Yesterday I finished the two quilt blocks for Craftsy’s Block of the Month online quilting class. Last month’s blocks were the asterisk block and the wonky pound sign block.
This month I continued with the same flannel, but added another coordinating color. The blocks for this month were the Balkan puzzle block (left) and the chunky chevron block (right).
Through the class, I learned how to make half square triangles using two methods to make these blocks. I like really like how they turned out. They were more involved than last month’s blocks, but the video and course notes made it much easier.
I am really enjoying making two different blocks each month. It feels like I am quilting with a friend because of the videos. I can pause the video, do the steps, and then start it back up again. I doubt a friend would be quite so patient. ;)
