April has arrived, Easter is also here and now the next block for our Star Scootin’ Quilt!
We will make several of these blocks depending on which size you are going to make. I will be making 8. But you may wish to make more later to add a border of them to the outside of your quilt to make it into a larger quilt.
You will need to cut the following to make one block. Just cut 4 or 8 of each depending on which layout you have chosen to make.
White cut 1 x 3.5″ square (8)
Pop Colour 1 x 2″ x 6.5″ (8)
1 x 2″ x 8″ (8)
Dark Grey 1 x 2″ x 3.5″, (8)

I hope you all enjoy making this block. I have and will continue to make the odd one here and there to get them all done. I have a week off my real job coming up so I am looking forward to doing some sewing and playing with my crafting area and I have a special quilt to quilt for a friend. I will show photos as I go.
