Alex and Ricky welcome back Becky Goldsmith to catch up and see what she’s been working on. Although known for handwork, she wanted to do something different for a change. An antique bullseye quilt she’d seen 30 years ago kept nagging her. It was a challenge to figure out how to make the piece using foundation piecing. Once the puzzle was solved, she was off and running making several bullseye quilts in a row.
Becky has also been selected as the 2019 BOM quilt designer. Her quilt, Sizzle, contains a combination of foundation-pieced circular designs with a touch of her signature appliqué.
In this show, Becky walks you through the fundamentals of the 2019 BOM and the building of a Bullseye quilt.

Hello!! I`m star member and I can't find the patterns. Thank you
I cut all the pieces for block number 1 (cool colorway).
Boy, did I get confused when placing the fabrics on the diamond paper pattern. The pattern pieces are labeled light, medium and dark but the designations do not correspond to the colors that were cut or to the picture of the assembled block.
In the "Construct the Block" section of the instructions there is a note, "The values in parentheses on the foundation paper-pieces may not match the values of the fabric in the Cool Colorway." I still spent quite a bit of time headscratching. I'm probably not the only one.
Perhaps a picture of the completed diamonds for the cool colorway might help?
