Book Club: Hand Pieced QAL 2020
The Pattern
The pattern for the QAL is called Harmony because don’t we all need a little more Harmony in our lives after 2020? It’s perfect for both yardage and is fat quarter friendly.
The Harmony pattern is $10. It is a digital (PDF) pattern that includes:
- All the instructions for each unit, block construction, and final quilt top settings for wall hanging and throw quilt
- Templates for all quilt blocks (and rotary cutting instructions where possible)
- Coloring page
The Schedule
The pattern is available now and the QAL kicks off two weeks later on February 22, and it will run through June.
