Red Delicious
Skill Level: Suitable for all skill levels
Wall Hanging: 50" x 52"
Schedule: Originally a Mystery BOM, this quilt consists of 12 x blocks making it an ideal 'term' length class. Blocks in the pattern are individually gorgeous and can be adapted into 'mini' projects outright to suit shop themes. The middle cherry basket is particularly popular when adapted into a cushion and the rose block makes a great Valentine for applique meet ups. Then you have the tea pot block and ever popular vase and toadstool block - there's something for everyone here! That's what make this pattern so versatile. And it doesn't stop there, you can also extend your class schedules with the matching apple cushion and the beautiful Cherry Thieves table runner (see below).

The 'baubles' are attached to the finish quilt, making them interchangeable, meaning you can change the theme from '12 days of Christmas' to any fabric style, fussy cutting or broderie perse ideas as suits your quilters.
This is an ideal project for quilters wanting to make 'photo printable' projects. The baubles can easily and effectively incorporate treasured photos printed onto calcio and there's room for plenty of embellishment, charms and buttons too.
