Descriptions:
April – 54 -40 or Fight
Here’s another classic quilting block that we’ve
jazzed up. By flipping the V Block units from
their traditional placement and using a solid
square for the center, we create a four pointed
star block. Also, here’s your fun history fact for
the day: 54 40 or Fight was the slogan of James
Polk’s presidential campaign in 1844, which he
won, becoming the 11th president of the
United States.
May – Three- in- One
Three-in-One is another BlockBuster I count
among my favorites because it’s just so exciting!
By using a variety of units (V-block, combination
units, and quarter square triangles) you’re able
to make three very different looking blocks,
simply by changing their orientation. Honestly,
it’s amazing the different blocks that you can
create with this combination of units.
June – Twisted Pinwheel Block
I mean, who doesn’t love a pinwheel block?
They’re so fun to make, and this is a really
interesting iteration using some non-traditional
blocks. It’s also another excellent example of
how you can end up with very different looking
blocks depending on your color placement
choices.
