Hello, friends! I hope your week is going well. It’s hard to believe we are well into the first week of March and that spring is just around the corner. Today I’m sharing the March 2021 Quilt Block of the Month PDF pattern and video. I love all of the different blocks being made, and I can’t wait to see this month’s pattern being sewn as well.
March 2021 Quilt Block of the Month
2021 Block of the Month Details
Find information about the 2021 blocks as well as information specific to this month’s block below. If you are using a kit, please read the “A Few More Things” section at the end of this post.
- First, this is a mystery block of the month. (No full-size pictures yet).
- The quilt is a sampler with 12 different unique pieced blocks. No applique’ or paper piecing required.
- Patterns release monthly on the first Thursday of the month here on the blog.
- Each month, a step-by-step video tutorial sharing how to make that month’s block will be featured. Watch the video here on the blog or on the YouTube channel here.
- Get the Fabric Requirements for the finishing of the quilt in a few months. For blocks, I suggest 12-15 fat quarters for the large blocks (fat eighths will work for the small blocks). You’ll also need 2-½ yards of background for the larger blocks and 1-½ yards of background for the smaller blocks.
- Go here to get the January Block pattern PDF.
- And go here to get the February Block pattern PDF and block details.
- Download this month’s PDF pattern here or click the button below.
- And find the Mini Simple Folded Corners Ruler I used for this month’s block here.
March Block Video
Watch the March Block Video above, or go here to watch it on my YouTube channel. In the video I share tips for putting this month’s block together and walk you step by step through the assembly process.
A Few More Things
Find additional information below if you’re sewing along with the Happy Days fabric kits. Then, look below for a sneak peek of tomorrow’s new fabric and pattern releases.
- Kits shipped on Tuesday, March 2nd. USPS is being quite slow still, though.
- Kit fabrics are just a little different than what is pictured in my block and include background (A, C), red print (B), floral on cream print (E), coral print (D), and aqua print (F).
- Finally, the Happy Days fabrics should be shipping later this month, and then extra fabrics, backings, kits, and finishing kits will be available for purchase. Thank you so much for your patience.
Happy quilting, and thanks so much for stopping by!

Love this block for March 2021, but I noticed on page 2 it says March 2020. It doesn’t bother me but just thought I’d let you know. Love all that you and your daughter do for us. I watch your podcasts too and enjoy them thoroughly! Thanks so much!
sherri McConnell says

I’m am new at doing BOM.. I made the first block 12 inch block using fabric out of my stash. In your article the required fabric needed for background is 2 1/2 yds. Is that for the background fabric for the square and for setting the blocks together? I love watching your videos and excited about doing the BOM. Thanks
Patti McConnell says
So grateful for your enthusiasm and BOM! I enjoy watching your tips and I always learn something new! Your new fabric looks beautiful!
Christine Rudy says
Such fun anticipation!! I don’t think i will sleep tonight!! 🙂 Yummy, was my first thought, I am already dreaming of sewing with your new line. Also, anxious to hear what you named it??
Your Christmas Blocks are beautiful, love Christmas Figs as well,<3 But sewing 6" Block #2 strikes fear, the larger block was challenging enough, but, I am happy with how it turned out. A real skill builder!! So I will have to" give it a whirl" !!
Thank you for all you do to encourage and challenge us, but you "hold our hands" all the way, even if it is "virtual. I so appreciate the time you put into your videos, a much better way for me to learn. Show me!!
God Bless,
Chris R.
