Description
A year-long round robin quilt with surprises at every turn
How It Works
Purple Monkey Pizza Box Club is a round robin style quilt project that runs for the full year. Each month, members create a Churn Dash block with a crazy quilt center, using a designated color scheme. Blocks rotate between members, and by the end of the year, everyone receives a completely unique quilt made by the group.
What You’ll Do Each Month
Each participant receives a pizza box that holds their fabrics and travels with the group throughout the year. Every month, you will make one block for another member using the assigned color for that month, then place it into their pizza box. Boxes rotate monthly so everyone contributes to each quilt.
Meetings are for swapping and handoff. Sewing is typically completed at home so blocks are ready on time.

Fabric Responsibilities
Members provide their own background fabric and Churn Dash rail fabric. Each month, members are also responsible for providing the designated color fabric used to create the block for that month’s swap partner.
Good to Know
This club requires full commitment and strict monthly participation so no one is left without blocks.
A $20 fee will be enforced if you miss a meeting or do not complete your swap.
Because this is a swapping club, no new members may join after the first meeting. Signing up means committing to the entire program so it remains fair and fun for everyone involved.
