It's Coming!

Hold on...I am working out the details...
soon I will have a schedule together and we can get started...
In the meantime...I have formed a Molly Flanders Makerie :: Flowering Snowball-along Flickr page here


 

I will also have a Linky party or two, so if you want to sew along, but don't want to commit to a Flickr group...you can join in that way as well...


Finally, I have had a few people ask me about templates. The block in my quilt is a finished 12". I will post the templates on the blog for you to print out and we will discuss different options for making templates. 

But there are a couple of sites selling Flowering Snowball acrylic templates.  I do not have acrylic templates, but I did place an order today for a set. Of course, it is much more economical to use the templates I post on the blog and make your own.  
  
If you would like to look at the templates for purchase you can find them at:
www.quilttemplates.com - they have several sizes available
and an etsy shop called ModernQuilter - they have only a 9" block size available...

Okay...I think that is it for now.  I will be back in the next few days with a schedule and fabric requirements!

    Yea! I'm looking forward to it. Love your version using white and retro ditties. I'm tempted to go that direction myself.

    I'm going to be a bystander on this one. Excited to see how to do it, though!

    looks a bit tricky, but will try if I can get template printed off but computer will not recognise my printer at the moment.

    Just checking, are the blocks hand sewn or machine pieced?

    I ordered my acrylic templates from here

    She also has a smaller, cheaper set here

    In the large set you get three different sizes (6", 9", 12") as well as some other curved templates and the price is the best I've seen, especially for shipping outside the US. I am in the midst of a Flowering Snowball mini with 6" finished blocks and these templates have worked incredibly well. They are by @jennaappleton on Instagram.
