Hello, friends! Today I’m excited to share the Bright Side Quilt Along with blocks I designed in our Happy Days fabrics for Fat Quarter Shop. These blocks will be included in the Sew Sampler boxes beginning with the April 2021 Sew Sampler. I’m also sharing all of the products included in this month’s box. Even if you’re not a Sew Sampler Box subscriber, you’ll be able to find the April products as well as everything needed for the Bright Side Quilt Along.

Bright Side Quilt Along
Each month’s Sew Sampler Box from Fat Quarter Shop will include one of the Bright Side block patterns. But you can also find the pattern cards in paper and PDF from Fat Quarter Shop. In addition, there are fabric kits, backing sets, and even a fun coordinating Aurifil Thread Bundle you can find here. I’ll be sewing along each month and sharing my blocks. You will absolutely love the fun and unique setting for this quilt, too!

I was excited to see you were the designer for the Sew Sampler Box blocks for this year. If I wanted to plan ahead for the fabric selection, is there anywhere that lists approximate fabric requirements for the 12 blocks?
Debbie Hays says
Is this quilt going to be beginner friendly? I would love to take part in this quilt along but I’m not proficient in difficult block construction.
Thank you!

I was wondering when the May Block of the Month would be coming out?
sherri McConnell says
Block of the month patterns always come out on the first Thursday of the month 🙂
Kelly says
I would like to also know the amounts of fabrics as I want to do a different color palette .
sherri McConnell says
I’m not sure that has been shared by Fat Quarter Shop yet…
Adrian says
I’m excited to join in on my very first quilt-along! Would you please share a link to the fabric requirements for the quilt? I saw someone had a small picture of it on Facebook, but not sure where to find a copy to print out. Wanting to plan and get going on this before I fall behind!
Thanks much!
sherri McConnell says
Since it’s a scrappy mystery…the requirements are very basic. You can find them on the April post. I’ll share finishing requirements in the next month or so 🙂

Hi Sherri.
Would you also tell me if it is charm pack friendly?
I just got my first pattern and very much excited to make this quilt!
