Conversation Row of the Month Club is a quilt that turns the ever popular candy heart into a delightful sampler. Enjoy piecing this quilt in rows. We start at the bottom of the heart at the point and work our way up to put together a colorful and playful advanced beginner quilt.

THE CONVERSATION BLOCKS: The blocks selected for this Row of the Month are intended to be basic since there are several blocks to assemble each month. Participants will make anywhere from 4 - 12 blocks per month, working in rows. The ROM uses traditional piecing techniques, with one appliqué row (orange peels).

Finished Block Size: 6” x 6” | Finished Quilt Size: 76” x 76”

THE CONVERSATION ROM will contain:

* 12 ROW Patterns. Most rows contain a “Square” block pattern and a “Half” block pattern

* 8 Patterns for “Half” Blocks (used to make diagonal shape of heart)

* 12 Patterns for each Row’s “Square” Blocks (used centrally inside the heart shape)

* Instructions for Assembling the Quilt Top

WHAT SKILL LEVEL IS CONVERSATION? Conversation ROM is an advanced beginner pattern as far as piecing skills, but does require making several blocks each month.

We build these skills: mastering block basics like half-square triangles, stitch-n-flip corners, diamond-in-the-square, raw-edge applique, flying geese, and quarter-square triangle/hourglass blocks. NO paper piecing, curves or y-seams.
