Happy Friday! I'm sharing our Month 6 of the Love Letter BOM! Only the quilt top assembly left!
Month 6 is one block that we make multiple times! This quilt is constructed like a row by row quilt, we'll be making the blocks for one row this month!
It's not too late to join in the fun, you can get the pattern here or if you want to make this exact quilt, you can pick up a quilt kit here.
I am live streaming once a month on Saturday on my YouTube Channel starting at 12pm Central time for this quilt and you can sew along or watch it later. Schedule is located below.
Top tips for this block:
- Measure twice, cut once. There are some odd sizes in this block.
- When you are cutting on a diagonal, be super careful that the diagonal does not shift during cutting.
- For the squares with two diagonal cuts, don't move the pieces in the middle of the two cuts; instead, rotate the cutting mat.
- I added sizing for your blocks as you add the layers to help make sure you are on track. However, I don't trim my block until the very end.
- Use a design board to lay out the block in the correct orientation before sewing it together.
- Do not pull on the triangles while sewing them together, there are a lot of bias edges in this block.
