August – Summer Sun
The BOM for August is a cheery way to bring a bit of that summer sunshine inside and chase away some of the blues we all can feel in this time of isolation. Follow the colorway given in the pattern – yellow for the center, oranges for the points, and a light blue for the sky/background.
Directions are on the AQS Blog.
July – House Block
As we all stay safe at home as much as possible, please enjoy making this block your version of home. Use green for the grass, blue for the sky, and anything goes for the house.
Directions are on the on the Uncommon Threads Quilt Guild’s site.
June – Snail’s Trail
For June let’s make a Snail’s Trail block in blues and yellows. for the dark colors in the pictured block use blue fabrics and for the light color use yellow fabrics

May – Young Man’s Fancy
This month’s block is a little more complicated than usual, but I figure many of you also have more time on your hands than usual. No color limits other than to keep the background pieces light. Have fun with it!
