Our complimentary block of the month for Quilt Block Mania, during the month of November 2022, True North Block, is a great one for making a small quilt. If you like receiving the complimentary blocks from Quilt Block Mania, please share this with your quilting friends on social media (please ask them to sign up for their own copy) so the designers can continue to do this every month. The designers thank you for your support, through your purchases of other patterns, which allow us to offer these complimentary block patterns each month.

During November 2022, we are offering 20% off one of our newest fall inspired patterns. It is the Hey Jude quilt pattern. The link to this pattern is here: downloadable-patterns/

This is the True North Block. This block features a gray and white compass, with red and black pointers, set on a green background.

The True North block would makes a great 33″ square quilt with a 1″ finished black and red sashing and a 1″ finished gray inner border and a 3″ finished green outer border.
