Every Friday, during the month of July, a new quilt project and free pattern will be unveiled to celebrate our ninth annual “Christmas in July” celebration at BOMquilts.com.  I started off on July 1st, 2016 by announcing our first quilt along with a set of pattern instructions for “The Marquis Chickadee.”  This is an *adorable* pieced quilt made with Jackie Robinson’s fabrics from Benartex – “My Little Chickadee” & “Chickadees and Berries.”  Inside each of those bird houses is a precious little chickadee, all warm and cozy.
