Bee Vintage Sew Along - Week Two - Vintage Maple Leaf Block!!

"VINTAGE MAPLE LEAF BLOCK"

Welcome to week two of the 

"BEE VINTAGE"

Sew Along!

Join me here each week 

when I will be doing 3 tutorials

 on three blocks for the quilt.

Of course because we are all sewing 

from all around the world  

we all have different time zones...

But I will be posting each 

Monday - Wednesday - Friday 

right here on my blog 

and you can follow my tutorials 

any time during the week that 

 is convenient for you.

We are making the 

Bee Vintage Sampler Quilt

71" x 84"

 

I've been getting ready for

when it was time to begin...

and now that time is here!!

The quilt is made with my fabric

 collection called Bee Vintage...

and a few other prints from my basics collections as well!

I hope that you all have all 

received your 

fabric kits by now...

 and that we are all ready to begin!!

If you still need one ...

just do a quick google search for 

"Bee Vintage Quilt Kit"

to find shops who still have some left.

We are also using the

Bee Vintage

Sew Simple Shapes

 for the sew along and how it works.

Today we are making a maple leaf!

Here is my Vintage Maple Leaf Block 

 All cut...traced and ready to go:)

Here is a list of the

  Bee Vintage 

Sew Simple Shapes 

needed for this block:

1 - P-32

1 - P-33

***TAKE NOTE***

That you will need to 

trace the P-32 shape in reverse.

To trace in reverse...

simply turn the Sew Simple Shape 

over so that the right side 

(you can tell from the printing on the shape) is facing down and then trace!

Easy Peasy:)

Cut your background  

12" x 12"

Once again both shapes in this block

 have clipping to do before turning.

Inner curve on the stem and 

both inner curves and 

cleavage areas on the leaf.

Easy peasy and quick to prepare

 with only two shapes!

And just as easy peasy to lay out.

Pin and glue:)

10" long from point to point!!

Ready to applique...

Afterwards press from the back 

and trim to 10 1/2" square.
