Hi Fiona, There are a few of us LA quilters that are also bloggers on the site that would be more than happy to answer any questions you have regarding FMQ. I like many started quilting on my domestic machine. If you would like to see a blog om FMQ please feel free to ask.

I love to start by choosing the central fabric which can showcase nice large patterned design as you will need 10″ square of it. You can then use the same fabric…

Hello
I’ve just finished a project I’ve been busy on and I am very interested in your lovely bom, do you have a fabrics requirements list if I want to use my own fabrics?-
Hi Sarah, yes, there’s a requirements list for the Mystery BOM. 12 different fabrics, with a guideline to colouring that cross to the colours I’ve used, but obviously you can do a completely different mix.
Each monthly pattern has a ‘Key’ to indcate which of your fabrics to use where instead of my choice.
You can purchase the block patterns at your own pace via my UKQU shop. I still have a couple of kits available for each month if you wanted to use the Mackower fabrics as I have.
Many thanks! Ab x
