Create Stunning Projects with This Updated Block
Go Bright and Bold or Soft and Sweet!
Open up a whole new world of creativity with this updated classic quilt block. Bright and cheerful colors give it a modern look and create stunning projects when blocks are combined. Softer colors will be just as beautiful in this versatile block.
Depending on color and value placements, the block can look entirely different every time you make it. A coloring sheet is included to help you visualize the results as you’re choosing colors.
Complete one of the smaller block sizes for a fun potholder or table mat, or combine several for an eye-catching quilt. The block is easy to make with paper piecing and you’ll achieve precise results. You’ll find excellent FPP instructions here.
