| Block 23 - Stained Glass Cross |
This week’s block in the Patchsmith Sampler sew-along is a little bit of heave – Block 23 ‘Stained Glass Cross'. All that is needed is a little bit of reflection on quick corners which we first met when making the
Watermelon block back in week 3.

| Quick corners for Block 3 |
To create a Stained Glass Cross you will need to lay quick corners upon quick corners – which is quite simple to do and clearly explained in the book. If you choose your fabrics from within the same colour spectrum you will be sure to create a very pretty Stained Glass Cross.
 |
| Choose fabric from the same colour group |
However, you can create a 'Snowflake' version of this block by cutting your fabrics for pieces A, D and E from the same fabric and cutting pieces B from background fabric (there is no need for piece C).

| Block 23 - Snowflake version! |
So another relatively simple block this week and one that I hope to see over on Instagram (#block23stainedglasscross) and in the Flickr Group.
Next week it is back to
using up some scraps as we make a Patchwork Heart.

Until then .....
