Round 7
Round 7 runs April 1 thru December 2025! Patterns will drop on the 1st of each month at Noon Central Time.
This Round will follow a row by row format, with 9 rows total, all measuring 48″ wide. 4 rows will be 8″ in height, and 5 rows will be 4″ in height.
Round 7 is designed by Becky, NQM’s Dir. of Learning & Engagement, and is inspired by the natural world, and several NQM Collection quilts.
Block designs remain a mystery until they drop on the 1st of the month at Noon, so we do not have specific fabric amounts to give you. You are free to choose your own color schemes and fabrics to make your blocks.
Round 6 Label
Round 6 labels are coming! Quilts should include recognizable blocks from each month of R6, April – November 2024.
Quilts must be quilted and bound/finished edges to receive a label. If you have a couple quilts from Round 6, you can request additional labels by submitting a form and photo for each completed quilt.
Request your label using the form below, and please allow 8-10 weeks for shipping. (Shipping may be disrupted due to AQS QuiltWeek April 21-26).
All previous patterns are available here and in the Facebook group under Files.
You can join in at any time, mix & match from different Rounds, or create individual blocks as desired.
