Did you know that March 20, 2021 is National Quilting Day? It’s a day sponsored by the Quilt Alliance and the National Quilt Museum. 2021 marks the 29th anniversary of National Quilting Day. You can participate by downloading a free copy of the World Piece Quilt Pattern from the Fat Quarter Shop.

So, I thought it would be fun and appropriate to share a round-up of 6 quilt block of the month programs for 2021 that you can easily join. Some of these programs have already started, but that doesn’t really matter. Which is one of the many reasons that these quilting programs are so good. You can join at anytime.

What is a Block of the Month Program?

What is a Block of the Month Program? A block-of-the-Month program, commonly called BOM, is a quilting club that you can join to make a quilt top in a specified amount of time, usually months. Some programs, like the ones listed here, are free to join and some have a subscription fee.

Of course, you’ll have to purchase fabric or use fabric from your stash, thread, batting and dust off your sewing machine and join one of these fun programs!
