BH4, Blocks 20, 21 & 22
Here are the next three Blockheads 4 blocks from my weekend catch-up sewing! I will confess that my brain is now a blockhead’s brain. I can only think and talk with words that include triangles, rectangles, or squares! #20 Stop-Go Block number 20 is brought to us from Stacy Lest Hsu. If you’re familiar with her designs, you know that this block represents her perfectly. Her fabrics and patterns delight children and parents all over the world! I’ve made quite a few myself for my grandkids. This block reminded me of red light, green light, the game so many of us played growing up! I jumped at the chance to…

BH4, Blocks 15, 16, 17, 18 & 19
I have recently discovered that if you lock yourself in your sewing room and pretend you’re not home, you can get a LOT of sewing done! That’s what I did last week to catch up with my Blockheads 4 blocks.

BH4, Blocks 12, 13 & 14
Here’s some news for those who are sewing along on Moda’s Blockheads 4: Once you finish Block 14, you are halfway through the quilt! Let me re-word that; you are halfway through the designer blocks. You’ll need to choose two bonus blocks to have 30 blocks. When I started this sew-along, I was only going to make 25 blocks. But now I’ve changed my mind, and I’m going for all 30. This quilt will be for me; I don’t get to do many of these. The colors I’m working with are feminine, and the blocks are designed by friends. Who can ask for more? It may be taking me forever,…
