Jolly Bar Quilt Along with Fat Quarter Shop - Week 1

Woo hoo! It's April - that means that it's time to start the Quilt Along with Fat Quarter shop!

I shared last month that I'm joining Fat Quarter Shop this spring for a fun quilt along!  Starting today, Monday, April 5, 2021, we’ll be sewing a different block each week for eight weeks. We'll be making a beautiful table runner that measures 22.5″ x 80.5″.

(Make sure you read all the way to the end - I have some exciting news!!)

Here are the requirements if you haven't had a chance to purchase your items yet: 

Requirements

• Jolly Bar Book Volume 3
• One Jolly Bar  (I'm using the America the Beautiful Jolly Bar by Deb Strain)
• 1 ⅞ yards for Background, Sashing & Borders (I'm using Moda Marbles Sweet Off White Yardage)
  
• Fat Quarter Accent Fabric
• ⅝ yard for Binding (America the Beautiful Lake Blue Barnwood)
• 2 ¼ yards for Pieced Backing (America the Beautiful Barnwood Red Tossed Flag Star Yardage)
• Batting (I'll be using Hobbs Heirloom Premium Cotton Blend Twin Quilt Batting)

For the first week, we are sewing the Treasure Trove Block. The block looks like it has a lot to it, but it came together very easily - and, I love how it turned out!!

Oh - now for the big news!! I will be having a giveaway during the quilt along!! Several companies are providing some awesome goodies (Fat Quarter Shop, Oliso, Hobbs Batting, and Glide Thread to name a few). I'll be sharing over the next weeks how you'll be able to enter for a chance to win!!
