Welcome to Moda BlockHeads BOW Week 3!
I think we are all having a great time making and posting our BlockHeads blocks of the week. If you haven't joined the Facebook group, Moda Blockheads, you are missing the photos from the group members. In the short time it has been up, over 700 photos have been posted!!! I'm trying to 'like' them all and of course I do like them, but with as many as there are, I'm sure I'm missing many. The group numbers are approaching 3000 members, 2946 to be exact, at this writing (Tuesday). WOW!
I've been away for several days teaching at Greenbriar Retreat center in East Texas....great place, great food, great students!!! And forgetful teacher! Yes, that would be me, who forgot to take a single photo of the blocks made this weekend. UGH! My apologies for talking about a great retreat with NO photos! Workshop was Mary Ann's Baskets from Classic and Heirloom book.
Monday, I made this lovely block designed by Jo Morton.
You will need to go to Jo's blog for the pattern.
Jo calls this block Four X. It is 6" finished. I decided to keep this block simple and let the fabric do the talking. Fabric this week is from the soon to arrive, Rachel Remembered.
I'm having fun with 3" blocks! And evidently so are you! I'm so happy to inspire this little unplanned extra! This week's Mini Penny is a 3" version of Jo's block. The red and background prints were used in Week 1.
Enjoy making Four X! and be sure to see Lynne's, Jan's, Lisa's, and Carrie's blogs, to see the fabrics they used for their blocks. (click on their name, or see below for all social media links)
Happy Sewing!
Until next time ~

ReplyDeleteThat fabric is lovely! And now I'm wondering whether I want to you two, three or four fabrics for this block!
ReplyDeleteI love your little mini blocks! The 'big' ones are fun too but the minis are even cuter!
