15 Classic Quilt Blocks {with new modern tutorials}

ByCaroline Fairbanks-Critchfield Updated on


I love classic quilt blocks! Each is a piece of our history as quilt makers and artists. You can make a whole quilt out of a single repeating block, or make a sampler with lots. Use reproduction fabrics to make a quilt like your great, great grandmother could have sewn, or  stitch them up with fresh modern fabrics and the blocks come alive again in new ways. 

Last year and this, I had fun writing tutorials for 15 of my favorite classic quilt blocks. Okay, the last one is more like my take on a classic. 🙂 

Blend Fabrics provided great fabrics for them too. I thought it would be handy to have links to all 15 tutorials in one place. So here you go… click on each picture to visit the tutorial.
