Ready, Set, Sew! A Look Back at Blockheads 5 & What’s Coming for Blockheads 6

If you’ve ever joined in on a Moda Blockheads adventure, you know it’s more than just a quilt-along—it’s a full-blown fabric-fueled phenomenon. As we wrap up our fifth season and look ahead to Blockheads 6, we’re stitching together our favorite memories and giving you a sneak peek of what’s coming next.

 Blockheads 5: A Beautiful Patchwork of Creativity

Blockheads 5 was nothing short of spectacular. With 28 talented Moda designers at the helm, each week delivered a new block full of inspiration, challenge, and charm. Whether you followed along faithfully or jumped in here and there, we loved seeing how quilters across the world made these blocks their own.

From traditional to modern, beginner-friendly to advanced—there was something for everyone. We saw bold color palettes, unexpected fabric combinations, and oh, the fussy-cutting! Y’all showed off your creativity in the best way possible. Blockheads 5 was one of my favorite quilts I have ever made so the pressure is on for Blockheads 6. Setting layout I used can be found in this book.

Our Facebook group buzzed with energy, support, and a whole lot of fabric talk. It reminded us why we started this journey in the first place: to build a community that celebrates quilting together, one block at a time.

What’s Next: Blockheads 6 Begins Mid-May!

Mark your calendars and prep your fabric stashes—Blockheads 6 kicks off in mid-May and we have sew many exciting things planned. Just in case you are wondering I am not making mine blue and green. I made 3 different quilts using that color combination last year. If you know me you won’t be surprised on my color way for 2026.

Here’s what you can expect:

• Weekly Blocks from your favorite Moda designers (and maybe a few surprise guests ).

• Free patterns available on Moda’s blog and linked in the Blockheads Facebook group.

• Video tutorials to help you stitch with confidence will be on Moda’s YouTube Channel so be sure and subscribe.

• Tips, tools & inspiration to keep you motivated and having fun every step of the way.

Whether you’re a seasoned Blockhead or a first-time joiner, we’ve made sure Blockheads 6 will be your favorite yet. Think fresh designs, a community of thousands cheering you on, and weekly fabric therapy—what’s not to love?
