WELCOME, WELCOME to the last month of Summer! This month the block was suggested by Velda after seeing Suzette's picture of the Garlic Knots block in the Photo Section.
Time to find and play with your Summer FUN Fabrics!! Flowers, Picnics, Fruits & Veggies, Beach, Kites, Beachballs, Ocean, Marbles, Pickup Sticks, Sports, Anything SUMMER! You Do Not have to use Novelty's.
BLOCK: 12.5" Garlic Knots. This is NOT a forgiving block so please watch your cutting (3.5" strips and 3.5" squares) and seam allowances.
FABRICS: Novelty, Prints, TOT's ... need GREAT CONTRAST. White TOT for Background
Here is my sample. It is an easy block but you still have to be careful. My seam allowance was to big for my first block.
Image
* I cut strips of White TOT and Main Color. Sew together, cut into 3.5" x 6.5" segments. You need 4 per block
* Cut strips of 3.5" x 7.25 of main color and contrasting color. Sew together, cut into 3.5" x 6.5" segments. You need 2 per block
* Cut (2) segments of 3.5" x 6.5" of White TOT for top and bottom row
See picture to arrange rows to sew together. There are many ways to make this block. Use which way you desire to enjoy making this block.

BEFORE MAILING---
* DO NOT SQUARE YOUR BLOCKs
* Place your Name TAG or address label with your name in the FRONT UPPER LEFT CORNER
* Place ALL blocks in ONE Plastic Bag
* Send $2-$3 to help send blocks to winners, please
* ALWAYS MAIL with a TRACKING NUMBER

WAYS to RECEIVE your WINNING tickets ...
* 1 ticket = Let me know if you are interested and send blocks
* 1 ticket = for every 12.5" block
OPTIONAL:

I would also like to join for this block.

I, like Velda and Jacquie, have been trying out the pattern this morning. I agree with Maryz that this will be a very nice connector block like the Irish chain does.

I think I will try some floral fabrics also. :)

Have Fun,
Linda S / OASIS

I edited this to show that I changed the center to be a brighter block.


I wasn't sure I could do this from my phone, so here it goes. I don:t know how many I will make to send.
HUGS, 💕 Vel

Welcome Linda - Glad to have you with us! Florals are beautiful! Have FUN

Welcome Flo - I sure hope you can find your sewing machine. You have been missed but I know how much moving and unpacking time can be.

Jacquie - WONDERFUL blocks! Very delicate and pretty :) :)

Velda - Wonderful block as well. I will have to learn to post from my phone as well. Hope you had a great time dancing last night :)
