Countdown to Christmas 12/3/2022: A Simple Sawtooth Star Quilt Pattern
The Quilt Guild of Metro Detroit Sewed my “Happiness is Quilting” BOM Quilt Together!
“Happiness is Quilting” 2017 Block of the Month Quilt. An original quilt designed by TK Harrison from BOMquilts.com!
The Quilt Guild of Metro Detroit is a traditional quilt guild but have a wide variety of talent amongst us. Normally we meet at a church in Harper woods, Michigan, but yet again due to Covid we are meeting exclusively digital.
Each month we usually feature speakers from all over, and we hold a retreat once a year, and a quilt show every other year. This year, as all of the above have been canceled – we are trying to get more hands-on. So we are going to be doing your BOM, as well as offering a mystery quilt and a few member-led workshops.

Here’s a look at the “Happiness is Quilting” Quilts that the Quilt Guild of Metro Detroit Made:
Such talent amongst the various members of the Quilt Guild of Metro Detroit! Thanks for sharing these wonderful, gifted & colorful creations with us!
It’s “Talking Turkey” Time at Quilt Dash this Month!
Thanksgiving is upon us again this year! So let’s talk about Turkey, Flying Geese & Wild Geese!
“Talking Turkey”
Designed by TK Harrison (that’s me 🙂 )
This pieced quilt measures 68” x 78” when finished.
The quilt blocks are 12” finished & 12 1/2” unfinished.
Whatever you do on Thanksgiving be sure that you take time to “Fly Away” with your sewing machine!
There are two main quilt blocks that are in this quilt:
-
- Turkey in the Straw Quilt Block
-
- Wild Geese Quilt Block
This is a Horizontal Strip quilt. It should be a little bit easier to sew together than a traditional quilt!
