### Your New Favorite Day of the Week Get ready to mark your calendar—Wednesday is about to become the highlight of your week. Moda Fabrics is bringing back the Blockheads Quilt Along for its seventh season, and it's bigger than ever. We're talking 30 weeks of shared creativity, tips, and quilting camaraderie. The first of 30 free block patterns goes live tomorrow, so there's no time to waste. Kimberly is joining the fun again this year, and she's stitching her blocks with the gorgeous Bloomsberry collection by Camille Roskelley for Moda Fabrics. Curious how she's prepping? Stick around—we'll show you exactly how to get ready too. ### You're Invited to the Quilting Party Moda Blockheads 7 kicked off on Wednesday, September 30th, and the final block will drop on Wednesday, April 28th. That's 30 weeks of inspiration, one block at a time. Every Wednesday morning, head to the Moda Inspiration + Resources blog for a dedicated post about that week's block. Then hop over to their Instagram and YouTube channels for weekly videos. These videos introduce the designer behind the block, walk you through construction, and point you to helpful notions and tutorials. Want the full scoop? You can watch the Welcome to Blockheads 7 video on their channel right now. ### Two Ways to Quilt Along This year, Moda is bringing back the flexible option to sew at your own pace. They're offering a paid pattern called Friends & Neighbors Blockheads 7 Quilt Pattern. Whether you grab that pattern or wait for the weekly free blocks, you're in for a treat. We'll all grow our skills, connect with a vibrant quilting community, and share loads of inspiration. And honestly, that's what it's all about. ### Kimberly Needs Your Help! So far, Kimberly has two fantastic layouts in mind, and she can't decide which one to sew. That's where you come in! Drop a comment below with your vote and stay tuned to see which layout she picks. ### Fabric Requirements for Moda Blockheads 7 Because this is a sampler quilt with different setting options and block sizes, the exact fabric requirements will vary. It depends on how scrappy you like your blocks, which setting you choose, and a few other variables. Moda recommends starting with: - 30-35 assorted print fat quarters - 4 yards of background fabric Kimberly is more than ready. She has 40 fat quarters from the Bloomsberry Fat Quarter Bundle and 7-8 yards of Bloomsberry White Favorite Dot on hand. She's all set to start sewing up a storm. > "Quilting is the art of stitching together memories, one piece at a time." — Unknown ### Share Your Creations We are sew excited to see what you make for Moda Blockheads 7!
