Block 20

When all 20 of your blocks are completed...

you will need to use your 

12 1/2" Trim-It Ruler 

to trim them down to 12 1/2" square.

I'll show you what my quilt top 

looks like as soon as I decide 

how I'm doing it and 

get it sewn together:)

Of course I will give you 

all of those measurements!!

I'm not sure what the date will be

 but I do know that it will be

 BEFORE August 20th which is when my

 Autumn Love Sew Along starts.

I have really loved making these blocks

 with all of my 

Sew Simple Shapes sets together.

I hope this series has helped you to

 see how versatile they are and to think outside of the box when

 looking at each shape...

and seeing new possibilities:)

Talk to you soon!
