Welcome to the April Color-of-the-Month slideshow, offering tips on using green in your quilt palette and featuring stunning color palettes that celebrate spring. This month I host Susan Branch, Jan Patek, Franchelle Contreras, and Pat Sloan, sharing fabric designs and gorgeous quilts. Get inspired to create a fabulous spring project and remember to support the participants of each month’s show!

Stay tuned until the final slide to see an announcement from me: be the first to get the scoop, because I’m sharing the word here first!
Hi Maria! Beautiful tablerunner – love the colors! I’m heading to the stash to select some that might work for this pattern. Something to play with this afternoon. Also, congratulations on the eBook. I have already purchased and downloaded a copy – if you wrote it, I have to read it. It looks like a timely book for all of us during this period in our “economic lives”. (I promise to comment on it when I read it.) All I can say is this: you are a busy, talented woman! I will also let you know when the Kennasaw Tablerunner Kit arrives (the one I won); so far, it hasn’t come to the PO, apparently the mail is slower than molasses. I’m looking forward to sewing that one soon after I receive it. Have a lovely spring day!
Hi Marie, I love the April runner, I really have trouble with greens,especially when I was picking them for the pink runner. I have finally now picked out all my fabrics but hope next week I will get started on it. I have been so busy sewing aprons for easter gifts but I will get back to quilting.
Thanks, ladies, for all the Spring Tulips love. This was a fun runner to design. We’re going to have big adventures in our forum too: I’ve already uploaded a checklist for getting Accurate Half-Square Triangles, and a video on Basting your Quilt. Subscribers had asked for a Free-motion quilting tutorial, and basting is the first and necessary, if not fun, part of that process. Look forward to seeing ya’ll in the online chat tonight!
