Block Party 2025

Come join us for our new Block Party, a quilter‘s challenge using a fabric of your choice to create 12 mystery blocks, all wrapped up for your surprise gift. 
How it works:

*   Each Block Party group has 12 members.
*   Participants will purchase 1-1/2 yds of focus fabric of your choosing. Please choose 100% cotton woven fabric.  (..receive a 20% discount on this purchase.)
*   We will cut your fabric choice into fat 1/8’s (9“ by 22“).
*   Members of the block party group will receive a fat 1/8 from every other member of your group.  (packet pick–up in store, or a shipping cost of $5.00 will added.)
*   You will create a 12-1/2” unfinished block for each different fabric sample you receive from your group, incorporating that fabric into the design. (You will have 12 finished blocks, each using only one of the fabrics you received from your group.)
*   You may choose any block pattern/design, and use any coordinating fabrics you wish for each square. A combination of piecework, appliqué, or other specialty stitches/techniques may be included. Please use 100% cotton woven fabric.
*   Finished squares need to be 12-1/2“. Please carefully watch your 1/4“ seam allowances and measure/size your squares when you are finished. Squares needing adjustment will be returned to maker.
*   Once your 12 squares are completed, drop or mail them back to the Fabric Patch (100 W. McLeod Ave, Ironwood, MI 49938) . Return deadline is October 31st, 2025.
*   The 12 squares using your fabric choice (yes, the one you made for yourself also!) will be gift wrapped and opened as your surprise package at our year-end Block Party. Participants unable to attend our celebration, or from out of town, will have their Block Party squares shipped.
*   Watch for our Block Party announcement in late November.
