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.
