WHAT YOU NEED:

The Mixed Lollies Quilt Pattern.
Available as a PDF or Printed Pattern through my Online Store.

This quilt has 3 different finished sizes, Small Throw, Large Throw and King Size.

The requirements have options for Jelly Rolls, Layer Cakes (Fat 16ths / 10") and Fat 1/8ths, however Charm Squares (5") or scraps are great too.

I am currently working on a 1930's reproduction version with a red and white background. 
How different does it look with a stronger background........ now I'm thinking of another quilt with a dark grey background and pretty Liberty prints for the Nine Patch Blocks.
This quilt definitely has lots of opportunities to play with both fabric and colour and I'm excited!

A newsletter will be sent out to all subscribers 2 weeks before the Sew Along starts with some fabric mock-ups and maybe even another quilt top by me.
Let me know if there are any fabric ranges you would like to see!

So hands up, who is going to join the sew along?
I am itching to get started and I hope you are too.
