I have always love the cathedrial window quilt, but could get the grasp of doing it. Last week I found an embroidery design of it.
Here is a pic of the first block. I am going to make a lap size quilt and alternat the emb blocks with print fabric
One row will be yellow emb block with the pink fabric and the next row pink emb block with yellow fab

I'm going to add a border with smaller cathedrail blocks

Itis real easy to do. Just looks hard. the hardest part is trimming round the window I have a sharp pair of thin cruved sissors just pull up a bit on the edge of the fabric so you can get close when you trim

n2scraplvr 09-04-2010 03:29 PM

Just gorgeous! Looks better than the CW block!! :D :D

sewaholic 09-04-2010 05:10 PM

I had to buy it too. Not sure when I will get around to trying it out. Keep posting your pics of blocks - it will inspire me.

dkabasketlady 09-05-2010 06:59 PM

I laid out 4 of the block with the borders for an idea of what it will look like

Love the purple block. The cathedral window is one of my favorite blocks but i have never had the courage to try it. Maybe someday.
