Quilt Block Mania- Pastel Clover- Complimentary Block Pattern for February

Pastel Clover Block

It’s Groundhog Day! Let’s hope he doesn’t see his shadow, or it will be six more weeks of winter. Soon it will be St. Patrick’s Day and we will be celebrating the wearing of the green. I’m sure our complimentary block of the month, Pastel Clover, will help you celebrate in style.

 

This month, we are offering 20% off of our digital download Zany Zasu and Glorious Garbo quilt patterns. These patterns were both designed with our first fabric line with QT Fabrics, called Coco Chic. This fabric line was inspired by authentic 1920’s fabrics from the QT Fabrics archieves. The link to these patterns is here: downloadable-patterns/

I still love eating that cereal with those little pastel marshmallow bits. Magically Delicious, I’d say!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is the Pastel Clover block.

It features a shaded pink four leaf clover, surrounded by orange and yellow. It is criss-crossed with a green Irish chain. This block will put you in a festive mood for St. Patrick’s Day.

You could turn this block into a table runner. This would be a fun gift to give someone, or for you to use to decorate your home, on St. Patrick’s Day.

You also can turn this block into an awesome quilt which measures 50 x 50.” You start with 16 Pastel Clover blocks and then add a 1.5,” unfinished, dark pink border. The total yardage required to make this quilt would be: 1/2 yard, each of light green and green; 3/4 yard, each, of orange, yellow, and light pink;  and finally 1 yard of pink, which includes the border. Backing not included in these yardage estimates.

If you would like to see a video on how to use the Folded Corners Clipper Ruler by Creative Grids and how to do some of the piecing, we just posted such a video on our YouTube Channel, which is located here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYcbKCaeszs
