This is one is not free but the colorway is right up my alley... And, Rob Appell will be doing tutorials for the designer, too. So, traditional blocks with a modern twist...and, I so know you have the stash for this!! Lol..

Debby Brown is doing a quilt a month using 2.5” squares made into 16 patches. This month it’s using the 16 patch as a whole block. It looks like one month, we will be cutting the 16 patches up for the quilt design. It is free and she will give an idea of how to quilt it on your domestic machine each month.

I recently became a paid member at The Quilt Show and am contemplating participating in their BOM which is called Color My World by Wendy Williams.... it is a free pattern if you are a paid member. I hope no one posts anything else that looks too interesting.....I am going to be so busy with just these and my other projects!

After your post, I went to The Quilt Show. The 2021 BOM looks impossibly difficult to me, but I really liked the 2020 BOM by Sue Garman. I joined and downloaded the patterns today and may follow along, one year behind. I’m not 100% sure because I promised I would alternate a new project with a UFO and right now I am working on Bonnie Hunter’s Grassy Creek mystery quilt. However, I have come close to completing the top on another long standing UFO just by using the pieces as leaders/enders for Grassy Creek. So maybe I can justify another new project.

My friend and I are doing this BOM from And Sew It Began in Texas https://www.andsewitbegan.com/. It’s a modified version of Long Time Gone by Jen Kingwell done in 1930s fabric. You have to call the shop to sign up. It’s $23/mo but doesn’t include backing or border fabric.

I am planning to do The Quilt Shows Colour My World. I will use my own fabrics as I have lots and I cannot afford to buy the kit.

Don't you just love that quilt? I thought it was so beautiful. I agree the cost is out of my budget too. I would like to participate but I think I will lag behind. I think the first month she said you had to make 16 houses. I just don't think I could keep up and do my other projects too. I suppose there are no rules that you have to finish in one year. Please show your progress.
