Kathleen’s Story – Chunk of the Month
Starts February 2026 • 10-Month Program • Finished Size: 68" x 71"
Discover a new twist on the classic Block of the Month with Kathleen’s Story—the first-ever Chunk of the Month program from Marcus Fabrics, designed by Chris Schulte of Green Light Quilts. Instead of repeating uniform blocks, you’ll work on a unique “chunk” of the quilt each month, combining basic piecing, a touch of appliqué, and Chris’s signature raw-edge blooms for projects that feel fresh and rewarding from start to finish.
The design is a heartfelt tribute to Chris’s mother, Kathleen, an avid seamstress and needlework enthusiast whose creative spirit shines through every detail. Delicate florals, paisley, buds, and tone-on-tones pair beautifully with a cross-stitch panel and eight tonal Strip-It™ fabrics, offering 40 prints for endless scrappy combinations. The palette—sage, coral, dusty blue, butter, and warm neutrals—brings a soft, timeless elegance that works year-round.
Each month’s section is different, giving you the joy of variety and the satisfaction of watching an original, non-repetitive quilt come together piece by piece.
