| Use It In Many Types Of Projects!
Make something special to decorate for summer with this fun block. Watermelon wedges spiral in a charming block that can be used in many types of projects.
Add borders and finish one block into a wall or table quilt for a quick finish. Use two or more blocks to make a table runner or create several for a larger quilt.
The block is made using a stitch-n-flip method, making it suitable for the confident beginning quilter. Fusible applique is used for the seeds.

PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest has featured many patterns from vendors participating in the Craftsy Marketplace, most of which have been deleted by Craftsy. It's going to take awhile for us to hunt down new sources for those patterns. In the meantime there are many links to patterns on our site that no longer work. We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you!
PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest does not sell or otherwise provide patterns directly. We showcase patterns and projects from various vendors, bloggers and other sources. Please make a note of where you access a pattern (the link in the yellow box toward the end of each Quilting Digest article). That way you can contact Support for that source if you have downloading problems or other issues. Thank you!
