Drum roll, please... It's the block-of-the-month you've all been waiting for... made of wondrous wool applique... designed by Primitive Gatherings... A Thankful Life is coming to Corn Wagon Quilt Co. as an exciting, new, 14-month program!
Join our newest wool block-of-the-month to make this magnificent, autumn-inspired quilt designed by Lisa Bongean. The wool applique quilt finishes at 70" x 84" creating an impressive wall quilt you'll look forward to displaying seasonally. Live a Thankful Life features ten scenes depicting fall in the country, surrounded by a beautiful, autumn vine border. This quilt has wonderful hand-dyed wool appliqued on black homespun backgrounds.
Registration is now open (click here) and we anticipate this one to fill quickly. The program will begin May 1, 2024. Kits include cotton homespun background fabrics and felted wools to complete each block. The pattern will be included in your first kit, and the binding fabric will be included in the final kit. Threads are not included, but a starter kit of applique and embellishment threads will be available to purchase at the shop.
The sign-up fee is $125 and includes the pattern. Each month, beginning in May, your credit card will be charged automatically via our secure subscription system. The monthly fee is $44.99 per month for 14 months. You can pick up the block at your convenience after the first day of the month or we offer shipping for an additional $7.99 per month.
