Welcome Sunshine quilt pattern with stencil templates. From Best Loved Quilt Patterns Series by Oxmoor House Inc. 1994.
From the introduction:
This happy baby quilt was designed and made by one of our editors as a gift for Melinda Goode, the Oxmoor House designer for much of Best Loved Quilt Patterns, on the birth of her second child. What a charming way to greet a much loved bundle of sunshine.
According to the instructions, this pattern will produce a quilt with 6 inch by 6 inch blocks, a quilt size of 48 by 48 inches. I would imagine if you’d like a larger quilt, just make more blocks.
The pattern and templates offered in this listing were designated in the “Picture Blocks” category. You will receive the brochure which tells the sizes, fabric requirements, amount of pieces to cut, and instructions for piecing your quilt. You will also receive the actual templates that is the exact size needed to cut all the pieces of material. The template is made of a hard, yet flexible plastic.
This pattern has never been used. If you receive templates that appears to have been cut out, that's because when first mailed out, templates for 2 or more quilts may have been imprinted on one 8 by 12 inch template sheet. To provide you with just the templates that you'll need for making this quilt, I had to separate them from unrelated templates.
About the series:
This is one of probably a hundred quilt patterns that I will be listing. These patterns were part of a monthly subscription series. Each month, the recipient would receive a pack of 3 different patterns. It took a several years to obtain the complete set.
Buyer to pay USPS First Class Mail parcel delivery charges of $3.95. Mailing is from Arizona.
SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT SHIPPING CHARGES: Twice yearly, and again in November for the holiday season (so three times per year) the postal service increases the shipping charges. This is what they call their "Delivering For America" plan in which they hope to become profitable. It's a 10 year plan that started in 2021, so we've got years to go with multiple price increases on shipping charges each year. I try to absorb the new charges and haven't increased my shipping charges in three years. This year unfortunately, I have to if I want to stay in business. I'll try to keep it reasonable and even absorb some of the increases when possible.
I do combine shipping on multiple items purchased as long as all items will safely fit into a single box. However, my web host is not set up to calculate multiple item shipping costs. At checkout, you will be charged full shipping price on each item purchased and I will refund the appropriate amount of overpayment. If you are uncomfortable with that, you can send me an email with your zip code and stating which items you'll be purchasing and I'll calculate the correct combined shipping charges and send you a custom invoice.
INTERNATIONAL PURCHASED: Sorry, I do not ship to locations outside of the United States.
All items in my listings come from either estate or garage sales. I do not know if they come from homes where smoking or pets were present. Unless otherwise stated, all items are sold in the same condition as when I obtained them.
