Carousel designer, Jessica Plunkett (@maeberrysquare), is making TWO new versions of this wonderful quilt with Carousel BOM participants. We love to see it grow over the months in color and in black & white.

Carousel Medallion BOM
The Carousel BOM program will run from April through November 2023. April is for gathering supplies and joining the (optional) AG Stitch Club online community. Cutting and sewing start in early May. We will have participation patches and finisher pins as well as all of the other typical AG goodness to make this a great first BOM!
The goal of this BOM (besides ending up with a gorgeous new quilt) is to make a fun, beginner-friendly project, with an emphasis on slowing down and enjoying the process. This is a low key, slower paced program with an emphasis on skill building. You will learn and practice a number of foundational quilting skills including half square triangles, flying geese, and sewing curves. A medallion style quilt builds on itself layer by layer and it will come together more easily and efficiently when unrushed care is put toward construction. The Carousel Medallion quilt finishes at 76” x 76”.
Signing Up:
- Signing Up Includes the Pattern!
The pattern will be delivered via PDF in a typical BOM structure, month by month. In month 1 (May) we will cut and organize fabric for the quilt top and sew the small center section. From there, months 2 - 6 will focus purely on sewing! We are excited for this format - giving the opportunity to focus on sewing skills and precision with a small time commitment per month.
