LHQSQ - Block #23

Another 6” sampler block -

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” -

===

#23 - Simple Basket -

3 medium/light HST
4 MEDIUM/light HST (a second medium)
2 MEDIUM squares (the second medium)

Here again -

EQ7 wanted me to make this block -

With all of the MEDIUMS as one piece -

I could have used a template -

Or I could have cut a large triangle -

And then sewn a smaller triangle to the bottom right corner -

Or sewn a square - using the sew-and-flip method - to the bottom right corner -

Or a number of different things -

But I like trying to break these blocks down -

Into nine-patches -

It’s fun -

Try it - you'll see - ;))



Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
