I found the Seattle Modern Quilt Guild’s Block of the Month (BOM) for 2024 while wandering around on the internet. Probably wandering on the internet when I was supposed to be doing something else, but whatever. I liked the quilt and all the instructions were right there (for this year so far), free for anyone to use. Here’s the link.
I followed the instructions up through September, then improvised for the rest of the blocks because I can’t stand to have something like that unfinished, waiting for instructions. Here’s the result:
Linda Nichols quilted it using the “Retro Lines #1” design from Urban Elementz, and I think it goes perfectly with the quilt.
Tthat little print in the circle is another thing I did just to practice inserting a whole circle. I think it gives the quilt “personality”.

I’m catching up on some binding (I’m actually months behind!) so it’s going to look like I’m making a quilt every week, but I’m not!

You did pretty good at ad libbing the remaining BOM blocks! Your quilt looks great, and I’m impressed that it’s quilted already. This is really nice! I was a bit more patient (smile) and waited to complete all the BOM blocks, so my top is just now finished. I plan to do the quilting by the end of the year though, so it can be a 2024 finish.
Oh, good for you! I look forward to seeing “the real thing”!
‘personality’? Like, totally! 🙂
Ha! Thanks 😀
Impressive job with improvising the rest of the blocks – wonderful little quilt!
Thanks, I enjoyed this quilt. And of course Linda waited and followed all the instructions, as I presume you’ve seen 😀
Lovely quilt, I love the colours they’re cheerful but not eye scorchingly bright
Thanks. And yes, I enjoy these colors, though I won’t rule out scorchingly bright in future!
You continue to amaze me with your many and varied creations. I am surprised that you have time to wander around on the internet 😄
Ha! Wandering on the internet is an important element of avoiding house cleaning!
Ah, I understand!
