Quilt Block of the Month #10: Martha Washington Star This the October quilt block of the month. We are getting closer to completing our Sampler quilt and I couldn’t be more excited! The Martha Washington Star is one of the prettiest quilt blocks that I have seen. I love it because it is so versatile and you can change the look just by changing up some of the squares like I did with the green corners. The fabric used on those squares is the Moda Grunge in Green. The other fabrics used in that block are Tula Pink Monkey Wrench fabrics. The purple Martha Washington Star is made from Riley Blake fabrics.

QUILT BLOCK OF THE MONTH: HOURGLASS (MODIFIED BLOCK)
In this tutorial, I teach you how to modify a simple 4 patch into an hourglass block. We already made the 4 patch in January when we first started. I wanted to start simple for those who might be beginners doing the sampler quilt along with us. As our skills have improved, I thought it was appropriate to modify this block. The hourglass quilt block is simple and looks great! In the coming weeks we will be preparing more blocks so that our sampler quilt can be finished in time for you to give as holiday and Christmas gifts to your loved ones.
