ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilt block! So nice to see it broken down into simple steps.
ReplyDeleteLove the block. I am retired and a fairly new quilter (the quilting bug hit me late in life -70's) LOL Is it possible to make all the hst's at once since there are 8? Using 2 squares (one white and one colored) sewn around all 4 sides then cut each diagonal and quartered? Thanks so much.
