Due to popular demand for a new pattern, Emily Hunsberger went to her drawing board and came up with a versatile design that is quilted and assembled block by block. Traditional quilts are made by layering a whole quilt top with full-sized batting and backing. With the “quilt-as-you-go” method, small units are individually quilted, then joined together. Once joined, the only remaining step is to attach the binding. It is a very liberating experience. If your space is limited, and you thought that you could never make a quilt, think again! This is an extremely versatile technique with countless applications. Every quilt is guaranteed to be one-of-a-kind!

Pattern price is $12.00, with proceeds going to Mennonite Central Committee.

Quilt patterns are available at:
MCC Ontario office (50 Kent Avenue, Kitchener)

Patterns can also be mailed to buyers for a cost of $14 ($12 for the pattern plus $2 for postage). Contact Emily Hunsberger at ejhunsberger@sympatico.ca for further information.
