Double Four-Patch in Blue and White

Sunday January 21, 2007
There's still time to participate in January's Beginner Block Lotto, one of the most popular quilt block swaps on the general Quilting Forum. This month we're making a double four-patch block that's sewn in a combination of white-on-white and blue -- but in two different pathways. The instructions include options for a pair of blocks -- and more just in case you want to stitch up a bunch for a large quilt.

Kathy, look in the left column for a link that says either “Forums” or “Message Boards.” Click through on that and create an ID and password (quick and free). You’ll be directed into the general forum. Once there, explore a bit. You’ll see folders and individual discussions. We have “unsewn items” and “sewn items” swaps. Post a message in a conversation if the swap looks interesting to you. Hostesses will take it from there.
