Heart Block Challenge

In my video tutorial, I share how to draft a very simple heart block in Electric Quilt.   I also share adding a new fabric collection from a manufacturer's website and posting your final block to Facebook.

Here are my blocks.

I purposes kept the blocks super simple, as I wanted you to play with this basic block and jazz it up.  What could you change:

• Using 9 patches in each of the sections.
• Inserting a square patch in the heart and trying Serendipity>Merge Block.
• Divide the heart using horizontal or vertical strips.  This could be in each quarter or overall in the simple heart block.
• Create log cabin-like piecing in the quarters or the overall block,
• Add applique.
• Let your creatively rule.

Once you created your block, post it to either the On Point Quilter page or Learning EQ Facebook group.  You will need to be a member to post to the Learning EQ group -- but just answer a few questions if you would like to join.
