YESSSS you guys! Today is the day! Ridgeline Star – Block #1 of The Perfect HST Block-of-the-Month – drops into your inboxes this morning! I’m so excited to get the BOM off and running, and I hope you’ll enjoy this first installment!
We’ll be making this quilt during 2019 with the Perfect HST BOM. It’s a beginner-friendly block-of-the-month program that uses my best-selling Perfect HST templates, so that you won’t have to trim or square up a single half-square triangle! And if you haven’t joined in yet, I’m extending pre-sale discount pricing for 2 more days!! Tuesday is the LAST DAY to get this BOM at its lowest possible price—a one-time payment of $19.99.

The blocks in this year’s BOM are named after streets or other places that are special to me. So of course Block 1 is named for my current home sweet home in suburban Milwaukee, Wisconsin. 2019 marks 15 years that I’ve called Ridgeline Ct. home—it’s where I have raised my daughters, run my business, and so much more.
We’ll be sewing these BOM blocks more or less in order of difficulty, starting with the easiest. So Ridgeline Star is super quick, easy, and fun to make, especially since we’re using my Perfect HST Templates. (The Perfect HST Templates are sold separately from the BOM subscription.)
The Perfect HST BOM includes:
• A new block pattern delivered to your email on the first Monday of each month, beginning Jan. 7, 2019—12 block patterns total
• Complete finishing instructions to make a 52″ x 62″ quilt
• Three free bonus patterns for extra HSTs
• Complete fabric requirements, including suggested Kona Solids colors (a limited number of fabric kits will be available at www.sewtopia.com)
• A BOM Program Guide, which includes the block release schedule, ways to prepare/get organized for the quilt-along, practice lessons in using the Perfect HST templates and accurately piecing completed HST units so you can get the hang of it before the BOM begins, tips for beginner success, and more
• Access to a closed Facebook group where you can ask questions, get advice, and connect with other quilters
• A monthly subscriber-only newsletter with tips and tricks, examples of completed blocks, etc.
(Please note that the Perfect HST Templates are NOT included with the BOM subscription. If you don’t already have the Perfect HST templates, you need to purchase them in order to make this quilt.
