My Hometown Charm sew along is a unit every other week, .... I LOVE to make a quilts with others, to sew along and share as we go. It so great to see your versions of my designs!. AND it's motivating to know that we are sewing as a club.. fun fun fun!
I am working us roughly across a row. We did the Orange peel block first, which was multiple blocks.
Then we did the Churn Dash Star, followed by the basket blocks... onto the fun heart!!
You can sew ahead, i know sometimes we get on a roll.. that's awesome if you do!
My Sew Alongs are designed to let you step out of your busy life, pick a section of a quilt and accomplish JUST that one piece. It's a GREAT feeling to select just a single unit to make with no expectation that more HAS to be done right now.
I really do put myself into my quilt designs. A heart is another all time favorite. Pieced, appliqued or embroidered, I love heart blocks!
Are you ready for sew strips? Then this is the perfect heart block for you!
ALSO add the row above it and the strip at the bottom.
