Here are my fabrics, all cut out and ready to sew!
For those who are joining in the quilt along, I have decided to have a linky party where you can share your progress throughout the quilt along. So if you have chosen your fabrics and have them all cut out and written a post, feel free to link up here!
Click on this link ===> MOD Bear Paw QAL page for all the details and to see the schedule.
A quilt along is always more fun than quilting alone.
Want to get in on the fun?
Then grab a button below and share it on your blog!
If you are interested in quilting along, please add the button to your blog and help to spread the word. Also…. Please feel free to share via social media! And add the hashtag #MODbearpawQAL
It is not necessary to purchase the pattern in order to participate. But if you would prefer the convenience of using a printable pdf pattern, MOD Bear Paw is available for purchase and includes complete cutting instructions and a detailed guide to finishing the entire quilt in any of the four different sizes listed. The pattern is available in my pattern store here.
Keep On Quilting On!

I am cutting a few blocks at a time as my time schedule is very hectic – will give me handy pieces to play with when I can find the time. Even though I bought the pattern, I know I am going appreciate your help especially when it comes to adding in the bear.
You have chosen some fab fabrics, with little tractors and so much more, Wonderful detailed instructions, I am giving this a miss, but know everyone who is joining in will have heaps of fun once more.
I'm making a 68×84 size quilt. Nothing like adding a little challenge to my cutting :)! Looking forward to this week's cutting and preparing. Love the fabric choices you made for your quilt.
Just found your quilt along via cyberquilters. i am jumping in. I love your pattern and have been wanting to make a bear claw for a long time….so the time is right! Thank you!
Thanks for the QAL Lorna! I got my fabrics picked and will be cutting them this week.
