First up is the new Block of the Month. This is Block 5 - January Block and below are my two versions of it.
Vicki created a fabulous placemat set made with the blocks from the Block of the Month. You'll find the directions for that on the free projects page.
Also, there is a new monthly technique (Technique of the Month) to play with. Look at these great projects that Sue made with painted batting. You'll find those instructions here.
Have fun and enjoy your weekend.
