FIRST......
Have you been wanting to fill in the skill gaps? Do you have a friend that wants to learn to quilt? Or maybe you would love to pick up a few tips from a group of us during the Ultimate Beginner Quilt Along! There will be videos and tips. A kit will be ready Friday and I'll show you the quilt done in my Bonnie Lane too!
Now... let's proceed to Main Street. Cha-Ching! Where do you put your money honey?

Block #7 is The Bank. Big Banks, Small Banks. We even have a bank in our grocery store! I tell you about my 'special' banker moments and people in the pattern. Are you a banker? Know one?
Do you even go to the bank anymore or do it all by direct deposit and the money machine? Banking sure has changed
THE DOWNLOAD is at the end of my article HIGHLIGHTED IN PINK, so keep reading

I'm having such fun with the General Store fabric. I have to sew this one up, maybe tonight
For my Cheeky block for this week I went with a different intensity of colors by using very light blue so that the yellow pops. This makes the block look much different than it does in the country store fabric. It's fun to make the blocks up in different intensity of fabric choices, to highlight different parts of the block. Someday it would be interesting to do a the same block in repeat and change where the colors go. You learn a lot this way about how to use your fabric.

Cheeky Fabrics version:
- Cheeky Fat Quarter Bundle - 28 FQs in this bundle
- 1.5 yds of white with little red dots
- 1 yd red dots that is in the FQ bundle is now sold out. So if you want to do similar to me select another red print or just wait until you make a few blocks and decide.
- 2 yds Roses & dots to use as a full border. The quilt layout will not have a solid border but I will put a solid border on this one as I love this dot and rose print! - pick the shade you love. OR wait and see the border option. This fabric will go quickly

General Store Fabrics version:
