I'm so excited to give you the preliminary information about my next Pocket Patchwork Sew-Along! The quilt project is named Nabby's Dowry and it features all of the fabrics from my new fabric line, Pin Money, as well as most of the Prairie Wovens, Dobbies, and Chambray line, too! You may know that Pin Money was named for First Lady, Abigail Adams, and her daughter's name was Abigail as well, but the entire family called her Nabby. Perhaps Abigail pieced a scrappy quilt for her daughter? I liked the thought and that's how I came up with the name. I know...weird how my mind works!
This will be the largest quilt we've made in my sew~alongs thus far, measuring approximately 36 inches square. The block size is 6 inches finished, and is very, very scrappy! There are lots and lots of Half Square Triangles!
I will post the sew~along instructions every Friday for 12 weeks, making it the longest sew-along as well. But, don't worry...it will be easy, breezy and lots of fun, suitable for all skill levels. You can certainly use your scraps and choose your own fabrics, but just in case.....
There is a kit available for Nabby's Dowry!
What a great way to collect fabrics from both of these collections!

Click on the link above to see all of the fabrics in the kit for the quilt top and binding. The kit price is $45.25. Postage within the U.S. is included as well. International customers are welcome to participate. Please read instructions with order information on my website.
PLEASE NOTE: I am taking pre-orders at this time to best accommodate everyone who desires a kit. Kits will be shipped in early June, and you will have them before the sew~along begins!
