Album Churn Dash Quilt Block Pattern

The Album Churn Dash quilt block is a good choice for your own quilt, or for a group project where each person involved signs the center strip. It's an easy block to assemble -- perfect for beginners.

You'll find a blank block on page 3. Make copies and fill in the spaces with colors or shades of gray. Place multiple images side by side to preview your color value arrangement.

Change colors and fabric styles to suit your tastes.
