Patchwork Sampler

Make quilts. Use fabric. Have fun.

One Measly Block

As far as sewing, that is pretty much what I’ve accomplished the past month.  This is the block and it took over an hour to make it but still…

JM-BOM

The block is called Modern Star and Pinwheel and is a FREE pattern right now on Judy Martin’s website.  Check it out here.

My small quilting group is doing a 12” block challenge for next summer’s Backyard Quilt Show and this block may or may not be used in a quilt for that challenge. So far, I don’t have a plan but the quilt show will be in July so I have plenty of time to come up with something.

The See You In September Blog Hop will be starting soon so I’ve been hard at work on the three projects I’m making for that.  My day is September 16 and I’m really excited to show what I’ve been working on this summer behind the scenes.  Over the next couple of weeks, I’ll show a few sneak peeks of those quilts.  I’m going to have to kick it into high gear to finish all three by the deadline!  The key word is “deadline.”  Don’t all quilters work best under pressure?

    Looks quite lovely…..I made mine and the points were great but I think I stretched it a bit so it wasn’t square.
