Week 47 - Simple Pleasures

Hi there - this weeks block is called Simple Pleasures and I have made our blocks using just two fabrics. What a simple but very effective design. This is definitely a block that I would love to use in a scrappy quilt and have already grabbed some fabrics to make a start.

I’m not sure of any history for this block and it’s origins but I really like it. I would love to know if anyone knows where it comes from.

For the 6” block we have used just one of the units and I decided for the 12” block to make it using four units and a very different layout. The pattern has the layout for both blocks.

Have a fantastic week and we will be back with the next block this week.

Take care, Christine
