Our Crossroads Quilt Along benefits March of Dimesthey are an amazing organization whose mission is to prevent premature births. Today, one in ten babies are born prematurely, and many will not survive. Join us along with March of Dimes to ensure all babies have a fighting chance.

We created a limited supply of quilt kits and pieced backing sets using the Strawberry Fields Revisited collection by Fig Tree Quilts for Moda Fabrics. If you want to use your own fabrics, download our Fabric Requirements PDF
Our Crossroads quilt blocks are FREE to download on the 15th of every month starting in February 2016. We only ask a suggested donation of $5 to our March of Dimes campaign for each time you download our patterns.
