Four Patch Block of the Month

Created On: November 22, 2022  |  Updated: January 1, 2023  |   21 Comments

The four-patch block of the month is a fun and simple quilt to make in 2023! This pattern doubles as a calendar that you can use throughout the year, in addition to being a year-long quilt pattern

Each month’s block is simple to make and comes together quickly. Four-patch blocks are a great opportunity to grow your skills because each block requires that you repeat the same sewing steps four times to make the four units that make up the block. You then stitch these four similar units together to make the quilt block. At the end of the calendar, you’ll find finishing instructions for stitching the blocks together into a completed quilt.

In addition to the fully illustrated instructions in the pattern, a video will be released at the beginning of each month taking you through the making of that month’s block. You can use the written instructions, follow along with the video, or both! Watch this first video about the Four Patch Block of the Month! And subscribe to my YouTube channel here for future videos.

In December of 2023, the finishing instructions video will also be released, showing you how to stitch the blocks together to make the finished quilt.

Each month of the calendar includes a fun photo of the finished block, along with the pattern instructions. The calendar includes room to record upcoming events. Use it to keep track of guild meetings, quilt retreats, and sales at your local quilt shop!

The Four Patch block of the month quilt finishes at 60″ x 75″. You can select your own fabrics, or get the Fabric kit to make the quilt below.

      All you need is the calendar – and then just follow along! If you’re on the email list, you’ll also get monthly reminders.

    How do I purchase only the calendar so I can use my fabrics? This is a great idea!

          The file isn’t currently set up to be a PDF – the images are *HUGE* and everything would have to be completely resized to make a PDF file that isn’t completely gigantic. Unfortunately, that is not an option right now. I have fixed shipping so that if you order multiple copies, you’re only charged shipping for one. So, perhaps you can get together with some quilty friends and put in a group order so that you can split the shipping cost?

    Love your blocks. I prefer written directions and not videos. I only watch videos when I need help with written directions. I realize that writing directions are difficult.
    Thank you

      I’m a big fan of written directions as well! If I have a video, I want the written directions in addition to the video. So that’s what I’ve done here – there are full written directions for each block. You don’t need to watch the video at all. But some people prefer seeing each step done on video, so I’ve done that as well. The best of all worlds! 💕
