Modern QAL: Quatrefoil Block

Although we have started the CrochetAlong, we are still also hosting our QuiltAlong over at And Sew We Craft. Our Modern Blocks quilts are growing month by month and this is our August block – Quatrefoil. This month the tutorial was hosted by Alyce from Blossom Heart Quilts so you can find tips and tricks over there to supplement the tutorial in the book.

My Little Miss chose the combination of fabrics for this block for me on a lazy Sunday afternoon and she has picked well, I think. I have a bad feeling I might run out of the red spot print by the end because I really love it and want to use it in every block! The washing line print is still making me smile too.

    I just love your ideas to show my little granddaughters the wonderful things that can be made by hand and not just purchased at a store,
    This is a art that is lost.
    Best regards
