Kat @ Kat and Cat Quilts Covered in Love often offers a quarterly Block Drive. She announced the Spring Block Drive in this week's blog post HERE. In that post, Kat showed a couple of quilts recently dropped off for donation.
Here is the block that I made yesterday based on the farmhouse vibe requested:
Thank you, Kat! I have been waiting for a for a reason to try this block. I dove into my 2 - 2 7/8" scrap drawer and chose the appropriate colors and sized scraps. The instructions are thorough. The block layout is very easy and the block goes together quickly:
I am thrilled to have used some scrap fabrics for a good cause. If YOU have some scraps that fit the theme, I'm sure that Kat would LOVE for you to make a block or two ( or ten!)
Update...
If you want to use bigger pieces and make a quilt instead of a block, check out super cool video by Sew, Yeah on YouTube using 6.5" x 12.5" pieces or check out Stephanie's video @ Quilting with Stephanie's Stitches HERE for a 60" x 72" quilt. You might want to check with Kat before you send it off to her, as I can't recall the finished size she likes for the hospitals served by her charity.
Until next time...
SEW some love!!
Neat block and looks like a great use for scraps.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a fun block to make.
ReplyDeleteGreat scrappy block! Thanks for the links.
ReplyDeleteI haven't sent any blocks to their drive in a couple of years, but I may have to do some this time. I've made a bunch of the Potato Chip blocks thanks to a challenge in our Sew Vintage group locally. They are kind of addictive.
