BLOCK Magazine 2026 Volume 13 Issue 4 by Missouri Star Quilt Co.

I love the awesome patterns and stories that are always inspiring and true to our daily lives! I have a feed sack quilt top that my grandmother hand made in the early 1940s. She hand stitched on the flour sacks the girl holding the umbrella over her head. She is wearing a large skirt, and a Monet on her head. Sue bonnet I believe is her name. There are I believe 12 different girls. Each are made using the tiny animal print that was popular then.

The article of the feed sack fashion and depression-era quilting was very interesting. Of course, the patterns are great, but I do like learning new unique things about our hobby. Sometime in the future, I would like to make Grandmother Willow. Double Wedding Ring is definitely on my list of next year’s quilts to make.

This is a nice issue, but it is not an exciting, page-turner. I watched Jenny's video tutorial and followed the instructions in BLOCK Magazine. I entered it in the County Fair and took 2nd place. I messed up on the sashing in one little place, and I added the sashing to Jenny's version. I have an auto-ship subscription started with the very FIRST issue, and I will look forward to the next issue. I have loyalty to MSQC and Jenny's mission.

My quilt was one of those chosen for the community section. How cool was that. I never dreamed it would get selected. I love the detailed up close pictures that guide you through the process of completing a block.

I love the photos. That is what keeps me coming back to this magazine. I like the easy way to navigate each pattern after I choose my next project from the photos.

Great quilt magazine. It has a wonderful mix of patterns with very good instructions. Many patterns have video tutorials on Missouri Star Quilt Company's website that you can watch. I like the paper the BLOCK is printed on. Most BLOCK magazines have fun little stories included. I like that there is no advertising to distract from the patterns. All around, an excellent quilt magazine! I would love to dig right in making projects from the latest BLOCK, but I am working on six baby quilts for...

I enjoy the Block magazine for the variety of quilting articles and clear concise directions for making quilts. I like the variety of quilts represented, and in the 2026 Volume 13 Issue, I enjoyed reading about the history of quilts made in the USA, the Quilters Test Lab, the quilt designer articles, and specifically the Ingrid’s Blooming Bed Runner that involves hand embroidery that I love and hand stitching the blocks. The What If section is informative and fun. Other than this issue, I would...

The fact that it doesn't have any advertisements is a big plus. The quilt patterns range from simple to complex with really good instructions. It's a pleasure to read, and I've made quite a few quilts from your patterns. Thank you. Keep up the great work.

I ordered the Christmas box last year and it was wonderful. There are so many fabulous projects for me to do and some lovely gifts that I gave to two young friends that have just started quilting. I currently have way too much fabric and UFOs for another one now. Maybe in a year or two. I also like the article on Lorelei's quilting, fabulous. I have a subscription to Block magazine. I would like to do some of the table runners. I think maybe Ingrid's Blooming Bed runner would be great for my...

I love the stories and learning new quilting and piecing techniques. I love foundation paper piecing too, and it brings happiness to me every time I pick up a BLOCK magazine for new ideas or need a pick me up from the stories. I would love to see a pattern for a free download one day. I will probably start collecting fabric in batik for this project in spring, as I have the Underground Railroad from Eleanor Burns in progress with my quilt guild right now.
