We've heard your requests of a Block of the Month, so our own Marti Sofie will be teaching this stunning quilt from Twister Sisters. This will be a 7 month program starting in April. This beautiful quilt uses pinwheel units using the Mini Twister tool to frame traditionally pieced blocks creating the illusion of circles surrounding beautiful color shaded blocks. The quilt finishes at 81" x 81", you can make it as small as 74" x 74" or enlarge to your desired size with additional borders. The kit includes all 16 shades of batiks required for the block piecing and a full page color pattern. You get to choose your background fabric from choices available at the shop. As a bonus, Beginnings will offer a 15% discount on your background fabric purchase. The monthly BOM class sessions for creating the quilt are free if you purchase all supplies from the shop. The first session is a full day, then afternoons for six weeks.

We love this print for a spring outfit of Scout Tee and Gored Skirt.
Gored Skirt Pattern by Mary Ann Donze
This is a great beginner skirt with big payoff. You can alternate fabric in the gores of the skirt or make it in one color. And the elastic waist makes it a fast sew as well as an easy, comfy finish. Skirt comes in three lengths: above knee, mid-knee and midi-length, and it can be any size, based on the number of gores you include in the skirt. - 16.00
Scout Tee by Grainline Studio
The Scout is designed for woven fabrics with cap sleeves and scoop neck. It's fitted at the shoulders and falls into a more relaxed shape below the bust. Perfect on its own for spring and summer and a great layering piece under blazers and cardigans the rest of the year. Beginner techniques include straight seams, applying bias binding, setting sleeves and basic hemming. Pattern is nested to facilitate grading between sizes if needed. - 16.00
