Project Sizes:

Finished size Applique + Background = 12" x 16"

We will select beautiful batiks that complement the applique pieces for each month and season.

BOM Program Also Available

Each month you will receive a Kit for the next month's featured wall hanging.

For example, around the end of June, you will receive the kit for the August wall hanging. This gives you about one month to complete your kit. This shows what you get with the BOM Club Top + Backing option.
