2020 Quiltalongs - Anna Maria Horner, Wheelhouse Medallion Club

The first of our three 2002 Quiltalongs is from the wonderful Anna Maria Horner...

Anna Maria Horner is celebrating 15 years in fabric design with Hindsight, a collection of her favourite designs that have been re-coloured and revised for 2020. The new designs are shown below including the fabulous Echinacea print in no less than four colours!

The fabric aren’t available until May, but the reason for showing them now is that they are the focus of a new, 5 month club called the Wheelhouse Medallion Club. Membership of the Club will enable you to create this amazing and vibrant 80" square Wheelhouse Medallion Quilt shown below.

What do you get?

A lot of fabric! Fussy cutting and applique are key elements in this quilt and over 21m of fabric is provided to enable you to do this. Starting fabrics and the pattern will be shipped in June 2020 and then additional fabrics in August and September. Club benefits also include membership of the Wheelhouse Medallion Club Facebook group, exclusive club projects (for all that extra fabric!) and live video tutorials. There is a registration fee of £14.95, payable when you join. The club is charged in three instalments of £94.95 in June, August and September when the fabric is shipped.

An optional Swag Bag is also available. This includes Anna Maria’s embellishment guide, 6 heat-resistant templates (to use instead of the paper templates in the pattern), Anna Maria’s exclusive quilt label and a reusable Free Spirit shopping bag. The Swag Bag is priced £19.95, but if you register for the Club before 7th January 2020 this is provided at no additional charge. Click here to find out more and sign up to the Wheelhouse Medallion Club.

If you would like to back your quilt in a design by Anna Maria we have two options that are available to pre-order. Pre-ordered backing fabrics receive a 10% discount off the regular price and will only be charged and dispatched with the final fabric instalment in September.
Option 1: 4.5m of Piecework in Rose (8304-24, above left)
Option 2: 2.25m of Honorable Mention in Turquoise (7884-4, above right)

Also launching next Spring is this fabulous boxed set of Aurifil threads, especially selected by Anna Maria to complement her fabrics. The threads are presented in a sturdy tin with her “Honorable Mention” design on the lid. The tin contains 5 small 80wt spools, 5 small and 3 large 50wt spools and 6 large 12wt spools. Priced £134.95 we are offering the set to customers who sign up for the Wheelhouse Medallion Club for £124.95.  You can pre-order this on the Wheelhouse registration page. The boxed set will be charged and dispatched with your first fabric pack in June. Or if you just love this set you can pre-order it now on it's own.

Happy Creating!
