Weekly Free Quilt Block Pattern

Free Quilt Block from The Ladies Quilt Pattern

This quilt block is from my quilt book which started my quilt pattern company “The Ladies” quilt pattern book.

“The Ladies” are The Quilt Ladies. They quilt every Tuesday together and after years of doing that, they’ve decided to do a quilt pattern book. So “The Ladies” was born, a quilt block sampler pattern book with 68 – Eight by Eight Inch quilt pattern blocks. If you make the quilt as in the book the finished quilt measures 76″ x 84″ All straight pieced, all cutting and piecing instructions included. And NOW in Print and eBook

Quilt Block has a finished size of eight inches by eight inches.

Mending the Fish Quilt

Fixing a Loved Quilt

Last weeks, weekly quilt block was my fish quilt block I did for Husband. 
We have a culture here in our family of NOT giving up our quilts and here is how I fixed Husband’s fish quilt.
Laying out each place to repair
old quilt repairPinned it really good
old quilt repairAnd used applique stitches, by hand.
They were all on seams, fabric becoming weak?
I think YEARS of use. 
AND let me add…PLEASE press your seams to ONE side, DO NOT press as you would making clothes. I know it’s a thing now to press open, but DON’T you will only weaken the threads and seam.

Pin Wheel Around Quilt Block

This is one of my quilt block patterns and I named it,
Pin Wheel Around.

I took 2- five inch Charm packs and made all the blocks I am sharing. I don’t over think quilt fabric colors much…a light, a dark color.
I like the idea of cut, grab, sew! Just the way I’ve been lately. the gray and orange.
