Time for block #4 of our Christmas in July sew along, and it's my block!!
If you’re joining me for the first time visiting for the Mini Quilt Christmas Quilt Along, I'm so excited you are here! I'm Pat, and I’ve been quilting 'online' since 1999! I write quilt books, do videos and tutorials, host sew alongs, design fabric for Benartex, and share it all with my worldwide online neighborhood of quilters. Find out more about my sew alongs HERE and join my online neighborhood HERE
Block #4 is my favorite.. shhh.. don't tell the others
Block Four: Christmas Tree!
- I'm going to do a 'winter' version of Merry Mini with my Bonnie Lane blue, a little yellow and set it on white.. this snowflake feels sparkly!
- We still have the setting next week, July 29!
- BUY Bonnie Lane
TIPS
- I use the Design Board to keep the pieces in place
- Alphabitties match the cutting pieces
- Olfa cutter, the best!! Treat yourself to one, you deserve it!
- Corner construction
TIPS
- position whole unit on top of the larger triangle. I like to match the outer corners
TIPS
- Block is done!
- When sewing I often press open the seam to see where the point is
My other blocks!
Kimberly at the Fat Quarter shop has a great video to show you making the block. The supply list is very simple using a layer cake or 19 squares that are 10"
If you want to make like mine BUY my Bonnie Lane fabric
