BLOCK OF THE MONTH - BOM
BOM 2021 - Color My World
February LIVE February 4, 2021
Enjoy "Color My World" by Wendy Williams - This beautiful quilt is constructed of soft and textural shot cottons from Windham fabrics on a richly patterned background. It offers so many opportunities for personalization through both embellishment and quilting- you could add house numbers, decorations, people, pets, garden flowers- there are so many ways to make this quilt truly your own!

Let's use this Topic "Color My World Show and Tell" as a place to show off your beautiful work. That way, you know where to come to see what everyone is doing.

The topics that apply to each month are a good place to ask questions or make suggestions for each block.

AND when you post your photos to Social Media, like Instagram, Facebook, etc., use either of these hash tags so everyone there will be able to find our wonderful work:

Barbara,

Thank you so much for your wonderful complements and sharing my compass on your Live video! I’m truly stunned!
I’m really enjoying this BOM, and I’m shopping my Kaffe Fassett Collective stash, with Art Gallery backgrounds. So glad that you liked my changes, and yes, that irregular stripe, which is Brandon Mabley’s “Crease” finishes at 1/4 inch - proving that a little goes a long way. I’m a big fan of Jacqueline de Jonge patterns so my changes were inspired by how she loves to use stripes in her quilts and her mastery of arranging color. I learn a lot about color trying to translate the batik color charts in her patterns into KFC fabrics.

Can’t wait till the March pattern release, this is a wonderful BOM!

Thank you again!
Beth

You are so welcome, Beth. It is exciting to see some of the thousands making this quilt tale it up a notch with their own unique changes. The original is a great quilt already and I love mine. But seeing other interpretations is inspiring too.
