Block of the Month

Are you ready? The Blocks of the Month for 2024 have been chosen!

We will be creating blocks selected from the quilt book, Modern Quilts, compiled by Susanne Woods, and published by C & T Publishing.  If you want to glance through this book, just put in a request to Sharon-the-Librarian.  She will make the book magically appear, and then you will have the opportunity to view the 99 modern quilt blocks for inspiration.

In order to have a more cohesive outcome for the BOM winner, our background fabric each month will be off-white or cream, and for the modern print of your choice, we are asking the prominent color to be in a medium to dark value.  The unfinished block sizes will be 12 ½ inches.  Yes, larger than the 8 ½ inch block we did in January. 

Please sew as many blocks as you like and submit them to me at our guild meetings.  Be sure to write your name on an inside seam of the block(s) so that you can be entered in the drawing.
