It's time to join me in making your very own Giant Granny Panties {quilt}!
Over the next six weeks we will be quilting along together to make a quilt that measures approximately 65" x 65":
Week 1: Choosing your fabric and notions
Week 2: Cutting your fabric
Week 3: Piecing and assembling your quilt top.
Week 4: Backing, basting & getting ready to quilt
Week 5: Quilting
Week 6: Binding
I will be posting each week's instructions on Fridays and will give everyone the opportunity to link up and show off their progress each Monday.
Anyone is welcome! If you are a new quilter, you will be a more confident quilter by the end of the quilt along. If you have made a few quilts, you will hopefully pick up some new tips and tricks. And if you are a seasoned quilter, well you can make another awesome quilt!
We will use the That Girl Flickr Group for posting progress pictures, detailed discussions, and help.
I am super excited to be partnering with Sew Lux Fabric to offer kits in four different colorways! Beginning today {8/13/12} thru Saturday {8/18/12} kits for this quilt along will be $42.00 + shipping. So that works out to $7.15 per yard which is an amazing deal!
We will be using six color prints and one neutral solid {fewer fabrics than the quilt along button because I figured that not many would want to make a 90" x 90" quilt}.
The solid will form the outermost "round" of the granny square and the border. The yardage increments decrease with each round until you reach the center square. If you decide to use alternate fabrics from your stash, you can still find the yardage requirements listed in any one of the kits by Sew Lux.
Each kit contains everything you need for the quilt top. Binding and backing fabric will be up to you and are a great way to personalize your Giant Granny Panties {quilt}.
After Saturday, the regular price will be $47.00.

You can find a blog button up on the right hand side of my blog. And really, who doesn't love a good pair of granny panties? So spread the word!
I'll also be adding a blog roll on the other sidebar of my blog for all my friends and their Giant Granny Panties so comment and let me know that you are in and I'll add you to the list.
We will begin Week 1 on Friday {8/24} so that everyone has plenty of time to get their fabric... Until then, if you have any questions please let me know.
