"VINTAGE CORSAGE BLOCK"
Welcome to week five 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"
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
I have already posted the
post which details all of the supplies
for the sew along and how it works.
I have also given the link there
for the free PDF Download
of the Sew Along Guide

Today we are making a cute corsage!!
Here is my Vintage Corsage 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-7
8 - P-29
1 - P-62
Cut your background
12" x 12"
and press in half both ways
so that
you can center the corsage:)
After sewing and trimming up the
seam allowances you will need
to clip the cleavage
between the flower petals:)
Shaped and ready for arranging:)
I glued the flower
center onto the flower first:)
Because this is a symmetrical design ...
I was able to use the lines
from my pressed background
to begin placing the leaves first.
From point to point of leaves they measure
9 1/2"wide and also 9 1/2" tall.
Then the flower goes in the center!
Use this photo and the lines on your
10 1/2" Trim-It Ruler
to help you when arranging your corsage:)
Pinned and glued...
All ready for applique!!
Of course this goes without saying
because I said this in the first video
but let me mention it again...
applique in the method that you
like the best because
YOU are the BOSS of your own quilt:)
After you have appliquéd...
press your block from the back
and trim it down to
10 1/2" square to sew into the quilt.
