Welcome to the Quilts4Kids ‘Year Long ~ Stitch-A-Long’.

~ The instructions are simple ~ You can stitch anything suitable for a boy or girl ~

• You fit whatever pattern you are stitching inside either the heart or circle outline pattern available below.
• If you have a PC Stitch program, the outline patterns are available for download (please stitch on 14 count aida).
• If you don’t have a PC Stitch program or if you have any trouble downloading the patterns, contact me and I’ll email you one.
• The idea is everyone is stitching with the same pattern outline but the surprise will be what you put inside.

You don’t have to sign up for these squares, just send them in when they are done. I am hoping we get some lovely, interesting quilts from these squares.

Below are a few sites to show what sort of thing can be done ~ remember these are suggestions only ~ pattern choice is yours !
