NICKELS AND DIMES CHALLENGE 2023

QUILT #1:   SPRING STARS

This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is image-1.png

This quilt and pattern can be found on EQ8 and was designed by Heidi Kory.

This is a fairly easy quilt to make.  There are only 37 blocks plus the sashing.

Here are the colors that I chose and as you can see, these all are from 3 different bins, white, pink/Valentine, and yellow and they are all different sizes from squares, strips to a few larger pieces.  I am mainly using scraps but EQ8 has a list of the fabrics needed.

White, pink and yellows.

Pink and Valentine.

And a mix of all three.

Here is a picture of the block. It should measure 6 inches square.

Have fun sorting through the fabric. So many ways to go with it and I thought that Valentine colors would be fun just to brighten up the room!

Will post block directions later. See you soon.

Since I am still having with my printer and scanning patterns, I am adding a link on how to make these simple blocks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aPfuAWv5uWw&t=302s

You will need to make 37 blocks altogether and remember that they will be facing in different directions in order to give it a star effect. Once I get a few made I will make sure and post the exact instructions on the sizes for the block.

The blocks should measure 6 inches altogether and I am attaching a grid that shows the size of the pieces of the block. It is a very simple block.

Or this one will work too. https://diyjoy.com/tulip-quilt-block-tutorial/
