Fantastic Quilting Weekend
#24
The pattern is from the 'Quiltmakers 100 Blocks, Vol 4' magazine and is the Quatrefoil (Block 330) block. I have done a smaller one in red, white and black and thought I would try out the full size one in 2 colours. There are more rows to be added but it looks good so far.
I should add that Heidi had never used a sewing machine until she started making her blocks. Following the lines on the foundation pieced blocks gave her the confidence to start and continue and I think is why she has enjoyed it so much. But I got her to make a 9 patch (with no lines to follow) - just using the 1/4 guide on the sewing machine and she managed fine, even unpicking one row because the seams didn't match.

I love seeing them young, there are not enough young ones in this industry. I still feel sometimes out of place when I take classes and am always the youngest one there so it is nice to see kids starting to love it
