Welcome to Month 6 of the Bohemian Born Quilt Along! We’re so glad you’re back!
This month is a repeat of Month 2 – a small block row with appliqué and small triangle units.
Month 6 Assignment
Row 6 instructions are found on page 21 of the Bohemian Born pattern.
Here’s what Row 6 entails:
1. Cutting (or gathering if you precut) the rectangles and squares.
2. Cutting the curves.
3. Piecing the Background/Arch units.
4. Piecing and trimming the blocks.
5. Appliqué the Circles.
6. Make the Triangle Units and sew them to the Small Blocks.
7. Assembling the row.
Fabric Cutting
Supplies needed:
Row 6 Fabric
The Junior (Small) Template Set
Applique Supplies
The fabric is first cut into rectangles and squares, then the curves are cut using the Junior (Small) template set when we’re ready to sew.
Gather your precut fabric, or cut it now according to the instructions on pages 8-9.
OR
If you choose your fabric row-by-row, for Row 6, you need:
Fabric 1 – 14″ x wof (width of fabric)
Fabric 2 – 3″ x wof
Fabric 4 – 18″ x wof
Fabric 9 – 8″ x wof
The fabric numbers correspond to the numbers on the diagram on page 9 of your pattern. Cut your rectangles according to the dimensions given in the first column under “Gather the Pre-Cut Fabric” on page 21.
Organization
Label everything carefully by using stickers or pinning a piece of paper on each stack with the information on it.
Making Row 6
Row 6 is made of 12 Small Blocks with Appliqué and 12 Small Triangle Units.
Step-by-step instructions to make the row are on page 21 of the pattern.
Each step takes you through detailed instructions with diagrams to make each section of the blocks. If you need additional help, we have video tutorials for every step. You can access those below and on our YouTube channel. You can subscribe to our channel while you’re there so you don’t miss any of our video tutorials.
