      <title>UGLY Fabric Block of the Month (Thursday, September 17, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 30px;" color="#0000FF"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Exciting, New Block of the Month (BOM)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 30px;" color="#0000FF"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ugly Fabric BOM&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#0000FF"&gt;WHEN:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; September 2026-September 2027…13 months of blocks. You will receive a block pattern each month.&amp;nbsp; Some months you will make one block some months more than one block of same pattern.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We will be using the book,&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://www.corasquilts.com/books/barn-star" target="_blank"&gt;BARN STAR SAMPLER by Shelley Cavanna&lt;/a&gt;, for the monthly patterns.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#0000FF"&gt;***&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; I encourage you to buy the book but pattern will be available each month.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="https://i.thriftbooks.com/api/imagehandler/m/1DC1F236F3B0B7C599C6DA6AEB9F688C6DB6D9B1.jpeg" alt="Paperback Barn Star Sampler: 20 Starry Blocks and 7 Spectacular Quilts Book"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#0000FF"&gt;WHERE:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; Blocks will be given out at the Guild meeting each month.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#0000FF"&gt;WHO:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; ANYONE and everyone may participate.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#0000FF"&gt;FABRIC NEEDED:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; You will use your own fabric &lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#0000FF"&gt;EXCEPT&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; for ½ yard of “ugly fabric” that you will give to the cause. GREAT STASH BUSTER!!!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#0000FF"&gt;WHAT’S THE CATCH:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Funny you should ask…..lol!&amp;nbsp; Each month along with the pattern, you will be given a piece of someone else’s “ugly fabric” that you must incorporate into that months block.&amp;nbsp; It can be any size of usage but must be able to be seen.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#0000FF"&gt;FINISHED SIZE:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; Book’s finished size is 80 x 100; but we have also sized it down to 76 x 80.&amp;nbsp; So you have a choice.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#0000FF"&gt;FINISHED:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; Finished sewn tops will be shown in January 2028.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#0000FF"&gt;COST:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; $15.00.&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p align="center" style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;span id="docs-internal-guid-248617d7-7fff-0bce-05be-554ac1960338"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Ubuntu, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 21px;"&gt;Ruler Work Quilting&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 21px;"&gt;with Beth Heal&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p style="line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Find out all you need to know to get started with ruler work quilting on your home sewing machine! This class is a basic introduction to using rulers to create precise and intricate quilting designs. &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font color="#222222"&gt;This will be a slow relaxed class to ensure everyone can master the basics.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p style="line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;strong style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Ubuntu;"&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Materials Needed:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;ul style=""&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Westalee Ruler Foot the correct size for your machine.&amp;nbsp; Please let me know if you need help determining the correct size for your machine.&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#FF0000"&gt;*&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Westalee 12” arc ruler, and stable tape.&amp;nbsp; There are many guild members who have this ruler and may be willing to loan it for this class.&amp;nbsp; You may also purchase it through Amazon.&amp;nbsp; (Sew Steady 12” Arc Ruler)&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#FF0000"&gt;*&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;An air or water erasable marker&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Thread, scissors and your favorite sewing tools&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Quilter’s gloves are recommended&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;A table type support that fits around your sewing machine bed that will support your rulers is highly recommended.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;1 yard of muslin or any SOLID color quilting cotton plus quilt batting.&amp;nbsp; We will make multiple quilt sandwiches for practice and a small pillow top&lt;font&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Optional:&lt;/strong&gt; Sew Steady Spacing Gauge optional but very helpful in aligning designs&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Optional:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; A Cross Hair square ruler (12.5”) is highly recommended for setting up designs&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Optional:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; A Supreme Slider or similar item to make your fabric slide easily on the machine bed&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;/ul&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#FF0000"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;*NOTE:&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;The Westalee Design/Sew Steady Ruler Foot Starter Kit contains both items listed above: the ruler foot and the 12” Arc Ruler.&amp;nbsp; Be SURE you order the correct foot for your machine which will be either a high shank or a low shank foot.&amp;nbsp; Again, let me know if you need help determining which one you need.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;

  &lt;p style="line-height: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu"&gt;&lt;strong style=""&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Additional note&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;–&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;There are very cheap ruler foot options on&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Amazon but they are plastic and will break before you even get started.&amp;nbsp; The Westalee ruler foot is steel and will serve you well for ruler quilting as well as free motion quilting.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p style="line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Class participants are expected to have a ruler foot and to have researched whether their machines are high or low shank. Sewing machine dealers should know whether or not your machine is high or low shank, a google search can also help with this.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p style="line-height: 12px;"&gt;&lt;strong style=""&gt;&lt;font color="#222222" face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;If you have any questions, please contact &lt;a href="mailto:%20saltyquilts@gmail.com" target="_blank" style=""&gt;Beth H&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
