Block of the Month Squares

Here are the last four quilt blocks I made for the Craftsy Block of the Month class.
These first two were the August blocks. The first is the Ohio Star Block.

 The second is the Double Star. I should have had more contrast between my center star and the solid fabric I used but I was running low on fabric pieces to choose from so I did it this way. 


These next two are the September blocks. We use the Drunkard's Path template to make this Chain block. I thought the curved piecing might be difficult but I enjoyed it and would love to do more.

The other September block is Cleopatra's Puzzle. I did it slightly different than how it was taught and I like the way it turned out.


Now I only have to make the October blocks and then we will start putting the blocks together into a quilt. I still need to buy my backing fabric though. I can't wait to see it all finished!

  1. Great blocks Sue! I like how you did the last one. Maybe you should rename the block to "Sue's Puzzle",since you changed it up a little.
