In 2021 we will have a monthly charity block initiative. These blocks will be collected and made into community quilts.
Each month will feature a new modern block in a specific color palette. This is a fun way to try a new and modern technique without committing to a whole quilt.
The blocks can be made at any time throughout the year, not just the month they are introduced.
- Please drop off your block at a distribution hub.
- Remember to fill in the donation form.
January | Improv Churn Dash
The January charity block is an improv version of the classic churn dash block. We made a wonky example, but you can use any modification you like. It would look great with curves, uneven sized sections or deconstructed. You could also make a smaller block and add sashing to make it big enough. We encourage you to have fun with it and try something new!
