Y Not? BOM March
We are now on the third block! This is a really fun mosaic block. Blocks are now available in the store for pickup. You have until the 10th to pick them up for free! Don’t forget to bring in February’s block to show that you have it done.
There are several demonstration videos below. The first is on how to measure and sew a scant quarter of an inch seam. A scant quarter of an inch is a seam one thread width shy of being a quarter of an inch. The thread in a scant quarter of an inch should line up next to the quarter inch mark on your ruler when your fabric is flush with the edge of the ruler.The second video steps you through the block construction and has helpful pointers on how to match up your pieces.
This mosaic block would look great repeated through out a quilt. It has hidden pinwheels that appear when you put multiples next to each other. If you like this block and having your pieces die cut for you, contact us at wishuponaquilt@bellsouth.net or give us a call at 919-782-6363 and we can help you put your own custom quilt kit together. We’d be happy to calculate the fabric needed to produce the number of blocks you want and help you select fabric. There is a small cutting fee.
Feel free to contact us if you have questions or need help.
Happy Sewing!
