Block 4

Churn Dash Blocks are finito!

I think they came out great… I’m biased:)

They are super simple and easy to put together!

These baby blocks are just tooooo cute!

Just head on over to The Jolly Jabber blog by Fat Quarter Shop. The pattern is FREE, but proceeds are going to the Make a Wish Foundation, so donations are encouraged.

They are sold out of the Threadology Quilt Kit and Backing set so if you are just joining in, you can find the full fabric requirements HERE to make a Threadology Quilt just like theirs. I am loving seeing all the different varieties of fabrics used in these quilts.

Churn Dash

Churn Dash Quilt Block

These Churndash blocks are one of my latest projects that I have started. I love this traditional pattern and it has been on my to do list for a long time!

The Churn Dash block is also known by several other names:

Monkey Wrench
Hens and Chickens
Lincoln’s Platform
Shoo Fly
Hole in the Barn Door
Fisherman’s Reel
Broken Plate
Love Knot
Ludlow’s Favorite
Quail’s Nest

My original plan was to make all the blocks the same, that seemed a little boring so I decided to do a reverse block and still keep it a two color quilt.

This is actually a very easy pattern, just some half square triangles and some strips.

I loved this fabric design! It is Add it Up by Cotton and Steel.

I pressed most of the seams to the side, but the two larger seams when finishing the block I pressed open just to reduce some of the bulk. This will help when you get to quilting this quilt. The needle doesn’t love super bulky seams.
