Here's the deal. . .
There are actually two patterns available. The Cheerful Chimp applique pattern is for one applique block. (The pattern is for a 16 inch square block, but you can size that up or down if you like.)
What can you do with one block? Well. You can make a wall hanging or a pillow cover. You can applique the image on a T-shirt or a tote bag. You can use paper instead of fabric and make a greeting card. You can even turn it into an embroidery pattern - it's all outlines, after all.
Maybe you want to make more than one block. Make a row of three in different colors and you have an Andy Warhol-ish triptych. :-) Make 20 and you can make a twin-sized quilt like the Peekaboo Bear quilt. By the way - if you want to make that Peekaboo Bear quilt, registration is still open and you still have plenty of time. :-)
Or maybe. . . maybe. . . you want to make a quilt with a lot of different blocks. A Safari Quilt, with a chimp, a lion, a zebra, an elephant and lots of other African animals. Well then, what you want is the Safari Quilt Block of the Month Club.
This chimp is just the first of 12 blocks - plus a final lesson on assembling them all into a twin-sized quilt. You'll get a new applique pattern every month, with new skills added as you go along. The chimp is the easiest - all big pieces, straight lines, and convex curves. In later months we'll add concave curves, points, smaller pieces and more. My the end of the year you will be the queen of applique - ready to tackle just about any pattern out there.
Click through the links for more details (and to purchase) either pattern. Dip your toes into the world of easy machine applique with just The Cheerful Chimp. Or make him the start of something bigger. Something grand. Something FUN with the Safari Quilt Block of the Month Club.
Let me know if you have any questions, ok?
Have a great weekend everyone!
Best,
