Week 1 - cutting fabrics

These posts will always be available so start when you're ready!

 

Today we sew Block As!

These blocks sew together easily with no nesting seams. This week it is just a matter of making the time to get the blocks sewn.

I noticed when taking my photos how many of my sewing room accessories match the Good Vibes fabric! I might need to make myself a pincushion too ;)

Chain piecing 

Chain piecing makes quick work of the blocks. When you chain piece,  you sew pieces together without cutting the thread between each pair. This block is easy to chain piece in steps over the week. 

Following the pattern, you will be able to lay out your cut fabrics to keep track of where they go in the block and then start sewing!

Week 2 to dos

~ Sew together the Block As

Remember, you have all week! You can do these one unit at a time and chain stitch. Find 10 minutes a day and you will be able to complete these blocks regardless of what else is going on in your life.

Use the pattern to layout your fabrics to make sure you sew them together in the right order ;)

The pattern also gives directions for which direction to press the seams in your block to make putting the quilt top together easier.
