Nice block. Can't wait to get started on mine. Need to clean sewing room first. LOL

Blockheads No. 3 and 4 are already out. If you miss anything, just google Moda Blockheads with the
number you're missing and it should take you right there.

I signed up last week for the emails but I haven't started the blocks. I have a lot of smaller pieces so will be doing scrappy when I get started.

I've be keeping up with the downloads, but haven't start cutting yet. These blocks are smaller than what I am use to.

Ok, I would love to do this but would like to have fabric requirements. I know this is scrappy but I'm just one of those quilters that need a general idea of fabric. I've look but just can't seem to find a link for that, Can anyone help?

Here's the yardage info.
Scrappy! That’s one thing all six of us have in common – we love scrap quilts, the more fabrics the better! Most of the designers will be making a quilt using their own fabric collections… but there are a couple who are already whispering about making more than one quilt. (Rumor has it that a few of the designers will be offering “starter packs” of their fabrics.)

If you know you’re going to want to use a single collection – I’d start with at least 24 fat quarters and 3 to 4 yards of background

I've done the 1st three. The 4th is out but I haven't had time to do it. I also want to do a bit of applique on it as a gal did on FB. Am doing mine with scraps of civil war repros. If I can figure out how to post, I will. I need to look up the directions.
