BLOCK OF THE WEEK : FREE
DIFFICULTY LEVEL ‣ BEGINNER
FINISHED BLOCK SIZE: 15″ X 15″
Isn’t this a charming name for a quilt block? The pattern dates to the mid- to late-1800s, and the moniker brings to mind an ancestor of yore going through her scraps of woven fabrics she used to make shirts for her family. The large 15″ blocks make it an ideal quilt for a beginner. Go through your “odd scraps” to make this fun block, and be sure to check out the antique quilt that features full instructions for making a quilt with this block.
