FAQ

  • What skill level is required for this pattern?

    This pattern uses approachable, beginner friendly techniques with small, detailed piecing. This BOM is designed to be a skill builder to help you perfect your seam allowance and small piecing skills! This BOM would be suitable for an advanced beginner who is looking to expand their piecing techniques and accuracy. As each featured block has a FPP option, this is also a good opportunity to practice your FPP skills if desired!

  • What if the BOM has already started? Can I still sign up?

    You can sign up any time during (or after) the BOM and still receive all of the blocks!

  • Can I buy a block separately?

    When the BOM has concluded, some of the featured blocks will likely be added to my shop. However, they will be priced accordingly due to their complexity, so if you want more than one of the blocks the most cost-effective approach is to sign up for the BOM.

  • What size is offered?

    This BOM makes a throw sized quilt; however, if you're feeling adventurous you can make more or fewer blocks to customize your size (instructions are not given for alternate sizes).

  • What is included in this BOM?

    Each month from June - December you will receive a pattern with templates and any additional required instructions. The first month there will be a simple video FPP tutorial to start! This BOM does not include fabric, though kits may be available from shops. More information about kits will be shared closer to the BOM start date.

  • Where can I find fabric requirements?

    Fabric requirements will be posted here when registration opens.

  • How will I get the blocks?

    The blocks will be available for download on your dashboard at alderwoodstudio.thinkific.com each month. An email reminder will be sent when the blocks are available for download!

  • Is this BOM a one-time payment?

    Yes, you sign up with a one-time payment for the whole BOM. The BOM fee is $48 ($4/month).
