The Wildwood Sampler is the eighth annual Block of the Month programme that Nicola and I have collaborated on and will run for nine months, from October 2026 until June 2027. As a participant you will receive an exclusive early access pattern book and beautifully packaged kits containing everything you need to create the quilt top and binding.
We'll be using Nicola's favourite tried and trusted techniques, which include simple machine piecing and adding simple embroidery embellishments. We'll include any little extras you will need and, as always, a few lovely surprises, just because. This year we're thrilled to be sewing with Tilda's Village Life collection in the scrumptious woodland tones of the autumn palette.
The programme also includes: special password-accessed blog posts, where Nicola will be sharing her inspiration and guiding you through the techniques we cover; exclusive filmed tutorials for each block; and a creative community hub where we can share our trials, tribulations and triumphs. And given the continued uncertainty surrounding postal rates and tariffs, you'll have the choice of a full kit, rather than monthly parcels, delivered at the beginning of the programme. Please note that there are limited places available for this Block of the Month. If choosing the monthly option, your packages ship on the second Tuesday of each month, and payments come out on the first of the month.
"Put on your cosiest jumper and join us for a woodland adventure: we'll build a
den, forage for our supper and snuggle up under a quilt that savours the season of
rest. We’re delighted to invite you to join us to make the Wildwood Sampler." ~Nicola Dodd
