A reproduction BOM

Is this quilt not stunning? I love love love it! It's a pattern and BOM called Pies and Tarts from Patchwork with Busy Fingers here in Australia. It is a reproduction of a quilt in the New Jersey quilt documentation book.
I joined up as soon as I saw it. Sue designs patterns and sells products specialising in English paper piecing. Sue also has a blog if you'd like to visit.
Each month for 10 months, there are enough fabrics and papers to do 10 large blocks and 10 of the small ones that go in the intersections. You also receive two acrylic templates to cut out the fabric pieces in month one.
I've made a good start and have all the large ones done, just the smaller ones to do before the next lot arrive.
I've had a great productive week attending to a few projects, I'm hoping this will continue into the weekend. I hope you are all getting in some quality stitching time as well.

I'm making this quilt too!!! I'm almost done with my "pie's" and then it's on to the tarts. I've had a picture of this quilt on my wall for over a year and when Sue offered it as a bom I jumped at it.

Love it!!
