Mystery Quilt Block

Next week, we'll discuss The Persian Pickle Club.  I'll post questions and invite all members to write their thoughts in the comments section of each post.  And be thinking about the block you'd like to make to go with the book.  I've given you many choices.  It's totally up to you how many blocks you'd like to make to go with each book - anywhere from zero to an entire sampler quilt!    

And to help you plan for our future book discussions, we'll be reading in:
March:  A Single Thread by Marie Bostwick (first of her Cobbled Court Series)
April:  The Quilter's Apprentice by Jennifer Chiaverini (first of her Elm Creek Series)
