week 4 Sew Along!

[maryq]

Everybody ready for an easy peasy block this week!?

Here it is: It's the BOWS block from the Underground Railroad book! If you don't have the book, let me know and I can talk you through the directions.. It's pretty easy,. 1/2 square triangles put together like my picture below. Each small block should measure 4.5" square 3 across, 3 down to make a 12.5" unfinished block



Holler if you have questions

Here is my version of the bow tie block.
I decided to do a different color arrangement.

I used only 3 different fabrics.
