Sorry I am so dense, but what does BOM mean??? I see posts with "BOM" in post, what is that? Thanx for clearing this up for me. Hugs & Thanx, Judy

[for me] it means Branch Officers' Meeting, because it is a Country Women's Association term. But in the quilting world it is Block of Month.

Thanx!!!

Don't feel bad. When I started reading here as a new embroiderer, I kept reading about FSL and was completely baffled. I Googled all over the place before I was able to figure that one out. But I wasn't brave enough to ask like you were!. :)

I asked what FSL was when I saw it, and got a whole list of abbreviations. Was told there was more too.

I also had to ask about FSL, but have done FSL now, so I don't think I will forget that one soon!!! Thanx much for commenting. Hugs, Judy

For me it means Big Ole Mess. Usually goes in the trash can. Just joking. Block of the month.
