I'm doing this BOM and the 2021 Old School BOM. I'm doing both in the same colors.

Queenbarbiej ~ Great fabrics and pretty block! I’m also hoping to complete the Old School BOM.

I’m working on the February block but it’s turning into a Murphy’s Law battle. I thought these would go more quickly, but I sure seem to spend a lot of time just picking which fabrics to use. Then I decided to do the half-square triangles with the paper sheets but picked the wrong size, so every single one had to be cut down. I haven’t decided if it would have been easier to just re-do them from scratch. I’m finally to the stage of sewing all the 2” blocks together and working carefully to get the points as sharp as I can. Hope to have it finished to show in the next day or two.

When it's a BOM, how many blocks of each do you do?

Great collection of Queenbarbie...your January block looks lovely.

Watson, usually 12 blocks...

Watson, I just checked. It's 12 blocks. You can either make a 6 or 12 inch block. I'm doing 12.

But we just make one of each month's block, correct?

SusieQOH

Yes, joe'smom- that's correct.
I'm just getting started with January's block and printed both( Feb too). Looks like fun!

Is there any easy way to get to the block of the months on A Quilting Life website? It took me about ten minutes to find it. Only way I found it was putting in Aquiktinglife.com/2021.

Queen, I think your way is the easiest. Otherwise you have to go through all the blog posts. At least that's been my experience.
Maybe when March comes along if I can remember I'll post a link here.
