Description:

Create two 6 inch (finished) Churn Dash blocks for your partner. A Churn Dash is an easy block we quilters all can make I think.

Here is a tutorial how to make a 6 inch (finished) block. The tutorial is for a hand sewn block but this is a swap for machine pieced blocks.

You can state 3 different colors below in the comment section. Your partner will make two 6 inch (finished) blocks in your colors.

If this swap sparks enough interest I will make it a monthly swap.

As this is a group swap, I'm not stating anything about who can join and with what rating (just no unexplaned recent 'ones'). I will angel if that's necessary. Please communicate with your partner (and me) if you are late for whatever reason.

nice idea, nice pattern, but to small of a block

Alphenquilts 01/10/2013 #

I know the 'average' block is 12 inch but I want to do something different :-)

Watching. Is the pic of one you made?

Alphenquilts 01/12/2013 #

Yes pandessa, that's one I made. It's one of my first hand sewn blocks.

I love churn dash blocks

Something in tan/cream/red or blue, or autumn colors, or blue & white, or spring colors would be fine. Any three fabrics that look nice together are fine. Batiks or quilting cottons are fine. Two different blocks is ok, too. Please use a plain block or tone-on-tone pattern (a pattern that looks solid when you stand back a little) for the center square - I'd like to embroider that spot. Thanks!

Anything in spring colors please. I'm really not hard to please.
