Block of the Month: Winter Nights Drawing December 6Susan Katus and Jo Ann Aulick
Win
a village of houses glowing warm and snug on a winters night. Your name goes
into the hat for each block you submit. A
pattern for an 8" square finished block (8 l/2" unfinished) is
provided. Cut the pattern into templates, use it for foundation piecing, or
rotary cut. There are no seam allowances shown! Add them! Any form of
applique is OK, too.
Think blue. Raid your scrap basket for different prints for the house's front, side, and roof. The sky can be a night blue, snowy day blue, starry blue, whatever.
The lights are on and welcoming: let the windows and doors be yellow or even orange.
The house can face the other way or use your own pattern and give it different architecture; just make it finish at 8" square (8 1/2" with seam allowances.) Contribute 2 or 3 strips of the prints you use, about 2.5 x 9 " so the winner can make sashing.
