Lyn Brown's Quilting Blog

The response to this new Block of the Week has been tremendous. Thank you!  It’s going to be a fun year so follow along!

I love this block!
As the youngest of five children, the Quintuplets block has special meaning. Do you see the five pinwheels?  To make this block you need an accurate 1/4″ seam allowance and a bit of organization.  This instructions spell it all out, so just click below to get started.

By the way, as we have been discussing this project in class, I started to think there may be some opportunities to use a printed Christmas fabric motif in a few of these blocks.  Almost every quilter has a bit of Christmas fabric stashed away, so start thinking about it.  If you have a favorite fabric dig it out.  We’ll find a place for it in this quilt.  For the whole supply list, look here.  If you missed the first block, the Striped Ornament, it’s here.

And here are the instructions for the Do You See Block 2 Quintuplets
