Hourglass 1 quilt block...


                                      This is the block I decided to do next, the hourglass

 
choose your fabrics
You will need three colors
I choose black,pink,red all with polka dots.
these are all fat quarters I found that I liked at Walmart...
Next decide on how big the squares will be
I did 3 inch squares

 
next lay out the pattern
I tried cutting the two squares that have two colors into 3 inches
but that didn't work for me so they are 3 1/2 inches square
 

 
sew the two color squares together and then lay out pattern
 
 
 
then start sewing up

 

 
all rows are sewn together...now sew rows together
 
 
two rows together
again I cant do my points

 
the finished block
see how simple that was...
 
hmmm ....what block to do next ?
