It’s Perfect for Summer and Patriotic Holidays!
Bold red and white stripes radiate from a deep blue center in this striking Americana block. The eye-catching results will be beautiful in many types of projects.
Multiple block sizes give you many design options. It’s perfect for quilts, wall hangings, table runners, pillows, and other patriotic sewing projects.
Since the block is created with foundation paper piecing, quilters of most skill levels can achieve crisp, accurate results. You’ll find excellent FPP instructions here.
