Anteli Block of the Month

Announcing the Exciting New 12-Month Virtual Block-of-the-Month (BOM) Quilt Class!

Join us this October 2023 for an incredible quilting journey as our talented instructor, Kelley Richardson, hosts this BOM program with a private Facebook group and helpful how-to videos. Get ready to embark on the Anteli Quilt, a magnificent 90" x 90" queen-sized quilt, taught over 12 months.

The Anteli Quilt kit features a stunning teal, green, and off-white batik selection from the basic collection by Island Batik.  Each block showcases a beautiful combination of lights, mediums, and darks, promising a unique and captivating color palette that will enhance the beauty of your home. This exceptional design comes from Quilters Treasure Chest, owned and operated by Raija, who hails from the Nordic country of Finland, renowned for its breathtaking landscapes and textile artistry. "Anteli" in Finnish means 'generous', perfectly reflecting the quilt's essence.  The quilt boasts a crystalline-looking border, adding a touch of sparkle to its already mesmerizing appearance.

Anteli Details:

• The Anteli Quilt kit includes the top, binding fabrics and pattern.  It will be shipped (or picked up) at the beginning of the class.  Cost is $480.00 Cdn. To make it accessible for everyone, the class costs will be divided into 12 monthly payments of $30 each.  When you order your kit the payment will include the $30 charge for your first class.
