BLOCK OF THE MONTH - BOM
BOM 2012 - Sedona Star
Auditioning Colors and Fabrics for Sedona Star 2012
Join us on a new 12-month quilting journey as we bring you a fabulous quilt designed especially for TQS by Sarah Vedeler. Sedona Star is a spectacular medallion quilt that features a beautiful center star surrounded by a charming array of appliqué elements.

Each month we will provide a photo and detailed directions for a portion of the quilt, as well as full-size patterns. Sedona Star finishes at approximately 88” x 88” inches. One version features a total of sixteen different print fabrics, including colorful shades of blue, pink, purple, yellow, red and gold; however, Sarah is providing another alternative color option and instructions for each month as well. Fabric kits for both colorways area available in limited quantities through the TQS Shoppe.

Wow Carol! This is going to be absolutely georeous! I have never worked with silk, for fear it would be a "slippery" project. But then you are an excellent award winning quilter, so you probably have all of the pitfalls already solved. I will be looking forward to your updates in the BOM Show and Tell!

A while ago I decided I wanted to do my Sedona Star in Dupioni Silk. I finally got the last of the yardage on Thursday. I wanted to share the color palette with you. I created a PDF document that has the fabric swatches which correspond to the FIZZ fabrics. I am going to start on Month 1 today. I can't wait!!!! I just printed out my templates and am ready to start. I will post my center as soon as I get it done.
Here are the first 3 dupioni colors.

So excited! My fabric arrived today and it is beautiful! Just waiting on Ricky's Stable stuff - oh, and my machine to get out of the shop. Have a new 830, it and I do not seem compatible. In the last 3 months it has spent more time in the shop than in my sewing room! The shop is sending it back to Bernina (luckily I only live about an hour from the main office in IL) but the wait is still about 2 weeks! Excited to get started!

Thanks for the advice, Sarah! I am also hopeful that with this BOM project, I can learn to use my 730 for applique embroidery too. I am soooooooo excited about this BOM (even though I already had my list of 2012 quilt projects figured out). This is going to be fun!!! :D

Me too! I just have to figure out whether I'm going to use my own colorway or one of the two provided. BTW, I really like the upgrade, but I skipped the last one, so there may be more differences in that case.

Thanks, Ladies! Maybe it's time to take the v6 upgrade plunge...

Sherry is correct - Bernina didn't add CorelDraw until Version 6.

Sarah :-)
