Lotta Blocks 1 contains ten block patterns - a nice mix of traditional and modern. Each pattern has clear, step-by-step instructions on how to assemble the block, images of assembled blocks both side-by-side or with sashing, and in some cases, alternate assembly images e.g. shown 'on point'. Lotta Blocks 1 starts with unscrambling the terminology used in quilting and gives some helpful hints, tips and money saving ideas for your next quilting project. The ten blocks covered in book one •The Amish Star •The Bear’s Paw •Cathedral Windows •The Empire Star •The Log Cabin •Missouri Star •The Pinwheel •Square Deal •And a couple of scrappy crazy quilt blocks There are cutting guides for each block, showing fabric amounts needed based on either 6", 8", 10", or 12" blocks. As well as the ten blocks there is also a chapter on 'Building Blocks' with instructions for making 'Half-square triangles', ‘Quarter-square triangles’ and 'Flying Geese', used as components for many different blocks and designs. Another chapter on the Jelly Roll quilt top, and, just for fun, there is a bonus of some printable ‘Bare Blocks' in the last chapter, to really get those design juices flowing. Happy Quilting!
