BLOCK OF THE MONTH: SEPTEMBER MODIFIED QUILT BLOCK

September 25, 2020 By The Crafty Author

BLOCK OF THE MONTH: SEPTEMBER

HOURGLASS – MODIFIED QUILT BLOCK FROM JANUARY

HOURGLASS QUILT BLOCK

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.
