New Block- Folk Art Tribute


The latest block is ready. It finishes at 12"x 48". I pieced my background with the seam down the center. You will need to make bias stem using the 1/2" bias tape maker. I used about 21" on each side of the pineapple. I have several photos to give you a good look. Also I have a photo of the layout. Keep in mind that the 12" blocks can be swapped around. Here is the link.



Hope you guys like it. I think it's pretty darn cute, if I say so myself. You will notice I am only showing one version. My schedule is pretty hectic, so for awhile I will only be doing one version until I get caught back up.


The next layer cake pattern is ready for quilting. Here are a couple of sneak peaks.





Happy Quilting, Dawn
