QC~ Sew As You Go 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 there is only FOUR requirements:

1) you must use no less than 6 different fabrics;

2)NO batting;

3) no larger than 2 inch strip (finished size--so a 2.5 inch strip would result in a 2 inch finished size strip); and

4) Must use prints, no solids (tone on tones, batiks, etc is acceptable).

You will be able to use up some leftover cotton fabric you have hanging around! <3

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:

In the video she uses backing, batting and then the strips. In ours we will only use a piece of light colored fabric to sew the strips on to--and at a diagonal also. (Best way to do this is to start in the middle and work your way to the corners.)

You can start right away ~ senders choice in fabric! You can even fold your block in 3rds and it fits in a business envelope!

I am SO excited to be offering this swap in this size. It has been a LONG time since I've seen one that is 12.5x12.5"!!

Please, if you have any questions let me know.
