Cozy's Building Blocks is underway! We are so excited to be (re)introducing this fun Block of the Month program! Join in and get a FREE block pattern each month for six months. We'll share the download link with you on our Facebook broadcast, and that pattern will be FREE to download for one week.
Cozy is releasing a new block pattern on the first Monday Night Live broadcast of each month May through October. You can catch it on our Facebook video page. We go live at 4pm (Pacific), and the schedule of shows is below.
During that show, we will give you a link so you can download that pattern. But it will only be available for FREE for one week.
The blocks are designed by the beloved Sharyn Craig. They will finish 9", and you'll make two blocks per month for a total of 12 blocks at the end of the program. It's perfect for fat quarters, or you can play along with our colorways.
During the broadcast, we will also show you different blocks and different colorways to keep your inspiration flowing.
In the last month, we will begin to talk about setting options. That's right, options. We will not tell you how to set your blocks, but we will inspire you with ideas and suggestions.
Because your quilt will be uniquely yours, I can't tell you how big it will be. This is the fun of Building Blocks.
But if you are a planner, may I suggest browsing Sharyn's collection of patterns designed to provide setting solutions for blocks of the month like this. The patterns are called Joy of Sets, and you can see them on our website. For those quilts that have large
Here's how to get the blocks.
Best of all, Sharyn Craig herself helped us launch this on a MNL that was full of amazing information including pointers on choosing fabrics, cutting your pieces, and so much more. (Insider tip: You can still watch the video and shop along!)

To make the twelve blocks, we recommend 18 print fat quarters. That will give you plenty of fabric to make decisions and have variety. We also recommend a minimum of 1 yard of background fabric. To play it safe, you can go to 2 yards. If you think you want to use that background fabric in the setting, go up to 3 or 4 yards.
Here are some of the fat quarter bundles we are featuring. To see the blocks, visit our Facebook page. And while it is not mandatory, Sharyn loves using the template set here.
