Quilt Block of the Month December 2023
December Block Details
The December block is one of my favorites! I love Ohio stars, and the addition of the contrast center and patchwork corners make it extra interesting.

Sarah McTimmonds says
Sherri, is the purchase option a one time payment for 2024? Or a monthly payment (quarterly?) for the BOM 2024 sent directly to my email?
Thank you, Sally McTimmonds
sherri McConnell says
That is a one-time payment to get the patterns emailed monthly for 2024. Along with three small project bonuses.
Debbie says
I don’t see fabrics requirements for 2024 BOM. It states see below, but nothing is there.
sherri McConnell says
There is a button you can click on the November post. I will also be doing a full post on it next week.

Thank you so much!

I have made all blocks in both 6″ and 12″ and plan to make the finish using all of the blocks but I do not see the star pattern for the posts. I looked on the post for October but don’t see it. Please help!

Yes, the pattern is on the October post. There are two red buttons–one for the block pattern, and the second one for the friendship stars. Make sure you are on the October 2023 page. Thank you!

Hi Sherri!
I did your BOM in 2022 and it was delightful!!
I am considering doing the 2024 BOM and would be interested in the Strawberry Lemonade fabric bundle.
Can you please let me know when that is available?
I would be interested in downloading the patterns each month.
Thank you!
