Two Bucks a Block 2026

Thangles’ 2026 Two Buck a Block program

We are continuing our popular Two Buck A Block program on January 2, 2026.  This is in addition to the First Saturday program.  You can belong to one or the other, or to both.

You will purchase one block kit each month for $2.00 when you visit our shop (on any day during regular business hours).  You’ll sign up ahead, and we’ll check your name off when you receive the block. If you can’t come in during the month, you must purchase the block kit for each of the month(s) you missed for $3.00 in order to be eligible for the $2.00 block kits.  You can’t send someone else in to get your block for $2.00—they can pick your block up, but it will cost $3.00.  We will be happy to send blocks to you as well.  The price to send the blocks is $3.00 each, see below.  If you wish to purchase additional blocks, you can do so for $3.00 each.  One package of 2-1/4” Thangles is enough to do all 12 blocks (Thangles package is $7.00).

The 9” block each month will feature two fabrics.  Both are from Edyta Sitar of Laundry Basket Quilts, and every block will be the same.  You can finish your quilt however you want.  Finishing fabrics are not included.

The featured quilt is 67” by 82” with the twelve blocks and a fun setting.  You can also make an 82” by 97” quilt with 20 blocks.  You will receive both setting instructions in month 2.

FAQs:

Can I make a different size quilt?   You can make additional blocks with coordinated fabrics to make a larger quilt, or purchase more of the same fabrics.  You can finish the quilt any size you want. You might even have fabrics in your stash to add to the quilt to make it bigger!

Do I have to bring the finished block in to get the next block for $2.00?   You just have to come in at least once each month to get the next block for $2.00.  However, you are welcome to bring the blocks in, especially if you have any questions.  We’re here to help you!

What if I want different colors?   You can purchase the kits and change the colors if you want (the patterns aren’t available separately).

I haven’t used Thangles before—is that a problem?   Each package of Thangles comes with complete instructions, and each month, the pattern will feature tips for using Thangles.  By the end of the quilt, you’ll be an expert!

How do I get started?     Sign up starting November 1, 2025!  You can come into the shop, or call, or e-mail.  Come in once a month starting January 2, 2026 to get your block.  You can pick it up during First Saturday, or any time that’s convenient for you.

The price to send the blocks is $3.00 each, plus postage.  Because of the time and expense involved, we will charge you the beginning of the third month of each quarter, and mail them out together (early in March, June, September, December).  The mailing will take place after the last First Saturday of the quarter.
