The Quilt Show BOM 2026/April

What colors to use next?

Ideas percolating.

April and May borders final decisions

Game On BOM 2026

 And off we go. 

This past weekend, I started the block of the month (BOM) that the quilt show is doing for 2026. I have made several of the qults over the year. 

The quilt parts are giving every month and it started in January 2026; but life has been happening  fast and furious, so I just have started this center piece in April. 

I am using a fat quarter bundle of "Gelato" by Maywood.

 It is the second quilt I make using this ombre fabrics. 

The center block shown here is made with patterns provided from January to March. 

The pattern is designed for paper piecing but I made it cutting the pattern apart. I am not using paper piecing. I find it easier and less time consuming. 

Now to month 4.

The 50 plus beautiful quilts that will be donated in April 2026 to the Sleep in Heavenly Peace.

The quilts were blessed at St John's the Divine Episcopal Church in Houston.

Finally they came to dine

Where are the Parents?

The nest was unattended. There are a lot of ducks around; but none near this nest.
