THE 2016-2017 BLOCK OF THE MONTH

PROGRAM might be the most FUN AND

EDUCATIONAL yet! Called “MY

COUNTRY HOME” this sewing Block of

the Month project is designed by our own

SUE COPPIN and is based on the book

“Quick & Easy Block Tool” by C & T Pub-

lishing. The possibilities for blocks are

truly endless! Your Quick and easy Block Tool book will be available at a 20% discount once your BOM fees are paid.

The “rules” for 2016-2017 BOM are straightforward. BOMers pay a one time $10 fee

for the entire program No-vember 20156

through May, 2017). Partici-pants must at-

tend one BOM class each month (either

the first Satur-day at 9:00 a.m., or the first Tues-

day evening at 5:30 p.m.). If you miss a month, you may re-join by paying an additional $10.

Each month BOMers will receive a coupon for 20% off the purchase of any one item. The BOM coupons are good for the en-

tire month, but cannot be combined or accu-mulated. Excluded items are those on sale, consignment, gift certificates, class fees, or

special orders. Check out the awesome quilt that Sue has made using the Quick & Easy Block Tool The possibilities are endless!
