This is the first in a series of 3 videos where I will be making big 20" quilt blocks.
Each block pattern can be used to make a quick and easy quilt that comes together fast because the blocks are so big - perfect for beginner quilters!
These videos combined are also part of my Big Blocks Quilt Along where we will be taking all 3 of these big blocks and making one throw-sized quilt with them.
You can SIGN UP FOR THE QUILT ALONG at any time (including in the future!) here:

Here is the story of my visit to the Festival of Quilts 2024. This is the biggest UK Quilt Show and its held every August at the NEC in Birmingham, England.
I talk about the quilts I entered in the quilt competition, show you as many quilts as I could manage to take photos of - but there were loads more in every category than I could photograph! - and I also show you my quilt show shopping haul and talk about some of the lectures & workshops I attended.
