Block of the Month Series and Kona BOM 2024


Since April of 2023, I subscribed to sew sampler box from Fat Quarter Shop and been making the blocks regularly. This got me interested in other BOM series. By the end of 2023, I have joined the Sugaridoo Happy notes quilt along. I also joined 365 days quilt challenge. This post mainly updates the Kona BOM 2024.

January 2024, I discovered the Robert Kaufman BOM and absolutely loved the color choices.  The patterns are available at the Robert Kaufman website for free. I bought the Kona charm packs for these blocks from the Fat Quarter Shop. Also learned that some are making the blocks without using the suggested white background, which was not included in the charm packs. I challenged myself to do the same, but I took fabrics from different months to complete each block. There is one block here that I used kona white fabric from my stash.

Here are the blocks, in the order I made, so far.
