Pat Sloan on The 2017 Mystery

I was a bit of a book nerd as a kid, I loved to read and spent a lot of time at the library. My mom saved a few of my books from when I was very little, those I share over on my website, with a peek inside at my early drawings, which was so fun to find!


Fabric Inspiration

For each block I’ll be using the four colors in the image above. Watch for some bonus ways to use the block each month! I think it will be fun to grab another stack of scraps and use them up each month for a separate project with just that block. I plan to bust a LOT of fabric in 2017!

Next - Share What You Love

I want to know YOUR most loved Children’s book. Was it yours, or one you read to your children? Maybe it’s one you love now for your grandkids, nieces, or nephews.

Leave me a comment telling me what your favorite Children’s book is!


Participating Shops

We are currently building a list of participating shops where you will be able to get help with your fabric, purchase fabrics and maybe even have a gathering each month for the BOM. This list will be growing quickly, so please check back if you don't see a shop in your area! A list will be available shortly.

If you are a shop owner and you plan to follow along for the 2017 Children's Library Mystery BOM with a club or a gathering.
Please click here to sign up (Shopowners only, please!).



I highly recommend that with dark/light quilts you prewash your fabric. I don't want any tears later when you wash that quilt and it runs blue onto white ..eep! The step of prewashing can be done quickly and then you are ready to rock and roll the first week in January when the first block is published.
