Make a Darling Bike block for a Mini Quilt and More
The Block Can Be Used Many Ways!
This darling little pieced bike evokes memories of carefree sunny days with a breeze fluttering through your hair. Finish the block off for a sweet mini quilt or incorporate it into a larger project.
The block is part of the Snapshots Quilt Along presented by The Fat Quarter Shop in 2015 (learn more here) and was designed by Bonnie and Camille. The other blocks in the quilt are wonderful too, but there’s something extra special about the bike.

The block is intricately pieced, making it more challenging than some. However, it’s just a series of basic units sewn together to create the design. Take your time and enjoy the process.

Sondra from Out of the Blue Quilts has created instructions for a mini version of the block. It measures 6″ x 8″ once completed.
