Port and starboard – Block 4 – 2026 Boom Diddy Boom Block of the Month (BOM)

Boom. Diddy Boom Block of the month - Oh Susannah - Block 4

Port and Starboard is Block 4 of the Boom Diddy Boom Block of the Month. This block is all about direction and balance, so taking a moment to check fabric placement makes a big difference.

Like the other blocks in the series, it finishes at 12″ x 12″ and is part of the final 54″ x 68″ sampler quilt. The construction process is shown in full in the video tutorial.

The Boom Diddy Boom BOM runs on Patreon and replaces my yearly Quilt-Along.

  • Tier 1 members get access to all the video tutorials.
  • Tier 2 and Tier 3 members also receive the downloadable PDFs to make the blocks and quilt.

If you like sewing along at your own pace with clear video instruction and optional written support, Patreon is where everything lives.
