Right now it is raining outside which is perfect for April showers. Easter is this Sunday and I thought PINK would be the 2026 April Color of the Month.
April Color of the Month Challenge 2026
You can pick any shade of PINK and you can make any quilt block or quilt project. It doesn’t have to be the Churn Dash quilt block.
Pink Churn Dash Quilt Block
Here are my pink Churn Dash quilt blocks. I really enjoy using my leftover batiks from my Island Batik ambassador quilt projects. I used a mixture of batiks and cotton quilting fabrics. I do this quite often. The white is a premium muslin.
8 Churn Dash Quilt Blocks
So far I have 8 Churn Dash quilt blocks, January was teal, February was red, March was green, and April is pink.
April Giveaway
Be sure to enter the Linky Party this month for a chance to win a bundle of Stash Builders from Island Batik.

Connie,
Happy birthday!
I love the Misty! Gorgeous colors of course pink is my fav!
It’s my birthday this month too. April 18th. Just another day here. No one to celebrate with but my Chihuahuas.
It’s a busy time with my guilds. The block I sent I’m working on for retreat tomorrow! Then it’s quilt camp next weekend and guild meeting the Tuesday after that. Busy is a good thing when it comes to sewing.😁 Happy quilting 🪡

Thanks Lisa and Happy Birthday early to you! Thank you for adding your pink block!
So many pretty pinks! Your Churn Dash blocks look so pretty. April already??

Love all your pink projects- very bright and cheery. Anxious to see the Color of the Month Churn Dash quilt finished. So far, all looks very good.
Wishing all a very Blessed and Happy Easter celebrating the Resurrection of Christ and our promise of eternal life through Him.
Thank you Beverly, that probably won’t be until next January. I hope you have a very happy Easter also.
I didn’t see a link for the Linky Party so thought I’d just leave a comment. I enjoy reading your blogs and have used a number of your patterns over the last several years. Thank you for their availability!
As to the pink project, I sent an email with the picture as you suggested. It is a baby blanket–Scrappy Irish Chain. It is all from my pink scrap bin! except the back and binding. I have sooo many scraps! Thanks again for all the good ideas and patterns.
I sent you a email as the picture wasn’t attached to your email.

Thanks Norma, I hope to see your project!
