Each calendar month identifies holidays, has the previous and upcoming month at the top, has a Bible verse, and watercolor drawings for that month. There are no needles, threads, or fabric.This listing is for the calendar and the pattern directions and templates only.Calendar and pattern book fit into the large envelope. These are beautiful and detailed quilt squares with lots to look at and think about.They all fit together to make a landscape that is pretty amazing. See cover photo. From the directions - "The 2007 pattern book includes applique and piecing patterns, ribbon and thread embroidery patterns to embellish the appliqued blocks, plus instructions for applique, piecing, embroidery and beading. Yardage for the cover quilt or individual blocks is included along with yardage and diagrams for enlarging the quilt to fit a double, queen or king size bed." Also - "People are the same all over the world. Makes no difference what color is the skin, what language we speak or what country is our roots. We are living in a great transitional time of change and rebirth. Piecemakers lifts up their torch to honor every living soul breathing the same air we breathe, nurtured by the same earth, warmed by the same sun and created by the same God. This quilt is in honor then, of the toil and tears, laughter and joy, of each pilgrim whose time here on earth is short but indeed an absolute necessity." Also from the calendar - "In addition to the quilt, scriptures and lovely watercolor drawings by Marjorie Serr warm the calendar pages. A complete pattern book is included with full-size patterns and directions for all the quilt blocks, plus instructions for applique, piecing, embroidery, beading and quilt construction." Piecemakers is a group of religious people who live (at least they did in 2005) in a house in Costa Mesa, California.
