Bee Vintage Sew Along - Week Six - Vintage Pennsylvania Dutch Block!!

"VINTAGE PENNSYLVANIA DUTCH BLOCK"

Welcome to week six 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

Today we are making the

Pennsylvania Dutch Block!!

Here is my Vintage Pennsylvania Dutch Block 

 All cut...traced and ready to go!

Here is a list of the

  Bee Vintage 

Sew Simple Shapes 

needed for this block:

4 - P-10

4 - P-28

1 - P-63

4 - P-65

You will also need two 5" pieces 

of prepared 1/4" straight bias for stems  

Cut your background  

12" x 12"

and press in half both ways

 to help with placement during layout:)

After sewing and trimming up the

 seam allowances you will need to 

clip each cleavage area 

in the tulips and leaves. 

There are no inner curves:) 

Shaped...pressed and ready for layout:)

I started by placing the aqua leaves

and lining them up with the 

points on the pressed centered creases.

Then I placed the stems centered in-between.

The leaves are about 1" apart.

Then I placed the center circle.

I used my 10 1/2" Trim-It Ruler

in-between each of these steps to make 

sure everything was lined up and centered.

And I continued to use the ruler

to line things up as I placed 

the green double leaves 

and then the flowers.

Mine measured about 10 1/2"

diagonally from the tops of the flowers.

And from the edges of the

 green leaves measures 9 1/2" wide.

Pinned and glued...

And now ready for applique:)

After you have appliquéd...

 press your block from the back 

and trim down to 

10 1/2" square to sew into the quilt.
