The April Quilt is a beginner-friendly pattern that’s perfect for showing off your favorite fabrics — whether that’s a fat quarter bundle, a Layer Cake, or a pile of scraps you’ve been meaning to use.

This quilt is designed to be fun to make. The simple blocks come together to create a bold, grid-style layout that feels structured but still has a lot of movement, especially when you mix prints or play with a rainbow or ombre layout. 

Inspired by looking through a window, this pattern works especially well with a layer cake. If you sew the squares in the same order you cut them, the prints line up to create a window-like view.

The construction is straightforward, making this a great project whether you’re newer to quilting or just want something relaxing to sew.
