios
