Block 24 - Patchwork Heart |
This week’s block will capture your heart – it is Block 24 ‘Patchwork
Heart’. Not only does it nest a heart
within a heart but it indulges every quilter’s passion for using up every last
scrap of fabric.
Scraps glorious scraps! |
I created the block using a single-fabric heart in the
middle but you could patch this heart by cutting an extra four A pieces and stitching them together into two columns of two.
Scraps coming together. |
What I particularly love about using scraps in this way is that it
really doesn’t matter if your seams don’t match because of the scrappiness of
the block – great if you are short of time or you can’t find your glasses!
Almost there. |
Wouldn't this make a great addition to a Valentine project?
Block 24 complete. |
Next week we will be using more scraps (rectangles instead of squares) as we make the Night and Day log cabin block.

Until then I look forward to seeing your versions of the Patchwork Heart (#block24patchworkheart) over on Instagram or in the Flickr Group. Just tag me (@thepatchsmith).
