Patch Party is a 16 page 8.5” x 11” full color booklet and can be sold as an individual pattern or run as a 6 or 11-month Block of the Month program. This block of the month program is extremely versatile and has been thoroughly tested and professionally edited. To run it as a 6-month program, simply make two sets of blocks month. The instructions are labeled as Blocks 1-11, so the program can be started at any time during the year and completed at any speed. Most months participants will make two copies of the block, two months they will make four blocks, and one month they will make the jumbo center block.

Patch Party is a beginner friendly quilt. Quilters will learn and use basic skills like making 4-patch units, half-square triangles, quarter-square triangles, flying geese, and square-in-a-square units. It is a great way to expose quilters to basic piecing techniques.

In this quilt, traditional quilt blocks are given a modern update through the use of solids and tone-on-tone prints. The cover quilt is made with Michael Miller Cotton Couture solids and Fairy Frost prints and it is a perfect way to build and use your stock of basics.

But feel free to use your own fabrics. The instructions for each block use the terms ‘solid’ and ‘print’ so you can use any colors or fabric lines.

Also provided is a month-by-month kit cutting guide. Most months, participants will be given one fat quarter of solid fabric and a fat eight of print. In the pattern materials section the fabric names are given, but in the rest of the piecing instructions, the fabrics are referred to as Solids and Prints. This makes it easy for you to substitute fabrics if needed.
