Hi Quilty Friends! Today we are starting to sew the Small Leaves Block for the Prim & Proper Sew Along with Fat Quarter Shop! The Small Leaves Block is quick and fun to sew ... so it's a great week to catch up on Prim Flower blocks if you aren't finished yet.
I am SO EXCITED to make this quilt and I LOVE all things designed by Lori Holt! Be sure to keep reading for tips on making your block - including bonus blocks !
I'm making my Prim & Proper Quilt with mixed Lori Holt collections as I couldn't pick just one! Yay for scrappy sewing with Lori Holt Fabrics...here's a peek of the fabrics I will be using!
I love how all of Lori Holt's collections mix so well together plus Riley Blake Designs prints fabulous designs on quality fabric! Check out all of Lori Holt's fabrics available at Fat Quarter Shop (HERE).
Sewing Tips:
1. Use Alphabitties. They are so helpful in keeping your fabrics organized!
2. Use pins so your points match up. Magic Pins are my favorite!
3. Save the C / D / A trimmed off triangles. Sew the triangles together and make scrappy half square triangles. I trimmed mine to 3.5" and added them to my Lori Holt scrap bin! I used a Bloc-loc ruler for trimming for perfect half-square triangles!
Here's a peek at the finished Prim & Proper Quilt designed by Lori Holt. Fat Quarter Shop has the Prim & Proper Quilt Kit available that is the same as the Prim & Proper Book designed by Lori Holt!
The Prim & Proper Quilt is so fabulous!!! I'm having sew much fun making this one!!! I LOVE that the Prim & Proper Book is spiral bound!
