A Time for Joy Quilt

When I was perusing the EQ8 block library, I saw a wonderful block in the holiday collection.  Do you see a Christmas stocking when you look at this block?  I actually saw the letter J.

I then thought about how I could expand on the concept of this block by creating a series of alphabet  blocks with a candy cane ribbon in the block.

I searched the alphabet blocks and found a couple that I thought might work.

After some playing, I realized I couldn't nicely just add the candy cane stripes.  So I decided to just start from scratch and create the "O" and "Y" blocks in EasyDraw.

My video tutorial this week will share with you how to draw these candy cane blocks for yourself.

This quilt was colored using the Henry Glass Believe fabric collection.
