I'm working with another publisher to create another quilt block a day calendar! I have thousands of blocks from 18 different calendars (can you believe it?) I hope we can avoid templates and just stay with rotary cutting of the patches. But, as you can see from the next block, little leaves add some interest to a simple 16 Patch on point!
Patches and Leaves is the March 21 in my Block a Day Calendar (Martingale, 2007-2017). It is a 12" finished block as shown here created by Patricia Bryant of Australia.

and this digital quilt finishes to 56" x 68"! I had this as a project in the Calendar CD version.

Here is a smaller quilt made by a participating quilt shop several years ago:

And how about a table runner? I made this using only three blocks:

I'll keep you posted on the progress on the new calendar. Maybe rolling out in mid-2025.
I was so sad when they stopped publishing the calendars. Every year my DH would buy me one for Christmas. Hope your deal works out!
ReplyDeleteYes, we'll see. Back and forth emails every day. They approached me, so they're definitely interested!
