Hello, friends! Today I’m sharing Moda Blockheads 4 Block 25+ Bonus Block 9. Both of these blocks are terrific blocks. I made Block 25 in just the 9″ finished size and Bonus Block 9 in the 4.5″ finished size. I have pattern links and tips for both blocks below.
Moda Blockheads 4 Block 25
Block 25 Pattern Link + Tips
This week’s block is a super cute heart in a star block shared by Vanessa Goertzen of Lella Boutique. I love the framed borders that just set off each of the sections of the block perfectly.
- First, go here to grab the PDF pattern from Vanessa or click the button below (remember that it might not be available until 8 a.m. CST).
- Next, you might want to use the Mini Simple Folded Corners Trim Tool Ruler to add the squares to the rectangles for the heart center.
- Finally, measure & carefully cut the pieces for the flying geese units. The corner units require simple piecing of squares and rectangles.
Bonus Block Pattern Link + Tips | Galaxy Block
- First, go here to get the Galaxy Block quilt pattern PDF or click the button below.
- I added ⅛″ to the squares for the half-square triangle units to allow for easier trimming.
- There are several suggestions on the pattern for making the Triangle in a Square units, and there are also templates provided for using foundation paper piecing for this part of the block. You can find my foundation paper piecing tutorial here.
