Month #1 of 2014 "SEW AS YOU GO" Striped block!

Each month you will use the "sew as you go" method to make your partner 1 striped quilt block ~ 12.5" X 12.5" and the only two requirement is you must use no less than 6 different fabrics. Also NO batting. You will use some plain or leftover cotton fabric you have hanging around.

Stripes can go horizontal, vertical or on an angle.

When you have enough squares to make a quilt, you will add your own batting and whatever you pick for a backing.

Here is the awesome tutorial you will use for this block!

I love Jenny!

Update ~ if you want you can always make your blocks 13" X 13" ~ that way if your partner ever wanted to they could cut the block into 4's for some verity!

Okay I need help lol... Should we use batting and backing on our send out blocks and then we will add batting and backing again when we have enough blocks to make a quilt?

No, just the piece of fabric you will sew your strips to!
