LHQSQ - Blocks - 9 - 10
DESIGN WALL MONDAY -
Check out all of us who link up with Judy L. at Patchwork Times on Mondays.
We have some awesome stuff on our walls!
Well, THEY do - ME - not so much sometimes - ;))
===
Note - these instructions are written in LEFTISH.
If you are right-handed - just reverse the directions.
============
Here are TWO more different 6” sampler blocks -
That you can make using -
2-1/2” squares
and HST that FINISH at 2”
Three across and three down -
Variations of the basic NINE-PATCH -
The sewn block will MEASURE 6-1/2” -
And FINISH at 6” -
===
If I take Block #8 -
A classic SNOWBALL block -
And turn the HST again -
And switch out the top - center - and bottom light middle squares -
For dark ones -
I get Block #9 -
A SPOOL block -
Turn two of the corner HST -
Substitute 4 mediums and one dark/medium -
And I get Block #10 -
A CALICO PUZZLE -
Ten blocks so far -
Using only squares and HST -
Cool, huh? ;))
Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
