Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Block X

 Westward Ho!

 

It's week 24, and this week we have Block X in the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along!

 

Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Block(s) X

 

These blocks will be your border blocks for the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Sampler quilt, so you'll be making quite a few. It's a split flying geese block and although it looks rather complex, it's actually very simple using the instructions you'll find in Prairie Patchwork.

 

Ma's Sewing Basket

The split flying geese border is the same border used for Ma's Sewing Basket, a small quilt found in Prairie Patchwork. The flying geese "points" are oriented differently, pointing away from the quilt center in Ma's Sewing Basket, versus pointing toward the quilt center in the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Sampler, giving it a different look.

 

If you get behind making your blocks this week, never fear, next week I'll be posting Block Y, which will be a breeze, so you'll be able to catch up!

Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Block(s) T

 Blocks T, in addition to Blocks U through Z, will be your spacer blocks, which will, in turn, be used to construct spacer units. The spacer units will be "fillers" between the previous blocks A through S when assembled into the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along sampler quilt.

I will post the download with the instructions for the final assembly after Blocks A through Z have been posted.

I so look forward to seeing everyone's interpretation of the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Sampler! Please feel free to tag any photos of your progress on Instagram or Facebook with the hashtag #prairiepatchworkquiltalong!

Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Block S

 Westward Ho!

 

It's week 19, and this week we have Block S in the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along! Block S is a bonus block pattern, which you won't find in Prairie Patchwork, but is very much a part of the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along sampler quilt. Enjoy!

 

Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Block S

The large appliqued Block S will finish to 15" square. You'll be printing out 10 pages, which will include 4 pages with the full scale applique diagram in sections to fit together. I appliqued my shapes by hand, but feel free to apply your shapes by machine if you prefer.

Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Block R

 Westward Ho!

 

It's week 18, and this week we have Block R in the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along!

 

Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along R

 

This week you'll be making just one lonely little shoofly block - Block R! Piece of cake!

 

If you've been participating in the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along, you will by now have quite a stack of instructions, if you've printed them out. If you've printed them out, you may also have compiled them into a notebook, like I have.

I have the completed quilt printed onto an 8 1/2" x 11" piece of paper, and inserted into the clear sleeve on the front of the notebook, which makes a handy quick reference:

Q is for quilt, and we are so close to finishing blocks for the Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Sampler. Hint: after this week, there are just 2 more unique what I will call "premier" blocks.

Prairie Patchwork Quilt Along Block P

 

I designed the green fabric used in this block to imitate as best I could some of the faded greens you see in many mid-nineteenth century red and green quilts.

 

Just the one block this week! Happy sewing!
