Week 26 - Shoo Fly Block

Wow, here we are at Week 26 - half way through our Sew Along for 2020. It has flown by! How are you doing with your blocks?

Don’t worry if you are a wee bit behind, they will be up on our blog for a long time.

This week we are making the Shoo Fly Block. It does look quite a bit like the first block we made - the Churn Dash block. If you go back and and have a look you will see the differences.

After all the small piecing in the last few blocks, it was kind of nice sewing a quick wee block.

If you are wanting to have more you your 12” block, you can always make four 6” blocks and sew those together to make the 12” block. Always options.

Here are a few quilts for some inspiration for your Shoo Fly block.

Okey dokey, that’s me for this week. Hope your weeks goes wonderfully well. See you back here next Wednesday.

Take care, Christine
