Here is week 7 already! We are really moving right along with these weeks and Quilt Blocks. I have had so much fun coming up with these Quilt Blocks!

Introducing my version of making a Drunkard's Path Block into a Quilt Block. This is not hard. The only circle sewing is sewing on the yoyo to a background square. You can put it under the sewing machine needle and slowly turn it as you sew it on or you can hand applique it. As long as it is secure it is up to you how to put it on. I have never used fusible webbing but you could use that to help you sew the yoyos on. Whatever you are comfortable with and as long as it is secure.

You can find all the Block directions except the Combination Blocks here in the Virtual Section. I will get the Combination Blocks added to this section soon. But for now you can find them on my web site.

So here are the Blocks for this week. (BTW Stella was my great grandma's name!)

I would welcome any suggestions for names from the 40s and 50s. or earlier. I like the old fashioned names for these blocks. They just seem to go together!
