Join the World's Greatest BOM Along
For the last few years I've been asked wether I was ever going to run certain BOM programs again - and the answer was always no. This year though the answer is YES! It's THE WORLD'S GREATEST BOM ALONG!*
*disclaimer - may not actually be the worlds greatest. You decide. :)
Essentially, instead of there being a new BOM design next year, every single one of my previous Block of the Month programs is available! That's NINE quilts to choose from! (Never fear, there will be a new design for 2023 - this is just year of Greatest Hits). There's a lot to unpack here, so please make sure to read everything carefully so that you sign up for the right thing.
I have placed FAQs at the bottom of the page to help answer any of your questions. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY.

Please note - because of the complexity of this, if you want do more than one BOM you will need to check out separately for each quilt.
OK - choose from below.
a) If you are doing the quilt for the first time (ie you do not own the book nor joined that same BOM quilt program in the past), then choose for this section:

FAQs
1. When will you receive the BOM pattern and video each month?
When you sign up for a program, you will get access each month to a PDF pattern with full sized printable templates, and full video tutorial for that section of the quilt. The quilt is released monthly on the last day of the month, for 12 months.
The exceptions to that rule are The Grasshopper, A Little Wilderness and Merry and Bright, which are all 6 month programs, but will all begin on January 31, 2022 with the other programs.
2. Where is the chat room being hosted?
This past week we have upgraded our special Block of the Month website. It now features quick links for you to log straight into the program you are looking for without having scroll for it, quick links to purchase templates and notions for your specific quilt, AND for 2022 a special private online chat group that is completely seperate from social media. There will be no Facebook group this year (or any other year if this works well!) so that we are all moving away from a platform that is getting more difficult to use. This group will be for ALL the BOM quilts at once, which means you will be able to see other people's progress on different quilts as we move through the year.
3. What if I already have the book or the have joined the same BOM before and want to do again?
If you have already purchased a previous BOM program, either in book format or in the year that it ran, and you want to participate in the BOM for it this year, thats possible too! There will be a $15 USD fee to join, but that gives you access to the BOM just as everyone else will see it - videos, PDFs and downloadable templates rolled out each month, and the chat room and support as we move through the year. When you sign up we will require your proof of purchase for the book or program. If you purchased through my website then thats easy! If you purchased from a store or an online bookseller and no longer have the receipt, please email bom2017@sarahfielke.com for assistance AFTER you have subscribed using the $15 link.
4. Available quilts and their info -
Happy Days - 2016
Happy Days was my first BOM and still one of my favourites. In this program you will learn basic piecing techniques, as well as foundation paper piecing, EPP, needleturn applique, Hawaiian applique, 60 degree triangles, reverse appliqué.... its a treasure trove of technique, working through from easier blocks to more difficult. There are also three different border layouts available.
Down the Rabbit Hole - 2017
BUNNIES! Working from the centre out, this quilt moves through different borders in a medallion fashion. There are three different border options, for rabbits, cats or a garden, all of which are included in this year's BOM program (and not with the book).
Simple Folk - 2018
A combination of piecing and applique makes this quilt a challenge in every direction. If you are looking for the easiest quilt in the group this is not it! If you like a challenge though, dive in - the water's warm. This quilt was inspired by American Folk Art, Pennsylvania Dutch hex signs and fraktur, hence its name - the Simple Folk.
The Grasshopper - 2018
This quilt is a lesson in hand piecing, hand applique and hand quilting. There is extensive instruction on how to hand piece the blocks and essentially create a quilt entirely by hand. All the templates are suitable for machine work though so if you wanted to zip along faster, you can - but it's the journey, grasshopper.
Coming Home - 2019
Little houses, little trees, little birds... what's to to love. This quilt is worked in a medallion style, and the techniques build on each other as we work outwards each month.
Growing Wild - 2020
In a year where we should have been growing wild outdoors, instead we were all closed up inside - but we all had a wonderful time creating this indoor garden. The striped background of this quilt is pieced, and then everything else is hand appliquéd. if you love hand work or want to really work on your applique technique, this is the project for you!
A Little Wilderness - 2020
In a year where we should have been growing wild outdoors, instead we were all closed up inside - but we all had a wonderful time creating this indoor garden. The striped background of this quilt is pieced, and then everything else is hand appliquéd. This quilt is a little version of Growing Wild. The applique is larger, the quilt is smaller, and it's intended for someone just learning hand applique - or for someone wanting to make a little quilt for a special little someone.
Rainy Days and Sun Rays - 2021
We all needed a ray of sunshine at the beginning of 2021 and this quilt was it! This program is currently still running for 2021 so I am not able to show you the full quilt picture just yet :) I have to say though this has been one of my favourite quilts to make. Not too difficult, not too easy - just right.
Merry and Bright - 2021
Get a jump start on Christmas 2022 and make yourself a Christmas Tree skirt! This is a relatively quick project, the applique worked on one whole piece of fabric, and is large and easy to stitch. I've made two so far and you never know, I could be persuaded to a third if my family bother me enough for another one.
