Inquiring Minds Want to Know..

When can I start? Well... we have a number of beautiful Block-of-the-Month programs scheduled to start in the next few months!  
 
In some cases, these are brand new BOM projects, and in other cases, these are second or third or fourth rounds of popular programs.

How We Do Things at Fabric Essentials... 

We schedule our programs, receive our fabric, and start cutting kits. We cut the ENTIRE set of BOM kits at one time. WHY do we do this? We feel it is vitally important that WE know and YOU know that everything is in the kit before you start the project. We don't want any surprises down the road with fabric not being available.

So...once the kits are cut, you can start at any time! You aren't held to any rigid program where you can only have one kit per month - you can have as many as you want! We don't know how fast you sew, or what your budget allows, so YOU SET THE PACE! And because everything is cut in advance, you can change it down the road. 
 
What happens if we run out of kits?

We cut more! We keep track of how fast our sign-ups are coming in and have orders going in until the manufacturer tells us they aren't printing any more fabric. In some cases, we are only able to get enough fabric for X kits now, and we already have orders in place for delivery down the road.

This one word sums up our Block-of-the Month programs and it's why we use the slinky image to represent this key concept!

  
Amish With A Twist III - Marshmallow 

Starts in July (or anytime after that!)

Here's Amish With A Twist III with a Marshmallow background. This quilt can be made with either a pieced center or an applique center. In addition, there are pre-cut, laser cut appliques available. This program includes the binding, backing and a Boo-Boo Bundle of extra fabric!

Oh...I almost forgot...we offer an EXCLUSIVE King size version of each of these quilts!

Amish With A Twist III - Grey

Starts in July (or anytime after that!)

Here's a Three-Grey version of the same quilt. Take a close look at how Nancy Rink uses the lightest grey in the center and then a medium grey, and finally a darker grey on the outer borders. We think the result is stunning!

Amish With A Twist III - Blue

We shouldn't leave the original Blue Coal version out of this! We still offer this program and you can start anytime! I should mention that all of our Amish With A Twist III BOM programs include the Fabric Essentials EXCLUSIVE cutting diagrams, so you can visually see how to cut the fabrics!

What Else? 

Customers Say
"We're so thrilled that you offer this BOM option. It's nice to be able to work at our own pace and not have to stop and wait until the next month before receiving the supplies. We look forward to seeing what else you have in store for us in the coming years!! :-)" Laura M
 
"I like the flexibility of the Fabric Essentials BOM programs...I can work ahead at my own pace & don't have to wait 30 days to get another block." Katherine W
 
"I got your package yesterday, and I was simply floored!  Wow! I showed my husband the two complete BOM's I had received from you and the other quilt shop. His reply was "no comparison"! I love the backing fabric. And the finishing kit was also a surprise for me. It was like Christmas! Thank you again for the thoughtful way your run your program. I brag to my friends what a great deal your BOM program is. I'm going to share this with my guild tomorrow and show them how generous your program is." A forever customer, Carolyn P.

"I love this BOM - and I LOVE this store. Best Place to get a BOM." Cynthia S


"I thank you again for your service and, as I stated before, the best instructions I have ever used. It was so easy to follow and very detailed. The pictures and diagrams helped immensely! I hope the rest of the industry picks up on your lead. I know the time involved with designing and completing the instructions is very consuming. The attention to the details was impeccable. All of your work has paid off when a quilter can do it as easily as I did! I am attaching pictures of my finished quilt!" Thank you again, Denise S
