April Block - Guild Meeting - April 9, 2022

This block was submitted by Liz Scott. 

The original 3 inch block was designed

by Bonnie Hunter. 

These instructions will make a

SIX inch (finished) block. You need small pieces

of fabric for this, so it's great for scraps!

​

​

​

From your background, cut 4- 2 1/2inch squares

From your butterfly fabric, cut 3 rectangles 2 1/2" by 6 1/2"

​

Draw a diagonal line from corner to corner on the background squares

Place the squares on two of the rectangles, making sure they are oriented correctly.  Sew just next to the line on the seam allowance side to ensure the background will be large enough after stitching. 

You may cut away the extra layers or not.  I always trim one layer, but had to cut both to avoid the butterfly fabric showing through the background. 

Sew one "wing" unit to each side of the center rectangle. 

Press toward the center rectangle.

I look forward to seeing lots of bright butterflies at the April  meeting!
