Hello, friends! Thanks so much for stopping by for the Quilt Block of the Month February 2024 block post. I’ve been so grateful for all of the positive response to this year’s block format and the sew along! Keep reading for all of the details for this month’s block along with some extra information on my setting.
Quilt Block of the Month February 2024
February Block Details
The February block contains an antique basket block in the center. You’ll have lots of options for playing with colors for these fun blocks. And this week’s block is very easy: you’ll make just two flying geese units for the basket units along with two half-square triangles. The other pieces are squares! Please note that the directions for the outer star points are included on the January pattern. Download the February block here or click on the button below.

Strawberry Lemonade fabric is available now, and so many of you have reached out with questions about the finishing fabrics I’m going to use. The fabrics below are what I’m thinking about using. I could change my mind, but this is the direction I’m looking at now:

I can’t wait to get my magazine. I’m very excited about the pattern. The quilt is so pretty. I downloaded the February bom and went to the link that says the flower quilt pattern is on sale for $5. But it is marked ten dollars on the Etsy site. Can you help?
